As fans know, Netflix has decided to come up with a live-adaptation TV Series based on the show, and Oda has been part of the adaptation since the very beginning. The artist knows that adaptations based on the manga are not usually successful, as Netflix has tried in the past.
Since the series is immensely popular in the manga and anime community. Hence, Oda has decided to take the reigns into his hands, and he is being extra cautious with the TV series. Moreover, he has been overlooking everything with meticulous detail so that there are no complaints from the viewers of the series.
It is true that Eiichiro Oda is being cautious as he would like to make sure that the TV series also matches the popularity of the manga which has sold 516.6 million copies. Additionally, the series is aimed at an older audience, unlike anime and manga which aims at audiences of all ages.

Surprisingly, the picture fits well and if he is given some teal hair, he could play the role and even do justice to the character. Moreover, Oda had said in the past that Franky the Cyborg’s nationality would be American, so The People’s Champ could actually nail the role.
