Orphan 3 Conversations Are Already Happening Says Isabelle Fuhrman

Orphan star Isabelle Fuhrman, who reprises the role of serial killer Esther in the recently released Orphan: First Kill, has revealed that discussion has begun over a possible Orphan 3. Speaking with Variety, Fuhrman reveals that she has already had conversations over a further adventure for Esther with producer Alex Mace, and states that she would love to return for more. Sooner rather than later.

Fuhrman is far from the only one with Orphan 3 on the brain, with Orphan: First Kill director William Brent Bell revealing to our very own Tim Kraft that he has high hopes of completing the Orphan trilogy.

“I don’t know. I do know that [producer Alex Mace] has already talked to me about doing a third one. And if the script is good, and people love this one, why not? I would love to do that. I don’t think we’re gonna have to wait 13 years because I don’t think it’s gonna be possible in 13 years. When you’re in your 20s you can still look like younger if you get on a little stool chair, or have children play you from multiple angles. But I would love the opportunity if it came up. I wouldn’t say no.”

Orphan: First Kill once again follows Isabelle Fuhrman as Esther, who is now living under the name Leena Klammer. The horror begins when she orchestrates a brilliant escape from an Estonian psychiatric facility and travels to America by impersonating the missing daughter of the wealthy couple Katie and Richard Mauerova.

But Leena’s new life comes with an unexpected wrinkle when Katie becomes convinced that she isn’t her daughter, while Richard disagrees, believing that his wife is suffering from paranoia and hallucinating. Leena tries to separate them, causing some major problems and pitting her against a mother who will protect her family at any cost.

Directed by William Brent Bell and written by David Coggeshall, and starring Isabelle Fuhrman, Julia Stiles, Rossif Sutherland, Matthew Finlan, and Morgan Giraudet, Orphan: First Kill was released on August 19, 2022 by Paramount Players in select theaters, digital, and via streaming on Paramount+.
