Anna Fishko (“Fear the Walking Dead,” “The Society”) is on board to write and executive produce a new iteration of the cult hit series “Orphan Black” for AMC.
John Fawcett and Graeme Manson created the original series which launched in 2013 and ran for five seasons. Tatiana Maslany played a woman who discovers that she is a clone and that someone is plotting to kill her and her clone ‘sisters’. Maslany won an Emmy for best actress in 2016.
A writers room for the project is now open but plot specifics are under wraps, but it is NOT a reboot – rather a new story set in the same world. Boat Rocker Studios will produce.
