The producer allegedly asked him to sleep with the leading lady of her in distress.
Screen goddess Sharon Stone says "#MeToo" and lashes out at Hollywood predators in her explosive memoir.
The "Ratched" star details an ugly series of s*xual harassment situations she has endured over her 40-year career in her new memoir, "The Beauty of Living Twice," out March 30 in Knopf.
While she praises some movie executives and co-stars (especially her "Basic Instinct" lead, Michael Douglas), Stone said an anonymous producer pressured her into having real-life s*x with a male co-star, in an unnamed film. , to help save the project.
The producer allegedly asked him to sleep with her struggling leading lady, the 63-year-old wrote in the exclusive excerpt from the book, in Vanity Fair.
The "Sliver" and "The Quick and the Dead" star recounts: "A producer asked me to be taken to his office, where I had milkshake balls in a little milk carton-type container under my arm with my spout open," he said. . “He paced around his office with his balls falling off his spout and rolling all over the hardwood floor as he explained to me why I should fuck my co-star so we could have on-screen chemistry.”
An Oscar nominee for “Casino,” she went on to reveal how the Hollywood honcho claimed that she “made love to Ava Gardner on screen and it was so sensational. Now just the creepy thought of him in the same room with Ava Gardner gave me pause."
Despite having the actor's approval on her contracts, Stone claimed that movie producers repeatedly ignored her to “cast who they wanted. To my dismay, sometimes.” The actress also details how the producer in question really insisted on casting this actor, even “when he couldn't get a whole scene out on the test.”
“Do you think if I fuck him, he'll become a good actor? Nobody is that good in bed. I felt like they could have cast a talented co-star, someone who could do the scene and remember the lines for him. I also felt like they could fuck with him themselves and leave me out of it. It was my job to act and I said so."
Some are guessing that the unnamed player is Stone's "Sliver" producer, the late Robert Evans of "The Godfather," who was formerly an actor who co-starred with Gardner in 1957's "The Sun Also Rises." The legendary Evans died at age 89 in 2019 after a late-career resurgence of him as the subject of the acclaimed documentary inspired by his own memoir, "The Kid Stays in the Picture."
Of course, Stone wrote that she turned down the offer to help save the movie with his body.
