The Trailer
Watch all the previews that have been released.
There Will Be New Faces
As you saw at the end of season three, busloads of new prisoners arrive at Litchfield, so clearly we'll be getting some new cast members. One has been announced: Jolene Purdy has booked a recurring role on season four, though it hasn't been revealed whether she'll play a new inmate or another character.
Two Stars Have Been Promoted to Series Regular
Before season three even started, Jackie Cruz, who plays Flaca, and Lea DeLaria, who plays Big Boo, were promoted to series regulars. This means we'll most likely be getting even more insight into Flaca's and Boo's lives.
Alex Isn't Dead
Season three ends with Alex facing off with one of Kubra's assassins, implying that he's about to shoot her. It's a cliff-hanger that makes us wonder whether she dies, but, great news, she's alive and well in the season four pictures!
Stella May or May Not Be Back
Season three breakout Ruby Rose played Stella, who was sent off to a worse place (max) by Piper. Though that could have been the end for Stella on the show, Rose gave us hope when we asked if she'd be in season four. "It could go either way," she said, which doesn't confirm it, but really doesn't deny it, either.
Piper Is in Deep Trouble
Based on the season four pictures alone, it looks like Piper may have gotten herself in too deep.
Sophia Has a Plain New Look
Sophia has it rough in season three, and it looks like things are about to get even worse. The new pictures show her without her long locks and signature made-up face.
The Premiere Date
Season four will come back on June 17.
