SELFIE follows Eliza Dooley (Gillan), a self-centered girl in her twenties who goes through "a public and humiliating breakup" and ends up the subject of a viral video, which brings her more visibility than she ever bargained for. To fix her image, she seeks the help of a marketing expert at her company.

The pilot is from SUBURGATORY's Emily Kapnek, who also produced The Middle and How To Live With Your Parents.

Gillan will next be seen on the big screen in Guardians of the Galaxy and The List. She is well known for her portrayal of 'Amy Pond' on Doctor Who. Among her other TV credits are NTSF:SD:SUV, Pond Life, In Love with Coward, The Well, The Kevin Bishop Show and more. She has also appeared in the movies Oculus and Not Another Happy Ending.
