"Orphan Black" star Tatiana Maslany has joined actor Taran Killam's hitmen comedy show "Why We're Killing Gunther" as the female lead.

The upcoming show will also star Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bobby Moynihan, Cobie Smulders, Kumail Nanjiani and Randall Park, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

The story revolves around a group of eccentric international assassins who become fed up with Gunther, the world's greatest hitman, who also happens to be an arrogant show-off, and decide to kill him. Their master plan, however, quickly turns into a series of embarrassing encounters, as Gunther always appears one step ahead of them.

Maslany rose to fame through her lead role of Sarah Manning in science fiction thriller TV series "Orphan Black", which is aired on AXN in India.
