Orange Is The New Black season 6: release date set

Orange Is the New Black will be back for season 6 on Netflix in July...

Orange Is The New Black season 6 is on the way! In a fit of Jenji Kohan-induced euphoria, Netflix picked the show up for seasons 6 AND 7 a while back, and we now know when we'll be getting the former - 27th July.

The brief tease announcing the date was extremely ominous...

What will season 6 look like? Well, for starters there will probably be plenty of cliffhangers. This is a show that really loves cliffhangers, and Orange Is The New Black season 6 followed the lead of the excellent debut season by introducing a massive, life-threatening cliffhanger in season 5. It's a fair expectation for that to be resolved when Netflix's smash hit series returns next month.

Creator Jenji Kohan previously revealed to DigitalSpy that only two of season five's writers were rehired for season six, saying she was a bit disappointed by season five's end result.

As for what else we can expect? Your guess is as good as ours for now. Netflix has been tight-lipped so far, but with this release date confirmation, we can smell the first trailer just around the corner.

Orange Is The New Black season 6 will land on Netflix UK on 27th July.
