It'll be a few more months until Orphan Black returns to TV, but BBC America has unveiled the first teaser for season three.
Set to Lesley Gore's 1963 ballad "You Don't Own Me" (how fitting!), the 20-second promo — which premieres during Saturday's finale of Doctor Who — begins with two embryos being split into two before being split again... and again... and again. A simple concept, yet encompasses the theme of the clone drama.
Here's the official synopsis for the new season, already in production:
Season three plunges the clone sisterhood into unexpected territory with the realization that they’re not alone. Just when they thought they knew their enemies and allies, season three reveals our clones are more vulnerable than ever before. Highly trained, identical male-soldiers raise more questions than answers. Who are these new clones? Who created them? And more importantly, why do they exist? Sarah, Cosima, Alison and Helena are stronger together than they are apart, but this season will put that bond to the test. Will they forge towards their truth, or fall at the feet of those that seek to control them?
Tatiana Maslany, Jordan Gavaris, Dylan Bruce, Maria Doyle Kennedy, Kevin Hanchard, Ari Millen and Evelyne Brochu star in the hourlong series from creators Graeme Manson and John Fawcett. Michiel Huisman, Skyler Wexler and Zoe De Grand Maison also star.
Orphan Black returns in April on BBC America.
