Trailer Watch: Clone Club Preps for Its Final Fight in “Orphan Black” Season 5

“Orphan Black”: Jan Thijs

Last time we saw the Clone Club sisters (all portrayed by Tatiana Maslany), they weren’t doing great. Resident Bad Clone Rachel had abducted Sarah’s family, Sarah and Cosima were severely sick or injured, and Alison and Donnie (Kristian Bruun) were on the lamb with Helena. Luckily, the new trailer for “Orphan Black” hints that the sisters will find their way back to each other and “fight as one” in the last batch of episodes.

Plot details are vague in the footage, but Mrs. S (Maria Doyle Kennedy) ominously says, “Whoever the man behind the curtain is, he’s put Rachel in charge.” It seems that the show’s fifth and final season will see the clones face off against Rachel and their creator once and for all. Along the way, we’ll get to see Sarah plot to get her daughter (Skyler Wexler) back, Rachel look smug, and Alison freak out. So classic “Orphan Black,” basically.

Maslany won a much-deserved Emmy in 2016 for her performance(s) in “Orphan Black.” She has also served as a producer on the feminist sci-fi series since 2015. “Two Lovers and a Bear,” “The Other Half,” and “Woman in Gold” are among her other credits.

The final season of “Orphan Black” premieres June 10 on BBC America.
