Krysten Ritter will star in the “Orphan Black” spinoff.

Actress Krysten Ritter, star of the “Jessica Jones” series, will star in “Orphan Black: Echoes”, a spin-off of the award-winning “Orphan Black” clone series, which will premiere in 2023 on the American pay channel AMC. .

Airing from 2013 to 2017, “Orphan Black” revolved around a group of women who discovered they were clones of the same person, after being separated and raised in different places, in the midst of a conspiracy involving rival groups in a war for control of experience.

The sequel is not supposed to bring back the original “sisters” of the “clone club” – or “sestras” as the Russian clone put it – which were played, in an impressive way, by the same actress: the Canadian Tatiana Maslany, in a dozen of many different roles. Instead, the new series will tell another story set in the same universe.

“Orphan Black: Echoes” will follow a new group of women played by Ritter as they enter each other’s lives and embark on a journey to unravel the mystery of their identity.

AMC is looking for a new hit, before the end of “The Walking Dead”, which will air its final episodes later this year, so it is putting a lot of emphasis on saving the Emmy franchise – which netted the trophy for best. actress for Maslany.

The script for the new version is entrusted to Anna Fishko (writer of “Fear the Walking Dead”), who will also share the production of the series with John Fawcett, the co-creator of the original series, and with the actress Krysten Ritter.
