A new full-length trailer has been released for Starz's new call-girl series "The Girlfriend Experience," which is the small-screen adaptation of Steven Soderbergh's 2009 film of the same name.

"Mad Max: Fury Road" actress Riley Keough (granddaughter of Elvis Presley) stars as a financially-strapped law school student who is drawn into the lucrative world of high-priced call-girl services as she secretly starts moonlighting as an escort for wealthy businessmen.

Soderbergh is serving as an executive producer on the series, alongside actress/filmmaker Amy Seimetz (Sun Don't Shine) and filmmaker Lodge Kerrigan (Keane), both of whom are writing and directing all 13 episodes.

Co-starring Kate Lyn Sheil, Mary Lynn Rajskub and Paul Sparks, "The Girlfriend Experience" is set to premiere Sunday, April 10th.

Meanwhile, the show's first four episodes are scheduled to debut this weekend at the Sundance Film Festival.

synopsis:
Christine Reade (Riley Keough) is a second year student at Chicago-Burnham Law School and a new intern at the prestigious firm of Kirkland & Allen. Working hard to establish herself at the firm, her focus quickly shifts when a classmate introduces her to the world of transactional relationships. Known as GFEs, they are women who provide "The Girlfriend Experience" -- emotional and sexual relationships at a very high price. Juggling two very different lives, Christine quickly finds herself drawn into the GFE world, attracted to the rush of control and intimacy.
