Netflix’s Drama Series ‘Inventing Anna’ Inspired From The Story Of Anna Sorokin

A new limited TV series from the streaming service is planned to be released in 2022. The show will follow the true story of a woman who disguised herself as an heiress by stealing identities and committing fraud. Inventing Anna will be based on the book Girl Gone Rogue: The Unbelievable Story of Anna Delvey, which was written by a journalist following her story- Elizabeth Kelly- for Vanity Fair. “The Sorokin story will be a very big part of it,” said an insider. “She is an incredible story. She is one of the most interesting and compelling people ever.” Though the show has been developed in 2020, Netflix chose to not cast an actress with fair skin to play Anna Delvey in Inventing Anna, which was released in 2022 as a limited series. This was the first project in Hollywood produced by Netflix since they began streaming original content independently.
