"Orange is the New Black" is coming back for a fourth season. There have been speculations about characters who won't be returning in season 4 and now, latest news have claimed that there will be a change of personality with one of the hated inmates at Litchfield.

Natasha Lyonne's absence for season 4 is still a spreading rumor after that Christmas poem presentation video was released. The actress was noticeably absent from the clip. Also, Laverne Cox was initially rumored to be excluded in season 4. Her character was transferred to the Security Housing Unit in season 3 because of traumatic events. However, her presence in the video somehow gave an assurance to the fans that she will be back next season. "Orange is the New Black" followers are expecting to see regular cast members, though, namely Taylor Schilling, Uzo Uduba and Laura Prepon, once the season commences.

Two new additional characters are reportedly joining the cast of the hit Netflix series. According to reports, Shannon Esper and "Empire" star Jamila Velazquez will be seen in the premiere of the upcoming season.

Now, Melty reports that Tiffany Doggett's character, Pennsatucky, will show a change of her persona. If fans may recall, in season 1, she was the meanest inmate who the viewers hated because of her beastly personality. She also had an intense fight with Piper (Taylor Schilling).

After the traumatizing rape incident that happened to her involving officer Charlie "Donuts" Coates, she suddenly had a change of character. Fans are wondering if she will continue to be as mellow in the upcoming season. Or, will she return to her old self and plan her revenge on Coates?

No specific premiere date has been announced by Netflix, but the show usually premieres in the middle of the year. So fans may expect to see their favorite inmates sometime in June or July of this year.
