According to Page Six, Sharon Stone has identified the legendary Hollywood producer who coerced her into having sex with a co-star in order to obtain a “better” performance from the actor. The ‘Basic Instinct’ actress stated that during the 1993 thriller ‘Sliver’ filming, producer Robert Evans (who passed away in 2019) attempted to coerce her into having sex with Billy Baldwin.

On Tuesday’s episode of Spotify’s Louis Theroux Podcast, the actress shared that the ‘Godfather’ producer called her to his office in the middle of her shoot and said that getting intimate with Billy Baldwin would save the film.

‘He called me to his office. He had these very low ’70s, and ’80s couches, so I’m essentially sitting on the floor when I should have been on set. And he’s running around his office in sunglasses explaining to me that he slept with Ava Gardner and I should sleep with Billy Baldwin, because if I slept with Billy Baldwin, Billy Baldwin’s performance would get better, and we needed Billy to get better in the movie because that was the problem,” the 66-year-old said during the podcast. 

Meanwhile, Mr Baldwin hit back at her accusations in a lengthy post on X and threatened to ”write a book and tell the many, many disturbing, kinky and unprofessional tales about Sharon.”

”Not sure why Sharon Stone keeps talking about me all these years later? Does she still have a crush on me or is she still hurt after all these years because I shunned her advances?… I have so much dirt on her it would make her head spin but I’ve kept quiet”, he wrote on X.  He also shared a picture of him and Ms Stone during an intimate scene in the movie.
