Welcome2TheBronx has obtained EXCLUSIVE pictures of Monday’s filming of Orange Is The New Black.
Laura Prepon who’s name was made famous on ‘That 70’s Show’ and resurged to fame in the Emmy winning Netflix Original Series, ‘Orange Is The New Black‘ was in The Bronx today filming for Season 3 on City Island. Here’s an account from our dear friend and photographer, Elena ‘Mamarazzi’ Marrero of her day scouting the set:
“I got up early in the morning to shoot the filming of Season 3 of OITNB (I love this show) OK so now, Mamarazzi is in action. The only character in attendance was “Alex Vause” played by Laura Prepon.
The scenes they were filming were “Flashbacks” so they told me no other cast members would be there. I was disappointed. I wanted to see “Crazy Eyes!” I tried to get in through an open gate down the block but I was caught! OK so I had to shoot through the gate.
OK now off the next scene a couple of blocks away. It was going to be filmed inside a house, in the kitchen. I waited a while but then they started feeding the crew. I thought about it, haaaaa but decided to leave to have seafood instead so I went to Seafood City and had a delicious shrimp lunch.”
