Esther is back, this time with a twist, pitting her against a mother who is willing to do whatever it takes to protect her family. Orphan: First Kill is set to release in theaters, on digital, and will be streaming on Paramount+ on August 19, 2022. Orphan: First Kill stars Isabelle Fuhrman, Rossif Sutherland, and Julia Stiles. It’s written by David Coggeshall and directed by William Brent Bell. It has a runtime of 99 minutes and is rated R for bloody violence, language, and brief sexual content.
The official synopsis reads: “Esther’s terrifying saga continues in this thrilling prequel to the original and shocking horror hit, Orphan. After orchestrating a brilliant escape from an Estonian psychiatric facility, Esther travels to America by impersonating the missing daughter of a wealthy family. Yet, an unexpected twist arises that pits her against a mother who will protect her family from the murderous ‘child’ at any cost.”
“We found your daughter. She’s alive,” opens the trailer as Esther is reunited with her family that she “misses very much.” “I think something’s going on with Esther,” we hear, followed by quick cuts of Esther misbehaving, escalating into violence. “A mother protects her family. No matter what,” says Stiles’ character as the trailer ends. You can watch it in full below.
Orphan: First Kill Official Trailer
Orphan: First Kill is the prequel to the 2009 Orphan horror movie that grossed $78 million worldwide with a budget of $20 million, garnering a strong cult following. Many critics praised Fuhrman for her performance as Esther, which she is set to reprise.
“What’s remarkable is that Isabelle Fuhrman, who played the little girl in the original Orphan, now reprises her role as the same girl, same age, even though Isabelle’s older now… But I just went and did ADR… and I was floored because they didn’t use CGI. The tricks that they did with the camera and different perspective tricks that they had, plus her costume and prosthetics and all that, she looks like a child, and her performance is stunning,” said Stiles in an interview with Collider.
