Are we supposed to root for her, or not? I kept my opinions out of it but had Anna gotten the loan, Rachel would've been right beside her with a clipboard running the Anna Delvey Foundation with her. “Both she and Anna are anti-heroes and both are opportunists but Rachel is a people-pleaser and a rule-follower. Though Rachel was more than reimbursed for her pain and suffering, Lowes points out that at the time she was evicted from her apartment, Vanity Fair was her dream job and she got in trouble and she was embarrassed. You can say whatever you want to say about her but this is a story of a girl who was conned and she sold her story and managed to get American Express to foot the bill.”
I really left all judgment at the door and was like, ‘Let's be this girl in this situation.’ This was the worst experience of her life and the stakes were very high for her. She was terrified and that was what was easy for me to tap into and of course, there was the typical Shonda comedy I got to lean into. I really love her and how complicated she is. The scenes we filmed in Morocco, in the actual place she got conned out of $62,000 made it easy for me to empathize with her and not judge her. So, I built Rachel from what Shonda wrote on the page. “I am playing a character in a Shonda Rhimes story and I treasure her text and dialogue like Shakespeare. There were plenty of easily accessible videos of her online and she was doing her book PR at the time,” explained Lowes in a recent interview. It was very easy at first to quickly look at her Instagram feed.

Katie Lowes, well known Gladiator from another of Rhimes’ hit series Scandal, portrays Rachel and unlike several of her cast mates, she did not meet the real-life version of her TV character, nor did she read her book. Katie Lowes as Rachel DeLoache Williams in 'Inventing Anna' on Netflix. She could stand to gain an additional $300,000 from HBO if they ultimately go through with the project, but that number is still being negotiated. She sold her story to Vanity Fair and has a book out entitled, “My Friend Anna: The True Story of a Fake Heiress.” Rumor has it Lena Dunham is adapting Williams' version of events for HBO, which reportedly paid $35,000 for adaptation rights. One so called ex-friend of Delvey’s, Rachel DeLoache Williams, is almost as controversial as she is. She used everyone around her but it was reciprocated as those around her wanted something from her and had a lot to gain from knowing her and rubbing those same elbows right alongside her.
Two-sided transactional relationships were the basis of Delvey's world. Garner took on this role after winning two back-to-back Emmys for her work on Ozark and she perfected both Delvey's look and unique accent proving herself one of Hollywood's best actresses.Īnd then there is her counterpart, Veep's Anna Chlumsky, a fictionalized version of Pressler, Vivian Kent, a journalist in dire need of a good story, which she finds in Delvey. She’s the perfect yin to Delvey’s yang and their scenes are pure gold.
