Orphan Black is fading to black.

The acclaimed clone conspiracy thriller will air its fifth and final season on Space next year.  

The series will conclude with 10 one-hour episodes on Space.

Regina-born actress Tatiana Maslany picked up a Golden Globe nomination in 2014 and an Emmy nomination last year for playing a collective of clone sisters on the sci-fi series.

While working on Orphan Black, Tatiana Maslany has also appeared in films, including staring in Kim Nguyen's latest feature film Two Lovers and a Bear. (Max Films)
