Film Career and "Showgirls"

After leaving "Saved by the Bell," Berkley pursued film opportunities in an effort to expand her career beyond television. In 1995, she was cast as Nomi Malone, a lead character in the controversial film "Showgirls." Known for its explicit content, the movie was widely criticized upon release and performed poorly with critics. However, over time, "Showgirls" gained cult status and became one of MGM's top-selling home video releases, known for its camp appeal and cultural relevance.
