AMC Studios are behind this new instalment in the world of Orphan Black. The original show ran from 2013 until 2017 and consisted of 5 seasons. It starred Tatiana Maslany currently on our screens playing Jennifer Walters aka She-Hulk: Attorney At Law. That show followed Sarah Manning, a young woman who discovers that she is one of several identical clones throughout North America and Europe.

Orphan Black: Echoes takes place in the near future and explores the scientific manipulation of human existence. It follows a group of women — one of them Lucy played by Ritter — as they weave their way into each other’s lives and embark on a thrilling journey, unravelling the mystery of their identity and uncovering a wrenching story of love and betrayal.

The show has been confirmed as a spinoff and not a reboot of the original. Anna Fishko is the showrunner with Krysten Ritter as executive producer. The first season will consist of 10 episodes.

AMC have not revealed a release date for Orphan Black: Echoes but we expect it to be early 2023.
