It isn’t easy to follow in Orphan Black‘s footsteps. The original series followed Tatiana Maslany as over a dozen clones caught in a complex web of dangerous conspiracies. The show lasted five seasons, ending in 2017. Maslany won an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series in 2016.
Aside from casting information, there aren’t many details about Orphan Black: Echoes. We do know that it’s an original series set in the same world as the 2013 show. Krysten Ritter stars as Lucy, a woman with mysterious origins trying to find her place in the world. Also cast in starring roles are Keeley Hawes, Amanda Fix and Avan Jogia. Rya Kihlstedt and James Hiroyuki Liao join the cast as series regulars, and Fear the Walking Dead writer Anna Fishko serves as creator, writer and executive producer.

Orphan Black: Echoes Teaser Trailer
The new trailer is similar to the NYCC Comic-Con one released in October 2023. It opens with Lucy waking up and hearing that she’s “been through a procedure.” She runs through a lab and then declares, “I have to face them…we have to figure out who we are.” There’s also another shot of Lucy tearing herself out of some truly scary pink goo. Best of all is the show’s tagline: “A completely unique copy of the original.”
Orphan Black: Echoes premieres June 23, 2024, on AMC, AMC+ and BBC America. How excited are you to check out the spin-off series? Watch the new teaser trailer and let us know below, then keep an eye out for more updates soon.
