Netflix's Orange Is the New Black is losing one
of its leading ladies.
Laura Prepon will not return as a series regular when season two of the drama returns, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
As first reported by BuzzFeed, Prepon will only return to the Lionsgate TV-produced drama to wrap up her storyline, though the door remains open for the actress to return to the series.
"Our season is still developing and nothing is confirmed," a Netflix rep said in a statement. Representatives for Prepon declined comment.
It remains unclear whether Prepon's exit was her decision or a creative direction from executive producer Jenji Kohan.

Oh no! I wanted her and Nikki to get together.
ReplyDeleteWords cannot express how disappointed I'm right now. She gave subtle but powerful performance. She quietly became my favorite character and damn it, I loved Alex/Piper storyline!
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame, she is a very unique actress.
ReplyDeleteNetflix have spoken and said this is not true
ReplyDeletewhat do you mean?
ReplyDeleteWell, they (Netflix) said that "nothing is confirmed".
ReplyDeleteThe original article (buzzfeed) also stated clearly that she will be in s. 2 but her participation will be limited. And after season 2 she will leave the show, but "the door will be left often for her to return in the future."
Everything is so confusing, but something definitely is happening behind the scene...
thank you!
ReplyDeleteI just feel like this about a storyline. She will appear in season 2 but limited because of story. Netflix and Prepton can't say much because it maybe something major, plot wise which probably sparked interpretations like she's leaving but in actuality the story requires her to not be around for a bit or in a limited capacity for the time being. That's my theory on this.
ReplyDeleteI think she might be going "down the hill..."
ReplyDeleteThis is fine by me. I don't like her on this show nearly as much as many others seem to.
