Netflix is releasing the fourth season of Orange Is the New Black on Friday, June 17. This and more was revealed at the TCA press tour for Netflix this weekend.

Orange Is the New Black showrunner Jenji Kohan spoke on the theme of season 4 and while she was "vague" about it, she did indicate "race and hate" has continuing themes.

"The theme thing was hard this year. Sometimes we start with political agendas, the corporatization of the prison, the stratification of the people into their little mosaic pieces within the prison," Kohan said. "I can't tell you much more than that because we want it to be a surprise but all the fun stuff like race and hate and some things from current events that we want to sort of filter through our lens. But I'm just going to be vague about it."

As for who might get flashbacks in season 4, Kohan continued to be vague but said that we'd get a mix of new people's flashbacks and those who have already had some.

"There will be some people you will get more," she explained. "Maybe some people you've already seen some backstories you'll get more and then some new people."

Samira Wiley, who plays Poussey Washington on the series, spoke about her excitement for season 4.

"This season, I feel really good about it and I want to be able to talk about it. It feels like we've got something really, really different than what we've put out before with this coming season," she said.
