Ewan McGregor as Lincoln Six Echo, the clone of Tom Lincoln, a Scottish automotive experimental designer, who sponsored his clone for a new liver since his viral hepatitis is destroying his liver.

Scarlett Johansson as Jordan Two Delta, the clone of Sarah Jordan, a supermodel for Calvin Klein (among other brands), who also has an apparently three-year-old son. She was about to be harvested for organs after her sponsor was severely injured in a car accident, she escapes with Lincoln with whom she has taken up a friendship. The real Jordan is never seen on-screen, only in advertisements but it is stated later that Sarah Jordan died while in her coma.

Lincoln Six-Echo (McGregor) is a resident of a seemingly utopian but contained facility in the mid-21st century. Like all of the inhabitants of this carefully controlled environment, Lincoln hopes to be chosen to go to the "The Island"—reportedly the last uncontaminated spot on the planet—until he makes a terrible discovery that everything about his existence is a lie…and that he is actually more valuable dead than alive. Together with a beautiful fellow resident named Jordan Two-Delta (Johansson), Lincoln makes a daring escape to the outside world he’s never known. Now, with the forces of the institute that once housed them relentlessly hunting them down, Lincoln and Jordan engage in a desperate race for their lives.
