Orange is The New Black season 6 trailer: It's chaos out there!
So.. the Orange is The New Black season 6 trailer is here, and first things first - where is Alex? And what is this place? What about Litchfield? Are we even there? What is this maximum security they speak of? And why do the blues have a beef with the khakis? There are so many questions revolving around the thrilling trailer of this Netflix original's sixth installment and clearly, it's going to take a while to get accustomed to the current, ongoing situation our favorite inmates seem to have trapped themselves in. But will they survive? Most importantly - are all of them even back?
"Where is Alex?" asks Piper, played by Taylor Schilling. And of course, we are finally grateful for her pointing out that Laura Prepon's character is missing. And almost as if following our minds, she shoots back: "Don't you think it's weird we're the only people in here?" And while Alex's obvious absence from maximum security has been duly noted, Suzanne (Uzo Aduba) also mentions: "This isn't home. This is not home." The price the ladies have to pay for the season five finale's riot!
"It's very different here. These girls are psychos. My bunkie, she does four poops a day," shares Lorna, played by Yael Stone who just gave birth back in June. And yet that somehow isn't the strangest thing this season; the officials they have been assigned to are looking all over for answers regarding the prison riot the previous season had ended on and they are ruthless about putting absolutely anything to anybody!
"They want us to go down, regardless of what we did or didn't do," says Kate Mulgrew's Red. And while it's a new, albeit dangerous world out there, Red proclaims: "You don't know how strong my girls are. We have iron wills and f—king nothing to lose."
Orange Is the New Black returns Friday, July 27 on Netflix with its signature light and dark humor and the trailer offers ample sneak peeks of the same.
For those unaware of the previous season's cliffhanger, Piper and Alex had just gotten engaged - and as fate would have it - they were awaiting the prison officers' arrival to serve them the consequences of the prison riot. Waiting with them were their fellow inmates Red, Nicky, Gloria, Taystee, Cindy, Suzanne, Blanca, and Freida. As for the rest of the inmates of Litchfield - they all got packed into separate prison buses and sent off to other prisons.
While Alex is the only one missing from the basement, additional inmates they find joining them in maximum security are Lorna, Daya, Flaca, Pennsatucky, and Boo, along with unofficial prisoner Linda.
While there aren't too many plot details spilled by the trailer, it sure does offer some insight into the sh*t that's about to go down - purely based on the colour of the inmates' clothes. But be it blue, khaki, or pink — all of them have to answer the lawyers for the prison riot from season five. So buckle up, because this clearly is going to be one bumpy ride!
