It’s been over 10 years since audiences were first introduced to Esther Coleman/Leena Klammer (Isabelle Fuhrman) in “Orphan.” The 2009 psychological horror film stunned critics and viewers with its unique storyline, acting performances, and scares, which led to the production of a prequel titled “Orphan: First Kill.”
“Orphan: First Kill” takes place before the events of the first film and centers around Esther Coleman/Leena Klammer as she deceives and subsequently terrorizes another family who adopts her. The prequel hit theaters on Aug. 19, but many horror fans are curious as to when and where “Orphan: First Kill” will be available to stream. Here’s everything we know about how you can stream the newest Orphan flick.
What Is “Orphan: First Kill” About?
In 2007, 33-year-old Leena Klammer lives with a rare disorder that makes her look like a child. Leena lives in a psychiatric institution in Estonia but escapes after killing her guard and therapist. Wanting to start a new life, Leena assumes the identity of a missing girl from the United States named Esther Coleman and is “reunited” with her family. Thrilled that they have their daughter back, parents Tricia (Julia Stiles) and Allen Albright (Rossif Sutherland) welcome Esther with open arms but begin to notice that their daughter is vastly different from the girl they remember.
