Sharon Stone Opposes Basic Instinct Reboot, Not Involved
Sharon Stone has expressed strong skepticism and disinterest in returning for the upcoming Basic Instinct reboot, which is being written by the original film's screenwriter Joe Eszterhas and produced by Amazon MGM Studios. Stone criticized the idea of revisiting her iconic role as Catherine Tramell, referencing the poor reception of Basic Instinct 2 and suggesting the reboot may not be worthwhile. She emphasized she is not involved with the project and remarked, “Good f—ing luck” to those moving forward with it, highlighting her retirement and the implausibility of her character’s return. Eszterhas, at 80 years old, defends his role in writing the new film, promising it will maintain the edgy, provocative style of the original. Despite Stone's absence, the production aims to preserve the suspense and boldness that defined the 1992 erotic thriller, seeking a fresh actress to bring new energy to the role. Stone also reflected on her career and experiences related to the original film, including controversies and personal challenges stemming from its erotic content.
