“I don’t think this is a job that every woman can do,” Seimetz said. “The one thing I was having a hard time understanding was having sex with no emotional connection,” Keough mentioned a problem that she had less difficulty with the more sex scenes that they filmed. “I don’t think that’s anything to be ashamed of.” “What this show portrays is a woman who likes sex without guilt and without shame,” Kerrigan said. She’s not extremely likable or morally correct… more of a character you’d see as a man, which is what drew me to this.”

Keough used words like “controlling,” “manipulative” and “selfish” to describe the role, things that “are not really seen in a lead character on a TV show. However, he left the actual casting decision to Kerrigan and Seimetz, just suggesting that they sit down with her because “she’s got a lot in the tank.” “She went onto a list in my mind of people to return to.” “I worked with her on ‘Magic Mike’ for a few days, and I had this sense that I was kind of scratching the surface of her capabilities,” he said. The first question asked of Soderbergh was how Riley Keough came to be cast as the central character, Christine, which he revealed came about after working with her - just a little bit. “The people who are going to appreciate the filmmaking approach are all going to be there.” On Finding Christine “It certainly seems, given the pedigree of, why is a good spot for this show to be screened,” Soderbergh said. It’s an approach that will likely play well at Sundance later this month, where “GFE” will be making its world premiere. “The important part of it was that the filmmaking reflected the content,” he added.
Those instincts included shooting everything on location with a lot of natural lighting: “We followed the sun.” It all created “a sense of naturalism and realism.
Kerrigan laid out their visual approach to the show as one of naturalism, though different from Soderbergh’s approach with the original film because “we’re different people - when I’m on set I tend to trust my own instincts.” Co-showrunner Amy Seimetz and Kerrigan came to “GFE,” following established work in the independent film world, because Soderbergh (who serves as executive producer on the series) wanted to take “a sort of independent, auteur, director-driven approach to this show.” (When Seimetz joked that no one had seen her films, Soderbergh quickly jumped in to correct her on that score - “I did!”)
