Billy Baldwin Says One Hollywood Costar Is Off His List for Good
Baldwin said Stone stopped speaking to him after a few weeks, and he refused to kiss her as producers pushed for better performances.
- On Tuesday, Billy Baldwin told the Guerrero Unleashed podcast he would never work with Sharon Stone again, citing "tension" from their 1993 erotic thriller Sliver.
- While the pair worked well together initially, Baldwin claimed the actress stopped speaking to him after three weeks, causing significant friction on set during production.
- Before the final scene, Baldwin requested a meeting with producer Robert Evans, eventually asking him not to require the kiss. Evans suggested Stone sleep with her costar to improve their chemistry.
- Stone recounted Evans's proposal in her 2021 memoir The Beauty of Living Twice, describing it as upsetting because she had contractual approval of her leading man. The tension reportedly left everyone on set miserable.
- Now 63, Baldwin expressed displeasure that Stone "badmouthed" him in her book, though the two have crossed paths since filming but never spoken. He said he would love to bury the hatchet eventually.
