Aduba, who plays Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren on the popular Netflix series, spoke with Marie Claire about a variety of topics, including the show itself.

The actress echoed what previous people have said about season 3 in that it is about faith.

"This season, [showrunner Jenji Kohan] is interested in faith: What faith is, what we put our faith in, whether in the spiritual realm or in another human being," Aduba explained.

Aduba, who has won an Emmy and a SAG Award for her performance, said that Suzanne's honesty might be why fans feel such an attachment to her.

"She can't lie-all she can be is herself, for better or worse, and it's completely unfiltered and pure," Aduba said, of her character. "There's a freedom in that. I'm drawn to her ferocious loyalty, and her love: her willingness to love, and her aching desire to be loved."

The actress was asked about Suzanne's nickname "Crazy Eyes" and how it can have a hurtful intention behind it.

"Yeah, because she doesn't know what she's doing that's so crazy. Is she crazy for living her life fully, or are we crazy for judging her?" Aduba asked hypothetically.

Orange Is the New Black season 3 is scheduled for release on Netflix on Friday, June 12. All 13 episodes will be released at once.
