Sharon Stone said she wasn’t consulted about a new director’s cut of Basic Instinct, the racy erotic thriller she starred in decades ago.
The actress, now 63, told Tracy Grimshaw on A Current Affair she thinks “there’s more to come” regarding the film, when asked about the MeToo movement.
The film features a pivotal scene in which Stone is filmed up her skirt while crossing and uncrossing her legs. Stone has previously claimed she was exploited during and after the production of the film.
Stone said new Screen Actors Guild rules meant if the film were made today, she may be able to block its release – but because they only came into effect recently, the rules “don’t apply” to her.

“I think there’s more to come on that. They’ve decided to release the director’s XXX cut for the 30th anniversary,” Stone said, prompting a shocked reaction from Grimshaw.
“Yeah, your face is what my face looked like when I heard the news.”
