Highlighting a college girl who is immersed in the world of 'transactional relationships,' the trailer looks as provocative as the film was.

AceShowbiz - Starz has debuted the first trailer for "The Girlfriend Experience", which is based on Steven Soderbergh's 2009 film of the same title. Sex, money and double identity are the themes of the drama which follows Christine Reade (Riley Keough), a law student at the University of Chicago and an intern at a prestigious law firm, who is intrigued when a friend introduces her to the world of transactional relationships.

Attracted to the rush of control and easy money, Christine has to confront her own conflicting identities. She learns to navigate and manipulate the big personalities in both worlds to get what she wants, in the process becoming a quasi-lover and confidant to men who are willing to pay richly for her time, offering a service known as a GFE (Girlfriend Experience).

Lodge Kerrigan ("The Killing") and Amy Seimetz ("Sun Don't Shine") wrote and directed all 13 episodes of the new series. Soderbergh serves as executive producers along with Philip Fleishman, Lodge Kerrigan, Amy Seimetz, Gary Marcus and Jeff Cuban.

"The Girlfriend Experience" will premiere in 2016 on Starz.
