The end coming for Orange Is The New Black, but how soon?
The Netflix prison drama is renewed through Season 7, but star Danielle Brooks admits the show is “closer to the end than the beginning,” per Variety:
I don’t know. I am dreading it. Whatever happens, whether we go on for five more years or whether season seven is the last year, I’ll go on the ride. I’m down to see where this takes me because this is still the beginning of my career. This is my first major break. It’s given me so much. My heart starts feel a little heavy knowing that we might be coming to an end because, especially with my character being a little bit more isolated from all of the other main characters on the show, it’s sort of like damn, can I just rewind the tape real quick? Can I just rewind time and take in those moments a little bit more? To spend more time with my girls, to really soak up those moments that we got to create together.
At this moment, you just don’t know if this is the end or not, so you’ve just got to really cherish every 5:00 a.m. call. You’ve got to really cherish those hours that you’re just sitting in the cell with Nick Sandow or sitting in the cell with Taylor Schilling waiting for them to fix the light. You really have to embrace all of those moments, because it’s going to be the end. I don’t know when, but I feel like we’re closer to the end than the beginning.
Will Orange Is The New Black conclude with Season 7 as expected, or will the show lock an 8th season or beyond? Stay tuned…
