The 43-year-old actress was told she was 'too old' to play a middle-aged actor's wife.

"I was just informed that at the age of 43, I am TOO OLD to play the wife of a 57 year old," the Orange Is the New Black actress tweeted on Wednesday.

"Oh, the characters also have an 18-year-old daughter. I am TOO OLD to be the mother of an 18 year-old," she added. "The real wife of the 57-year-old actor is EASILY AT LEAST 50. But this f****r wants to be TV married to a 38-year-old -- TOPS."
