The highly acclaimed "Orphan Black" will return for Season 3. The 10-episode clone drama gets spring 2015 air date. Production in Toronto started a month ago and will end until March 2015.
"After the shocking finale of Season 2, we are excited to share with our viewers the next dramatic twists and turns in the clone conspiracy, as conceived by series creators Graeme Manson and John Fawcett," shared Corrie Coe, Senior Vice-President, Independent Production, Bell Media.
In "Orphan Black" Season 3, the clone sisterhood gets into a surprising location, where they think they are not alone. They thought they are well-aware of their allies and enemies but they may be wrong. The third season also introduces highly-trained, identical male soldiers. Who are they and who created them? Why do they even exist? Sarah, Cosima, Alison, and Helena are stronger together than they are apart - but can they promise to stay together?
This BBC America sci-fi drama stars Tatiana Maslany. Other cast includes, Ari Millen (who plays the role of the male clones), Jordan Gavaris (Felix, Sarah's foster brother), Dylan Bruce (Paul), Maria Doyle Kennedy (Sarah and Felix's foster mother, Mrs. S), Evelyne Brochu (Dyad Scientist and Cosima's lover Delphine), Kevin Hanchard (Art), and Michiel Huisman (Cal).
"Orphan Black" doubled its ratings from the first to the second season in Adult 25-54 and 18-49 in Live+7, according to Nielsen Media Research. This is a first for ad-supported drama series.
David Fortier and Ivan Schneeberg, executive producers of "Orphan Black" and Co-Presidents of Temple Street Productions, said, "We could not be happier about the success of the show and how it continues to be embraced by audiences around the world."
IDW Publishing announced during the San Diego Comic-Con that it will produce a comic book based on the TV series, with the help of co-creators Fawcett and Manson. "Orphan Black#1" will be released in February 2015.
The subscription variant, according to Comic Book Resources, includes clues and Easter eggs for the much-awaited "Orphan Black Season 3". Each issue will discuss the life of a different clone, beginning from Sarah.
