Fans of Orange Is the New Black have plenty to look forward to at Comic Con Liverpool 2026. Three cast members from the hit Netflix series have been confirmed to appear at this year’s pop culture convention. The announcements began at the end of November with the confirmation of Laura Prepon (Alex Vause). This announcement alone sent fans into a frenzy, but just a few weeks later, the organizers revealed on their social media accounts that Laura Prepon would be joined by Taylor Schilling (Piper Chapman), who rarely appears at conventions. This will mark the first time the two main stars of the Netflix series have appeared together at an event.
As a reminder, Alex Vause and Piper Chapman share a passionate and tumultuous relationship that begins before prison, when Piper falls in love with Alex and becomes involved in her drug trafficking. At Litchfield, their reunion rekindles both love and resentment, leading to numerous breakups and reconciliations. Despite betrayals, distance, and their personal growth, their bond remains strong, and the series ends with the idea that their story continues beyond prison.
Both actresses will be at the convention on Saturday and Sunday, May 2–3, 2026. Laura Prepon and Taylor Schilling will sign autographs for £57.75, pose for solo photos for £57.75, and pose for a duo photo for £115.50. All options are available on the event’s ticketing website, alongside mandatory entry tickets.
As good news comes in threes, another major cast member was announced at the end of 2025: Dascha Polanco. Fans know her as Dayanara “Daya” Diaz, who arrives at Litchfield prison at the same time as Piper Chapman and is reunited with her mother there. Dascha Polanco will also attend the convention on Saturday and Sunday, where she will sign autographs and pose for photos (£42.00 each).
Many other guests have already been announced for Comic Con Liverpool 2026, including Gillian Anderson (The X-Files), Caleb McLaughlin (Stranger Things), and William Shatner (Star Trek). For more information, visit the Comic Con Liverpool 2026 page.
