Nicky Nichols, played by Natasha Lyonne, is one of the 10 inmates left standing in season five's cliffhanger finale, which is jam-packed with emotion. While speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Lyonne discussed what that scene might mean for season six. "It was very easy to feel the believability of not knowing what was coming through that door while holding hands with these people who I've been with for the last five years," she said. "We don't have the next script, so we genuinely don't know. We don't know if all of our characters die. If some of us die. We don't know if we kill everybody that walks through that door."
"I think we always feel like [anyone could die at any time]," she continued. "Across the board, I think we're always sort of weirdly ready, on some strange level. And if the show is mirroring the truth of society in any way, the reality is that insane things do happen on a constant basis. And often, consequence-free. Ultimately, it's true to the nature of the kind of storytelling that Jenji's doing to be truthful in her reflection of the world."
