Australian model Ruby Rose is joining the cast of “Orange is the New Black” Season 3 as the new “lust object” of both Piper Chapman and Alex Vause. It is expected that Vause will be returning to Litchfield prison, as she pointed a gun at her probation officer in the Season 2 finale.

Alex was set to violate parole and skip town. It is Piper who asked Polly to tip off her on and off lover’s probation officer. As previously reported, the relationship between the two is going to strain once Alex finds out that she is back inside the prison because of Piper.

Ruby is playing the character called Stella Carlin, a new inmate of Litchfield prison. The character has been described as someone "whose sarcastic sense of humour and captivating looks quickly draw the attention of some of Litchfield's inmates."

Laura Prepon, who plays Alex, is returning in “Orange is the New Black” Season 3 as a series regular and will be seen in each episode of the upcoming season. This means the fans are going to see more of Alex and Piper’s scenes.

In addition to Ruby, the other actors who are joining the Season 3 cast are Mary Steenburgen, Blair Brown, actor-comedian Mike Birbiglia and Marsha Stephanie Blake. Mary has been roped-in to play Pornstache's mom. The entry of the mother will happen in the absence of the son, as Pablo Schreiber, who plays Pornstache, has confirmed that he will not make an appearance in Season 3. Marsha has a recurring role as the new corrections officer. Meanwhile, Lori Petty is returning to reprise her brief role in Season 2 as Lolly.

Meanwhile, “Orange is the New Black” has scored big at the 2015 Screen Actors Guild Awards. Uzo Aduba took home the award for outstanding performance by a female actor in a comedy series. She plays Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren in the drama-comedy. The Netflix original series also won the best comedy ensemble award, ending four-year winning streak of “Modern Family.” Netflix may announce the premiere date of “Orange is the New Black” Season 3 in February. All the new episodes are expected to release in June.
