'Orphan Black' Season 3 Spoilers, Plot News: Teaser Photo Features Another Male Clone
"Orphan Black," which airs on BBC America in the US, largely focused on the female clones of the Leda movement in previous seasons. But in Season 3, more focus will be given on the male versions created in Project Castor.
A recently released teaser photo for the third season provided more details about Project Castor. The teaser showed that one of the first clones that Sarah Manning (Tatiana Maslany) comes in contact with will be played by Ari Millen. Millen's character Rollins was revealed to be a clone in the second season.
Entertainment Weekly revealed more information about the upcoming season in an interview with Graeme Manson, one of the creators of the series.
Mason said in the third season the action will shift immediately to the basement of Marion's (Michelle Forbes) house where Manning will find another Project Castor clone named Rudy.
Two male clones have previously been revealed in the series – Mark and a cloned soldier. The number of male clones could increase in the upcoming season with Mason saying they would not be introduced at the same time in Season 3. Instead the creators of the show plan to unveil them gradually like what they did to the clones from Project Leda.
However, it seems that the male clones will not immediately seek to bond with the female clones or even look for answers like Manning and her "sisters." Instead they will have an agenda of their own which could create more trouble for the three main female clones in the series -- Sarah, Cosima and Alison.
With 10 female clones so far in "Orphan Black," the fate of Cosima is also going to become very important in the third season. Mason hinted that she could find cure for the illness that afflicts her.
