‘Wet Hot American Summer’, ‘OITNB’ Get Release Dates For Netflix
Wet Hot American Summer and Orange Is The New Black are among some of the shows that have just gotten release dates on Netflix, via a post the company made on Twitter.
Orange Is The New Black has a huge, loyal fan following already, and the promise of more insanity in Season 3 has them all geared up. Jason Biggs, who plays Larry on the show, announced earlier this month that he won’t be coming back for the third installment, but didn’t rule out a future appearance.
“They’re not focusing on Larry at the moment. Larry will not be in [Season] 3. But there’s always a possibility he can come back,” Biggs told the New York Daily News.
Wet Hot American Summer is about as far from a prison dramedy as you can get. Based on the 2001 film of the same name, the 10-episode series will take place before the movie and is rumored to star several of the original cast members. The movie became an instant, quotable cult classic helmed by MTV’s The State‘s David Wain, who will serve as executive producer alongside Michael Showalter.
Besides starring several cast members from the State, Wet Hot American Summer is a veritable who’s who of some of today’s most popular stars, with Paul Rudd, Elizabeth Banks, Christopher Meloni, Amy Poehler, Molly Shannon, Bradley Cooper, and Janeane Garofalo all breaking out their comedic chops.
