Netflix hit series "Orange Is The New Black" author says season 3 will "hold some really amazing stories and twists and turns."
Piper Kermain is sharing her insight into the OISTNB Season 3 saying the upcoming season will feature backstories for some of the character and will introduce new "very intriguing" characters.
The show is about a woman serving time in federal prison for carrying a suitcase stuffed with drug money to her ex-girlfriend.
Kerman said shooting for its third season is more than halfway through but she can't offer spoilers or a release date.
The memoir author is a consultant on the show, reading scripts and offering her advice on how to make it realistic.
But she did not offer any inside scoop for the season 3 release on Netflix.
Kerman is mum in the issue if show's big antagonist, Vee, is still alive.
"One of the things that Jenji Kohan has said about season 3 already on record is that an exploration of faith is a big part of what she is planning and what they have scripted so far," Kerman said before addressing more than 400 students, faculty members and fans at the University of Massachusetts in Lowell on Tuesday.
Kerman spent 13 months in a federal minimum-security prison in Danbury, Connecticut, just over a decade ago for her role in a money laundering and drug trafficking ring.
"The truth is that I caused my family and the people that love me most a great deal of pain and worry," she said. "And the other fundamental truth is my actions caused other harm in terms of other people's substance abuse and addiction."
