Who else will watch this only for Tatiana Maslany ?

I'm not a fanboy of Tatiana Maslany but her acting in Orphan Black couldn't be better. I've asked myself and discussed on her IMDb board if she could be that good all the time and if a great career was destiny. I guess I'm not the only one with these questions.

To try and answer them I could've checked her ancient roles but they were either in confidential movies (no offense), either minor roles in somehow big movies (like her role in the Vow). There is also the fact that she is probably a far better actress now than some years ago, because of her maturity and her experience on Orphan Black. So checking what she did when she started wouldn't be fair (for the same reason, if you want to know if George Clooney is a good actor,don't watch ER obviously...).


Now since it will be her first big role in a somehow big movie I think I might have some answers or at least the beginning of an answer (cause 1 big tv show + 1 big movie is still too few to 'judge' for sure).

I hope for her she is more successful than many actresses who were big in their respective tv shows but didn't become that big on cinema : Kristen Bell after VM, Gillian Anderson after X files, and these 2 actually are not really making my point compared to the very long list of actresses who simply never made it on the big screen (once again no offense, it's still a career many would like to have), as opposed to KB (Sarah Marshall) and GA (the last king of Scotland).

Of course, Tatiana Maslany is better in Orphan Black than these actresses were on their shows. Plus, if you go beyond acting, I think she also has the potential to please worldwide audience in the current era where 'divas' are not very popular anymore (like Gwyneth Paltrow...), they've been replaced by actresses that have everything (beautiful, nice, fun...) like JLaw. All in all, I may be fooling myself but I would say she has a good chance a becoming big (more than your average tv actress anyway). Seeing Tatiana Maslany at the top would be refreshing, it's hard not to like her even if we only know her through itw and her acting she seems like a nice gal.
