According to FilmNews.co.uk, Sharon Stone revealed that she had pitched the Barbie movie to top executives in the film industry as far back as the 1990s. The actress emphasized that she presented the idea to studio executives in the mid-’90s, following the success of her film “Basic Instinct,” which was a box office hit.
She recalled how the studio rejected her Barbie idea, despite having the support of one of the heads of Barbie. However, Stone expressed gratitude for the progress that has been made since then, recognizing the empowerment of women. The 65-year-old actress has always spoken highly of Margot Robbie‘s portrayal of Barbie in the recent film.
During her appearance on the Lady Gang Podcast, Stone revealed that she would like Margot Robbie to portray her in a biopic, citing Robbie’s talent and her skilled portrayal of Tonya Harding.
