She escapes the room to discover she’s in a Boston-area laboratory that can print human body parts, and presumably, an entire human being.
Two years later, “Lucy” (Krysten Ritter) has been in hiding, living in an RV close to boyfriend Jack (Avan Jogia) and his deaf teenage daughter Charlie (Zariella Langford). When an accident leads to a hospital visit, Lucy is detected by the sinister organization that created her. As she tries to evade capture, a chance encounter with a familiar face (Amanda Fix) sends Lucy down a deep rabbit hole.
Orphan Black: Echoes (Sundays at 10pm ET/PT beginning June 23 on AMC and BBC America), a 10-episode sequel from creator/writer Anna Fishko and original series cocreator John Fawcett, revisits the enigmatic Orphan Black universe. As Lucy tries to piece together the puzzle of who she is and why she was created, the franchise’s faithful fans will be engrossed trying to connect the dots between Echoes and its source material.
“Black” Flashback
Sci-fi drama Orphan Black (2013-17) gained a cult following of “Clone Club” fans and made a star of Canadian actress Tatiana Maslany, who won the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series in 2016 for her multiple roles in the series. Maslany played Sarah Manning, a young woman who discovers she is one of many Leda clones (276 clones in all, with 14 of them played onscreen by Maslany). Sarah and her sisters set out to solve the mysteries of their creation, which leads them into a dark world of conspiracies and moral complexities surrounding science, identity and the nature of humanity.
