There will be a couple of changes for the third season of "Orange is the New Black" and that includes Jason Biggs not reprising his role, as E! Online reported.

The actor himself, who plays Larry in the series, confirmed the news to NY Daily News. "They're not focusing on Larry at the moment," said Biggs. "Larry will not be in season three. But there's always a possibility he can come back."

Biggs has always been a part of the show even when it started. Larry was also engaged to Piper Chapman, played by Taylor Schilling, in the show. This love team was eventually split up because Piper got back together with her ex, Alex Vause, portrayed by Laura Prepon.

By the second season, Larry has already moved on with Piper's friend Polly, who was played by Maria Dizzia.

The crew is really getting smaller as Biggs will not be the only one to get out of the show. Pablo Schreiber, whose character is most famously known as Pornstache, would be leaving the prison as well, according to E! Online. He announced that he is no longer attending the show due to schedule conflicts with his other project "The Brink."

"I'm not taking part in the third season," Schreiber told The New York Post. "I'm a member of a show called 'The Brink' that's going to be on HBO. It's a half-hour comedy with Jack Black and Tim Robbins and me [as] the three leads. I'm really excited about it."

Schreiber, however, expressed his appreciation for the "Orange is the New Black's" production team.

"I respect [creator Jenji Kohan] to no end. I think she writes the best dialogue on TV right now. While season three is out of the picture, beyond that is open," he said.

He also sent a cliffhanger to the fans after he posted on Twitter saying, "For all the over-reactors: Just bc P-Stache won't be on Season 3, doesn't mean we won't see him again."

Matt McGorry, who fills in John Bennett's role in the series, will have to double this work this year as he tries to balance two appearances: "Orange is the New Black" and "How to Get Away With Murder."

"Generally speaking, I get to be present in both shows, which is sort of amazing," he told reporters at the 2014 TCA Summer Press tour. "I am allowed to do both, which is incredible and I think ABC giving me permission to do that is really quite wonderful...It's too early to tell how it's going to work, but same way as Pablo Schreiber in season two, you can shoot things out of order. Thankfully, I get to do both."

"Orange is the New Black" will be back on Netflix this June, according to Variety.
