Actress Sharon Stone has opened up on the awkward position she was driven into by producer, Robert Evans when she was forced to engage in sexual relations with her co-star, Billy Baldwin.
Stone, who was on the ‘Louis Theroux’ Digital broadcast, shared that the Godfather producer called the actress to his office in her shoot and said that getting intimate with the actor would save the film. Evans informed her that having a sexual relationship with Baldwin would upgrade their on-screen rapport.
Stone revealed on the digital broadcast (podcast),
“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.” She added, “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.”
In her 2021 memoir, ‘The Beauty of Living Twice’, Sharon Stone detailed that she was in an uncomfortable position when her producer requested that she get intimate with her co-star. In the book, she composed,
“He walked back and forth in his office with the balls falling out of the spout and rolling all over the wood floor as he explained to me why I should f–k my co-star so that we could have on-screen chemistry.”
She continued,
“Now you think if I f–k him, he will become a fine actor? Nobody’s that good in bed. I felt they could have just hired a co-star with talent, someone who could deliver a scene and remember his lines.”
But in all of these revelations, Sharon didn’t reveal Evans’ or alternately Baldwin’s identities in her book.
