Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Stone reportedly earned $13 million for this, making her one of Hollywood's highest-paid actresses at the time despite the film's critical slaughter.
The original director Michael Douglas fought to stop this sequel; Sharon Stone won a legal battle to make it happen. The result: 14 years later, still no Basic Instinct 3.
