Back in November, we reported that Isabelle Fuhrman is returning for the prequel to 2009’s Orphan as Esther. Today, we’ve got the first behind the scenes look at Orphan: First Kill via Fuhrman’s social media.
Filming will soon wrap on Orphan: First Kill and according to reports, 23-year-old Fuhrman looks as if she hasn’t aged a day since Jaume Collet-Serra’s hit film debuted thanks to clever angles, world-class makeup, and effects.
In 2009 Fuhrman brought to life the twisted and terrifying Esther to life. The character was actually a 33-year-old woman named Leena Klammer, posing as a child up for adoption. Once adopted by a young couple with two children, Esther manipulates everyone around her while attempting to seduce her new father and killing anyone who gets in her way.
In First Kill, “Leena orchestrates a brilliant escape from an Estonian psychiatric facility and travels back to America by impersonating the missing daughter of a wealthy family. But Leena’s new life comes with an unexpected wrinkle and pits her against a mother who will protect her family at any cost.”
Julia Stiles (10 Things I Hate About You, Jason Bourne) and Rossif Sutherland (Possessor) will also star in the sequel directed by William Brent Bell (The Boy) and written by David Coggeshall (The Haunting in Connecticut 2). The film is from Dark Castle Entertainment and Entertainment One.
