Everyone should immediately hop over to Variety.

They've got a sneak peak (as well as some amazing spoilers) at ‘Orphan Black’ Final Season Sneak Peek, Season 5 Casting Confirmed | Variety

There's about a 20 minute movie inviting us to explore the set and meet people who are part of the crew.

'Tis an awesome thing to behold!!!!

I don't know any of those new cast members.

The guy playing Westmoreland isn't all that old either which is interesting....

nothing but speculation on my part, but i have a feeling we'll find out that westmoreland isn't that old, whether he be a fraud or just part of the family line, or whatever.

Westmoreland kinda sounds like Volan De Mort.

Yeah very likely true. Unless they keep making Westmoreland clones or something so that when one dies another takes over, but I've no idea how they'd have been doing that since the late 1800s. It makes about as much sense as someone actually living that long at least.
