Some movies make a natural transition to television, and vice versa, while others struggle more to find their footing. It will be interesting to see how The Girlfriend Experience , which premieres on Starz on April 10, will fare. However, the show kind of follows the lead set by the film and relies on a few indie actors rather than big name stars.
Avery isn't the main character on the series, but rather a friend of Christine, the central character played by Riley Keough. Avery introduces Christine to the world of escorts and transactional relationships, so Sheil is tasked with making all of that seem alluring. But she should be more than capable of pulling it off. Sheil just started acting in the late '00s, and she already has a ton of credits to her name. Most of these have been in indie movies β a good fit for The Girlfriend Experience , which was the indie-est of movies.
Here's what you should know about the actor before you are introduced to Avery. Yeah, I definitely thought that I was going to show up and be just the dumbest, worst actor that they admitted that year, just a fluke. Chances are, if you've taken a trip to the arthouse cinema any time since , you've probably seen Sheil.
If not in a feature, then certainly in a trailer. For Sheil, it was a dream role. Sheil likes to work. She's amassed a ton of credits already and has a bunch more coming up, in addition to The Girlfriend Experience , including Outcast , a TV series supernatural possessions. She's An East Coast Native.
