Laura Prepon will only be in one episode of the upcoming second season of Orange is The New Black.

Last month it was previously reported that the That '70s Show actress would not be returning to show as a series regular.

She was set to return only to finish her storyline in the hit Netflix show.
Now it turns out that Prepon will only be returning for a single episode, Celebuzz reports.

The TV actress only ever signed a one year contract and decided not to re-sign after the first season. It's assumed that her storyline would be finished quite quickly for that single episode. She has not been seen on set yet, though the show has started filming the second season.

There has been rumors that Prepon, who is a Scientologist, was pressured to not re-sign as the show portrays sympathetic lesbian and trans characters. Though that seems to have been discounted as other Scientologists have portrayed gay characters.

When E! Online asked Taylor Schilling about Prepon's exit dodged the question, instead saying, "I don't really know anything about that, I just know that she's an amazing actress and I've really had an incredible time working with her."
