‘Orange Is The New Black’ Renewed For Season 4; Check Out A New Season 3 Clip

Our stay at Litchfield Correctional Institution has been extended just a little while longer. Netflix has renewedOrange Is the New Blackfor Season 4, months ahead of its Season 3 premiere. And to get everyone extra-excited about the news, they’ve just released a new clip from Season 3 featuring fan favorites Poussey and Suzanne (a.k.a. Crazy Eyes).

Read about theOrange Is the New Blackrenewal and check out the Season 3 clip after the jump.

ActressUzo Aduba, who plays Suzanne, announced theOrange Is the New Blackrenewal on Good Morning America this morning. “Season 4 is now the new news,“she said. “In June we’re going to go back to work. Netflix just let us know we’re going to be doing a new season.”

While Netflix won’t release exact viewership numbers, it’s clearOrange Is the New Blackhas been a big win for the streaming service. The show garners tons of buzz and has even picked up some significant prizes, including PGA and SAG awards and a handful of Emmys. Renewing it seems like a no-brainer, though the decision comes a bit earlier than we might have expected.

Orange Is the New Black’s success initially came as a surprise, as it came with neither a familiar brand name (a laArrested DevelopmentSeason 4) nor a famous lead actor (a laHouse of Cards). But Aduba has a sound theory as to why it caught on:

In addition to the Season 4 news, there’s also a new Season 3 clip forOrange Is the New Blackfans to enjoy. While Vee is out of the picture, the effects of her reign of terror are still being felt among the Litchfield inmates. That includes Suzanne, Vee’s most loyal sidekick, and Poussey, Vee’s favorite victim. Poor Taystee continues to be caught in the middle.

And here’s the generalOrange Is the New BlackSeason 3 trailer released earlier this month. All of our favorite Litchfield ladies are back – even the ones that managed to get free at some point – and there are a few new ones besides.

All 14 episodes ofOrange Is the New BlackSeason 3 will hit Netflix onJune 12.
