"She's interesting, people like her so much because she's so lovable and adorable and sweet. Plus, she has a cool accent!"

Accordiing to People, Laura Prepon, whose character Alex is involved in a love triangle with Rose and Schilling, echoes Schilling's sentiments toward their newbie costar.

"Everyone's personality is so awesome and everyone is so easy to work with that she just fit right in. Our show lends itself to always having new, interesting characters come in, this year there was no shortage of that," she told People. "I got to basically call her Justin Bieber on camera. I didn't call her that off camera, though!"

Casting director Jennifer Euston said, "Rose's "dangerous" vibe and gorgeous looks (not to mention some serious Aussie swag!) have endeared fans and the other actors to the new character."

"She's attractive to everybody, boys and girls. Everybody loves the bad girl, the one who you don't know exactly what's up," said Euston. "The one with a little edge, that's always appealing to an audience."

Euston said, "It was a no-brainer for me and writer Jenji Kohan to put Rose in the show," according to People. Euston was nominated for a 2015 Emmy award for her casting.

"When we saw her [audition] tape, she was exactly what we wrote for that character," she said. " As soon as I saw her on the screen I was like, 'Got it!' I also thought it was fun that she was from Australia, because there was a worldly twist. People around the world watch this - so why not make it a little more international?"
