Sharon Stone Manipulates More Men to 'Satisfaction'

13 October 2009 4:46 PM, PDT | Cinematical | See recent Cinematical news »

If the name Sharon Stone pops up, most likely the brain will fly to memories of the woman who has made a name for herself as the man-izer -- strong and wickedly ruthless to the male sex. It's a theme so rampant in her work that it even became a reference point in Scream: "Your mother is no Sharon Stone." Naturally then, when it's time to cast a "rich and manipulative older woman," sights turn to the tow-headed vixen.

Variety reports that Stone and Carice Van Houten are going to star in a new indie drama called Satisfaction. Written by Simon Burke and to be directed by Anya Camilleri, the film will focus on "a young gigolo in London" who gets caught between Stone's manipulation and a "younger woman" (Van Houten). Variety makes no mention of who will play the gigolo, but according to Stone's recent talk with Prestige, Chris Evans will be the dude. »

Sharon Stone and Carice Van Houten Seek ‘Satisfaction’

13 October 2009 11:19 AM, PDT | FilmSchoolRejects.com | See recent FilmSchoolRejects news »

What do having sex with Sharon Stone, having sex with Carice Van Houten, and having sex for money have in common? I'll give you a hint, and it's not having sex: these two actresses will play the women a British gigolo is torn between in the newest indie drama, Satisfaction. The film will begin production in early 2010, and is to be directed by Anya Camilleri (Ny-Lon). Variety reports that John Evangelides (A Good Woman) and Cerise Hallam Larkin (I Could Never Be Your Woman) will produce, and Simon Burke (The Picture of Dorian Gray, Liverpool, Ny-Lon) is spearheading the script. For an indie film, these are two hard-hitting leading ladies. Stone will play a cougar caught in a love triangle with her gigolo and his younger woman, played by Van Houten. Stone, who is 51 and single, doesn't mind playing a cougar, but made it pretty clear at the Hamptons Film Festival that she doesn't want to be »

The indie production, Satisfaction, has found its leading ladies with the casting of Sharon Stone and Carice Van Houten. For an indie production, we all have to agree that's one helluva start.

Sharon Stone, Carice Van Houten for Satisfaction

Sharon Stone Seeks Satisfaction

12 October 2009 7:50 PM, PDT | Atomic Popcorn | See recent Atomic Popcorn news »

Sharon Stone, the somewhat legendary sex symbol who emphasized the sex part of that term in films like Basic Instinct, has joined the cast of the U.K.-produced film Satisfaction. The film will be directed by Anya Camilleri, who’s somewhat of an unknown responsible for the Tara Reid vehicle Incubus.

Alongside Stone is Carice Van Houten, recently seen in Valkyrie as Tom Cruise’s character’s wife. The film revolves around “a young gigolo in London, who finds himself caught between a rich and manipulative older woman (Stone) and a younger woman (Van Houten).” Stone as a seductress? You don’t say.

The script for the film, which will start shooting early next year, has been penned by Simon Burke, the man behind Camilleri’s NY-lon and Persuasion. Thus, we have a crew with a predominantly small screen background working towards a theatrical break. Will it be enough »

Sharon Stone Will Be Helping Out A Prostitute

6 October 2009 7:38 AM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »

Sharon Stone might be more famous for being sexually provacative than any other actress her age-- except Courtney Love, maybe, but we're not talking about her here. Sharon Stone is the woman who crossed her legs in Basic Instinct, and even at the age of 51 continues to be an icon of powerful, somewhat terrifying female sexuality. But when I tell you that she's going to star in a movie about prostitution, hold your horses. Stone won't be playing the prostitute in question. She told Pretige, a Hong Kong magazine, that her next project will be Satisfaction, about a young male prostitute (played by Chris Evans) who loses the support of one older woman (Carice van Houten) and winds up with another (Stone). In Stone's words: He goes looking for someone else to take care of him and he keeps trying to come on to [my character]. You think they have »

Sharon Stone Wants Satisfaction

6 October 2009 3:30 AM, PDT | Screenrush | See recent Screenrush news »

What the hell happened to Sharon Stone? She was a jobbing D-lister for years before a breakthrough role in Basic Instinct thrust her onto the A-list but while there she did little of note except for a solid performance in Martin Scorsese's (not as good as Goodfellas) gangster-epic Casino before disappearing into charity-work, red-carpet appearances, taking shocking roles in terrible films, and posing topless at the age of 51.

Then, just when we were about to forget her, here she is in the magazine Prestige telling us all about how she's set to start filming a new film in London and Rome alongside Chris Evans and Carice Van Houten.

"It's about a male prostitute in London who loses the older woman who's been taking care of him, and the call-out agency he's worked for is tired of his behaviour and don't want to send him out any more. He goes »
