The premiere episode of "Orphan Black" season 3 is slated to air next week, which means that more details about the clones are popping up everywhere. 

During the recently concluded WonderCon 2015 convention in Anaheim, California, series co-creator Graeme Manson and several cast members — including Dylan Bruce (Paul), Maria Doyle Kennedy (Mrs. S), Jordan Gavaris (Felix), Kristian Bruun (Donnie), and Evelyn Brochu (Delphine) — talked about what lies ahead for the clones under Project Leda, and how the emergence of their male counterparts from Project Castor will affect them. 

When the panel asked the cast about Ari Millen's clone characters, Bruce answered that the actor who portrays all the complex characters did a great job.

"I cannot wait for you all to see what he's done with these boys," Bruce shared. "He's such a wonderful, loving guy and he plays these creeps so well. You guys should all be really, really excited. He poured his heart and soul into these characters and he did a spectacular job." 

The series co-creator, on the other hand, differentiated the male clones from Tatiana Maslany's Sarah Manning and her sister clones. According to Manson, the product of Project Castor grew up together knowing that they are clones, unlike the members of Project Leda who were raised apart from each other because of the experiment. 

Meanwhile, Gavaris intimated that his character will spend more time with Cosima in the coming season. According to the actor, both Felix and Cosima share an important connection with each other, and both can relate with each other's struggles.

"It's a very specific thing having to come out, feeling like an outsider, ever feeling oppressed. It's a very specific kind of feeling that I think these characters, on an unspoken level get to relate to," Gavaris stated. 

Manson also teased that there will be some song and dance sequences scattered all over the season.

"Orphan Black" season 3 premieres on Saturday, April 18, on BBC America.
