There is no doubt that "Orange is the New Black" is among the most popular shows at the time. While fans are looking forward to seeing the upcoming season, here's the latest news we have about the show and its characters.
Uzo Aduba earned a much-coveted Emmy award for her breakout role in "Orange Is The New Black." The actress who played Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren in the show as a little bit stalker-ish towards Piper in the first "OITNB" season 1. However, the character slowly transformed into a seriously endearing member of the Litchfield community.
Aduba made an appearance on the Ellen DeGeneres show where she disclosed how she landed the role in "OITNB," Melty reported. "I had never auditioned for television of film or anything like that, but I had been trying to be an actor for ten years," she said.
She even shared that she turned up late to her "OITNB" audition. "I felt like it was the universe telling me that this wasn't for me," she explained. Maybe part of her was correct and the other part was wrong. On the night she got home from the audition, she received a call. She didn't get the role she auditioned for which was Janae, but she was offered the role for Suzanne.
The host asked her: "How did they know you could do 'crazy eyes'?" Aduba just replied with "I don't know!" Well, this is an incredible year for the actress. After winning an Emmy last year, she received nominations for Golden Globe and SAG.
Meanwhile, it is official, Laura Prepon returns for "OITNB" season 4. In the last season, her character was attacked by a group of people who she believed was associated with the other inmates at Linchfield prison. In the said encounter, she almost got killed. She survived and will seek the person behind the assault.
International Business Times reported that the cast was recently in a photo shoot and their Instagram account is giving followers a glimpse of what to expect in the anticipated TV series. The photos featured Poussey (Samira Wiley), Lorna (Yael Stone) and Crazy Eyes (Aduba) with Mr. Caputo (Nick Sandow). Another photo showed Alex (Prepon) with the caption, "Vause alert."
Prepon already confirmed that she will be returning in "Orange Is The New Black" season 4 and fans will see a more cautious and vigilant Alex. "I don't think you're going to see a more timid side of Alex. If anything, she's justified in her paranoia. ... That empowers her, in my opinion," Prepon told TV Guide.
"Orange Is The New Black" will return in the small screens in 2016.
