BBC America's "Orphan Black" is returning on April 18, 2015. Recently, the upcoming season's new teaser was released. In addition to Sarah and her clone sisters, including the little sister Charlotte Bowles, the new teaser also features the male clones, Mark and Rudy. The title of this Season 3 teaser is "This is War."

The teaser opens with Cosima saying, "this is the fight for knowledge." Sarah appears and says, "this is war." Helena says something in a language that is difficult to understand and then Alison appears to say, "those with power do not give it up easily." Charlotte says, "they never have" and the male clone Mark appears to complete her sentence, "And, they never will." Scarface Rudy appears in the end. He does not utter a word but can be seen smiling like a wicked fiend.

The Season 2 finale of "Orphan Black" revealed that there were two clone projects, Project LEDA and Project CASTOR. Dyad handled the female clones while the military took control of the male clones. Sarah meets the male clone, Scarface Rudy, who has been held as a prisoner at Marion Bowles' house. At the end of the episode, it was revealed that Prolethean Mark is a clone. In addition to Rudy, a solider clone also made his appearance in the final episode. Also, Sarah met her eight-year-old clone sister, Charlotte, who was created twenty years after Sarah and other clones were created.

According to the synopsis of the new season, "Season 3 plunges the clone sisterhood into unexpected territory with the realisation 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."

The clone sisters Sarah, Cosima, Alison and Helena have triumphed against all odds when they are together. The synopsis of Season 3 indicates that their bond will be put to test. The teaser suggests that the clones are pitted against powerful people who would not like let go the string of control. It hints at a possible war. "Will they forge towards their (clone sisters) truth, or fall at the feet of those that seek to control them?," the synopsis of "Orphan Black" Season 3 asks.

In addition, "Orphan Black" Season 3 will explore the questions about the male clones, including who are they, who created them and why do they exist. More soldier clones are expected to be introduced, as the synopsis mentions about "highly trained, identical male-soldiers." In the new season, Ari Millen will be returning in a lead role to play the male clones. Also, Michiel Huisman is returning to reprise his role as Kira's dad, Cal.

It has been reported that the filming of "Orphan Black" Season 3 will wrap up in March 2015.
