Pornstache Not Returning To “Orange”
When “Orange Is the New Black” returns, it will be missing a little facial hair. Pablo Schreiber, who plays Mendez—a.k.a. Pornstache—told the New York Post that he will not appear in the show’s third season. It’s not a huge surprise, considering that the last time we saw his character—spoiler!—he was being carted away to prison. But then again, this entire show takes place inside a prison, so there’s that. Schreiber told the Post: “I’m not taking part in the third season. 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.†He went on to say that he was never a series regular on OITNB, which he is on “The Brink,” so really, “it’s a no-brainer,†he said. “It was a better move for me as an actor.â€
