6 Best Human Cloning Movies

By Vlad Zakh · June 3, 2026

Cloning raises ethical questions and identity crises, and these films aren’t afraid of either. Never Let Me Go has three friends at an isolated school slowly learning why they exist, Moon has an astronaut making a disturbing discovery on a lunar mining mission, and The 6th Day has a man finding he’s been illegally cloned. The Island, Multiplicity and The Boys from Brazil round out the six.
