I’m very sad Orphan Black’s Tatiana Maslany doesn’t get to speak in this trailer for Woman in Gold, but you can bet your sweet genetics she’s going to knock it out of the park playing a young version of Dame Helen Mirren.

Academy Award winner Helen Mirren stars in the incredible story of Maria Altmann, a Jewish refugee who is forced to flee Vienna during World War II. Decades later, determined to salvage some dignity from her past, Maria has taken on a mission to reclaim a painting the Nazis stole from her family: the famous Lady In Gold, a portrait of her beloved Aunt Adele. Partnering with an inexperienced but determined young lawyer Ryan Reynolds, Maria embarks on an epic journey for justice 60 years in the making.

The film is set for release April 3, 2015, just a short bit before the Orphan Black premiere on April 18.
