FOUND! Uzo Aduba (Crazy Eye from OITNB) and her audition for other characters on the show

Funny as heck!!

Uzo Aduba has proven to be a force to be reckoned with as Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren on Orange Is the New Black, but it almost didn't happen. Aduba said on Today that she auditioned for another role and originally was supposed to have a much smaller part. Thankfully, that changed, but Funny or Die is giving us a taste of what could have been and has "uncovered" Aduba's "leaked" audition reel.
In the video below, Aduba auditions for the roles of Taystee (with a Southern accent for some reason), Alex (where she drops the f-bomb a lot), Alex, Red, Poussey—which is just her doing a Lil Wayne—and more.
