LOS ANGELES, June 23 (UPI) -- The Girlfriend Experience has been greenlit for a new television series on Starz.
The program will be based on the 2009 film of the same name by Steven Soderbergh (Erin Brockovich, Ocean's Eleven). The movie stars porn star Sasha Grey as Christine, a prostitute who specializes in the "girlfriend experience." In addition to sex, GFE escorts provide intimacies like cuddling and conversation that are more common to actual romantic partners.
