A source close to Jorgie told the Daily Star: "She's been working really hard to make a good impression and show what she can do.

"Jorgie is determined to do well in the States... She's been to a lot of auditions and really put the hours in."

The actress, 29, will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of her fellow Hollyoaks alumni Nathalie Emmanuel and Ricky Whittle who have starred in Game Of Thrones and American Gods.

The source added: "Jorgie has a lot of experience under her belt. She's hoping that will help her make it in America."

Jorgie - currently shooting for her 2018 calendar - is best known in the UK for her work on Hollyoaks as Theresa McQueen between 2008 to 2016.

An established reality TV veteran, the 29-year-old has appeared in no less than four reality TV shows.

She came in fifth place on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here in 2015 and has since appeared in First Dates and Celebs Go Dating.
