Orphan Black Spinoff
Posted By:

AMC have greenlit a spinoff for Orphan Black, titled Orphan Black: Echoes.

AMC? Was Orphan Black one of theirs?

No it wasn't. It was by Canadian Temple Street Productions who also made the fantastic Killjoys and Being Erica.

In association with Canada's Bell Media and BBC America / Worldwide.

Temple Street will also be involved in this new one but it seems like AMC have revived what was assumed to be a dead sci-fi franchise from another service's stable.

Do we have any details about what this series will be about?

Set in the near future, the new Orphan Black takes a deep dive into the exploration of the scientific manipulation of human existence. It follows a group of women 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.

All women? So possibly clones again?

Orphan Black: Echoes is slated for a 2023 release on AMC+.
