Season 4 of the American comedy-drama TV series “Orange is the New Black” is just two months away from premiering on Netflix but the popular show has already been creating buzz online ever since its Season 3 finale last year.
The latest excitement about the show came from actress Kate Mulgrew, who plays Red on “Orange is the New Black,” when she recently said in an interview that fans need to buckle their seatbelts, alluding that it would be a thrill ride for them in the upcoming fourth season.
Mulgrew disclosed that series creator Jenji Kohan will be scrutinizing the prison system like it has never been examined before, reports the Digital Spy.
The actress made the revelation while at a Netflix event in Paris. She also added that there will be a lot of usual laughs like the show has been known for but everyone must buckle their seatbelts because there will be some interesting turns along the way.
Mulgrew also said that the fourth season of “Orange is the New Black” is going to be darker and that fans will be very surprised how dark the show can get. But nonetheless, the actress said that fans would be wholeheartedly engaged and they will also be riveted to the show’s fourth season.
Extended to Season 6
While “Orange is the New Black” is about to premiere only its fourth season on June 17, Netflix has already extended the show up to Season 6 as early as February, indicative of how confident and popular the show has become on the streaming service.
Mulgrew also confirmed the great future of the show because of Jenji Kohan. She says that everyone really finds it a great pleasure to be working with Jenji and like everyone else, she also looks forward to more of “Orange is the New Black.”
Meanwhile, Selenis Leyva, who plays Gloria in the series, says that the upcoming 13 episodes of Season 4 of “Orange is the New Black” is going to feature the rise of the Latinas.
In addition, the Latina actress also said that the show will be showing tons of shocks, twists, turns, and cliffhangers along the way, details Melty.
Also, based on recent teases made by some of the stars of the TV series on social media, “Orange is the New Black” Season 4 will begin all calm and tranquil. But it will build to other plotlines that will feature tension, betrayal, and a whole lot of bitch-fighting, which is very much the classic recipe for the success of the show.
There are also rumors that at least one character will die in the upcoming Season 4 of “Orange is the New Black” and fans are now speculating who it is going to be.
Recognizing a winner
Recognizing that it has a winner in “Orange is the New Black,” Netflix renewed the show for a fifth and sixth season even before the premiere of its Season 4.
Apart from being a top-rating show on the streaming service, “Orange is the New Black” is also a critically-acclaimed TV series so Netflix simply knows when to continue the streak and when to stop.
Some critics, however, believe that the show is fated to run far longer than six seasons but Netflix is already two steps ahead for now.
The streaming service has already released an official teaser trailer and still pictures of the fourth season of “Orange is the New Black” and it seems that there will be a lot of exciting times for the female inmates of the fictitious Litchfield Penitentiary.
The less-than-a-minute long teaser showed the women inmates watching a boring awards show and discussing not much of anything and showing that they were all in a relaxed situation, a sort of calm before the storm scenario.
But when Season 4 of “Orange is the New Black” debuts on Netflix come this June, many TV viewers will have a better time spending their summer without going outside and bash under the sun’s shining might.
