‘Orphan: First Kill’ Poster Teases the Return of Esther; Trailer Coming Soon

Published

Esther will return in upcoming Orphan prequel Orphan: First Kill, with Isabelle Fuhrman reprising the role and William Brent Bell (The Boy, Separation) directing the movie.

Orphan: First Kill has been acquired for release by Paramount, but we don’t yet have a release date at this time. It’s coming soon, however, and it’s been officially rated “R.”

While you wait for a release date, an official teaser poster was shared on Instagram by William Brent Bell over the weekend, while Fuhrman filmed herself for a trailer reaction video.

Of course, the Orphan: First Kill trailer hasn’t actually been released to the public yet, but Fuhrman watched it and she promises that fans are going to “freak out” when they see it.

That trailer, if Fuhrman’s IG post is any indication, is coming very soon. In the meantime, check out the Orphan: First Kill poster below, which reveals one of the prequel’s taglines:

“She will kill to be part of a family.”

In Orphan: First Kill, “Leena Klammer (aka Esther) orchestrates a brilliant escape from an Estonian psychiatric facility and travels to America by impersonating the missing daughter of a wealthy family. But Leena’s new life as “Esther” comes with an unexpected wrinkle and pits her against a mother who will protect her family at any cost.”

Old school trickery, we’ve heard, will allow Fuhrman to reprise the role of Esther.

In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.

Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).

The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.

The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”

Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”

Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
