Inventing Anna Storyline
Under the assumed name Anna Delvey, Russian-born Anna Sorokin infiltrated New York’s high society by convincing them she was a German socialite and an heiress to a massive fortune, all while scheming and scamming them out of millions.
About Inventing Anna TV Series
Inventing Anna is an American drama television miniseries created by Shonda Rhimes, inspired by the story of Anna Sorokin and the article in New York titled “How Anna Delvey Tricked New York’s Party People” by Jessica Pressler. It was produced by Shondaland.
In June 2018, Netflix and Shondaland secured the rights to the life narrative of Anna Sorokin and the New York article “How Anna Delvey Tricked New York’s Party People” by Jessica Pressler, with intentions to adapt it into a television series featuring Shonda Rhimes as both producer and writer, along with Betsy Beers.
Sorokin was paid $320,000, which was utilized to cover restitution and legal expenses. David Frankel was appointed as director and executive producer for two episodes of the series, including the premiere episode.
In October 2019, Julia Garner, Anna Chlumsky, Katie Lowes, Laverne Cox, and Alexis Floyd became part of the series’ cast. Madeline Brewer was intended to play the character of Anna Delvey but had to withdraw due to scheduling issues. Additionally, in October 2019, primary filming commenced in New York and Los Angeles.
In November 2019, Arian Moayed, Anders Holm, Anna Deavere Smith, Jeff Perry, and Terry Kinney joined the cast of the series. In February 2020, Jennifer Esposito was added to the cast of the series, but she never appeared and the character of Talia was portrayed by Marika Dominczyk.
