![]() ![]() ![]() Netflix’s Inventing Anna episode 1 heavily implies that Vivian convinces Anna to go to trial, but that would not only be unethical if a journalist did that in real life, it also could never have happened as the show's timeline does not match the real-life one. Vivian also feels she needs to write about Delvey, not only because she sees the story’s potential but because she needs to rehabilitate her public image as a journalist, as in the past she reported something in a listicle that was a lie. One of the first obstacles Vivian faces is that Anna might take the deal the District Attorney’s office proposed, making an investigative piece on her useless. Inventing Anna episode 1 sees Vivian Kent at work, where she refuses the story assigned to her in order to pursue Anna Delvey’s story and investigate it. ![]() Here’s what Netflix’s Inventing Anna changes and what it gets right. Still, some of the characters the Netflix show briefly focuses on are either fully made up-such as Val (James Cusati-Moyer) and Nora Radford ( Grey’s Anatomy star Kate Burton)-or they aren’t as predominant in the original story as the TV show makes them out to be, such as Anna’s boyfriend Chase (Saamer Usmani).

While Inventing Anna couldn’t have existed without Sorokin selling the rights to her life story to Netflix, making $320,000 in the process, Pressler’s involvement in the show was also practical, as she was among Inventing Anna’s producers. The Netflix-Shondaland production focuses as much on the investigation by Pressler’s alter-ego in the show, Vivian Kent (Anna Chlumsky) as it does on socialite Anna Sorokin, known as Anna Delvey ( Ozark’s Julia Garner) in New York’s social circles. Inventing Anna is based on the 2018 New York Magazine exposé “Maybe She Had So Much Money She Just Lost Track of It: How an Aspiring 'It' Girl Tricked New York's Party People - and its Banks” by journalist Jessica Pressler. ![]()
