Steven “No More Movies” Soderbergh is really earning that middle name. He’s got The Knick, which looks awesome, coming to Cinemax in August, and now he’s in bed with Starz, too. The new project is an adaptation of Soderbergh’s 2009 film The Girlfriend Experience, and Soderbergh will play executive producer. The anthology series will play out in 13 half-hour installments exploring “the relationships of the most exclusive courtesans who provide their clients with far more than just sex.” Soderbergh says in Starz’s statement, “We’re in an exciting period of auteur-driven television right now. When Philip [Fleishman] floated the idea of a Girlfriend Experience–inspired television show, I thought: ‘Let’s make it a different woman in a different city, let’s pair two independent writer-directors, one male and one female, and let them do the whole thing.'” That duo will be Lodge Kerrigan (The Killing, The Red Road) and Amy Seimetz (Sun Don’t Shine).
