A brief teaser clip for season two of Orange Is the New Black has been released.

Season two of the cult women’s prison drama is set to premiere on June 6, when Netflix will make all 13 episodes available for streaming, the teaser reveals.

Based on a memoir by Piper Kerman, Orange Is the New Black centres on a middle-class New York woman called Piper Chapman, now engaged to a man, who is given 15 months’ jail time after her former girlfriend, an international drug smuggler, grasses her up for transporting a suitcase full of drug money ten years previously.

Taylor Schilling stars as the not always sympathetic Piper, while Laura Prepon co-stars as Alex Vause, the former girlfriend who betrayed her and is now serving time in the same prison.

The supporting cast includes Taryn Manning as an inmate with a strong belief in God, Kate Mulgrew as a red-haired Russian prisoner who rules the roost, and Jason Biggs as Piper’s fiance.
