"Orange is the New Black" is bringing back Lori Petty (Tank Girl, League of Their Own) for the upcoming third season of the hit Netflix show. She will continue her role as Lolly, who Piper (Taylor Schilling) meets on a transport plane. Also announced guest stars appearing in "Orange is the New Black" Season 3 are Mary Steenburgen, Blair Brown, and Mike Birbiglia.
"Orange is the New Black" Season 3 is currently filming at their set in New York. The hit Netflix show is nominated for 12 Emmy Awards and Taylor Schilling is also nominated for 'Best Actress'. Tune in to the 66th Primetime Emmy Awards watch Seth Meyers host and see if the ladies come away with any hardware on Monday, Aug. 25 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on NBC.
Alex Vause (Prepon) was not seen much in Season 2 as she was in hiding most of the season. "All the girls are so close, I feel like I never left," Pepron said. "Or like I was there all of season 2. We all wanted me to be there for more of season 2." You can watch two separate interviews above, one with "Access Hollywood" and another with "Big Morning Buzz" with host Nick Lachey as she shares about the series as a whole and gives some insight into "Orange is the New Black" Season 3.
"Honestly, I would say that the fans are incredible and the fans of the show are some of the best fans I've ever come across and that we will exceed their expectations in Season 3 and I think that they're going to be really pleased," Prepon shared. Read full interview HERE.
The show is based around Taylor Schilling, who plays Piper Chapman that gets sent to prison 10 years after she got caught up in transporting drug money across international lines. "Orange is the New Black" is made by 'Weeds' creator Jenji Kohan, and is based on the true story of Piper Kerman's year spent in prison that she wrote about in her memoir.
"Orange is the New Black" became the latest hit series for Netflix after a surprisingly huge reaction to its first season this summer. Netflix has hit the right formula lately with the hugely successful "House of Cards" Season 1 & 2 releasing to great reviews as well. "House of Cards" Season 2 released earlier in 2014. "Orange is the New Black" Season 1 raised eyebrows for it's controversial yet honest portrayal of prison life for women that is not been discussed much in popular culture especially through a series.
"Orange is the New Black" Season 3 is set to release in June 2015 on Netflix.
"Orange is the New Black" Season 1 was released in its entirety (13 episodes) on Netflix exclusively on July 11, 2013 and Season 2 released in June 2014.
