The third installment of The Girlfriend Experience is set amidst the London tech scene and focuses on Iris (Telles), a neuroscience major. As she begins to explore the titular transactional world, Iris quickly learns that her client sessions provide her with a compelling edge in the tech world and vice versa. She then begins to question whether her actions are driven by free will, or something else altogether, and heads down a deep path of exploration.
The new season is written and directed by internationally acclaimed filmmaker Anja Marquardt (She’s Lost Control) with a cast led by starring Julia Goldani Telles (The Affair). Soderbergh and Philip Fleishman executive produce the series with Jeff Cuban (The China Hustle), while Marquardt also serves as co-executive producer. The 10-episode scripted anthology series is a Transactional Pictures of NY LP production in association with Extension 765 and Magnolia Pictures.
