In the movie, Grey played an experienced escort who’d been in the business long enough to earn herself an expensive apartment and wardrobe, as well as a thorough vetting system and a boyfriend comfortable with the nature of her work.
The Protagonist: This is one of the biggest shifts between the film and the series. Though escorting is often associated with big-money cities like New York and Los Angeles, escorts can (and do) live all sorts of places, often traveling to where the money is for work trips (or just finding it at home - there are plenty of people willing to spend cash on high-priced sex workers in cities all over the world). But it’s not as dramatic a shift as it might seem. This shift in locale was apparently at Soderbergh’s request, as he wanted a clear distinction between the movie and the series.

In contrast, the TV series predominantly relies on professional actors, with Elvis’s granddaughter Riley Keough - most recently seen in Mad Max: Fury Road - starring as Christine. In addition to porn performer Grey, the film’s cast includes personal trainers, film critic Glenn Kenny, and at least one real-life sex worker. The Cast: Soderbergh’s been known for his tendency to cast “real people” (or at least non-professional actors) in his indie films, and The Girlfriend Experience was a project in this vein. Soderbergh remained on board as an executive producer.
The Production Team: The film was written by Brian Koppelman and David Levien and directed by Steven Soderbergh the TV series was written and directed by Amy Seimetz and Lodge Kerrigan (who’s already tread into the “sad call girl” territory once before with 1998’s Claire Dolan). Ahead of its premiere this Sunday, The Girlfriend Experience, let’s take a quick look at what’s changed in the transition to the small screen. Despite some similarities - the film and TV series both tell the story of a girl named Christine who escorts under the name Chelsea–the two projects are mostly defined by their differences. Seven years later, Starz is gearing up to release a series of the same name. Starring Sasha Grey - then a popular, celebrated porn performer - The Girlfriend Experience was something of a fall 2008 period piece, an exploration of the economic insecurity brought on by the burst of the housing bubble (and, of course, the imminent election), as well as a thoughtful look at the similarities between sex work and other service industries. In spring 2009, Magnolia Pictures released a film about a New York City–based escort losing herself amidst the chaos of the economic meltdown of 2008.
