When Orange is the New Black returned for a third season early on Thursday night, there was one glaringly obvious omission in the opening credits after the third episode – Natasha Lyonne’s name.
Lyonne plays inmate Nicky Nichols on the hit Netflix show and when Season 2 left off it was implied she might start her heroin habit again. Her name being left out of the opening credits after just a few episodes now has us thinking she won’t appear as a series regular in all of Season 3.
E! Online reports a spoiler that happens in the third episode of the new season and it’s after that that we reportedly won’t be seeing Nicky again.
Netflix wouldn’t comment on Lyonne’s future with the show and the actress herself hasn’t responded to the rumors on Twitter.
She did, however, joke about binging the third season,“Please remember to feed your children and walk your dogs. And HOMEWORK Kids!! Do your homework!! #OITNBS3.”
