Sharon Stone Naked in Basic Instinct 2

Sharon Stone is going to be nude in the sequel to Basic Instinct.

It may not be what Sharon Stone wants to discuss, but the actress is happy to confirm that, yes, she does indeed get naked in her next movie, the sequel to the 1992 hit “Basic Instinct.”

In Israel to promote International Women’s Day, Stone was badgered not about the fairer sex, but instead about her role as a sexed-up serial killer in “Basic Instinct 2″ Wednesday. “People are just sitting there going, like, ‘I don’t care what she’s saying. I don’t care what she’s saying. I just want to know is she getting naked? Is she getting naked in that movie? Is she naked? Nude? Nude? Naked? Do I see her boobies?’” the actress, now 48, told reporters, laughingly.

“So let’s just get through to that. Yes! And now that I’ve cleared that up, let’s just go to the next question, because nobody cares about anything else, really,” she said.

“Basic Instinct 2″ opens March 31 in the United States.

My basic instinct was that it would have been decidedly more interesting had she been naked in the original. Not that she doesn’t look fantastic for a 48-year-old, but she was substantially hotter 14 years ago. It turns out that I was a bit hasty. Here are some promo shots from Esquire:

I stand corrected.

Update: The Feeding Tube has some decidedly not-safe-for-work screen caps.

Update 2: Female First brings word that, “Sharon Stone wanted the sex scenes in ‘Basic Instinct 2′ to be ‘disturbing’.”

The sexy star was determined the erotic thriller should shock its audience and told the director not to waste her full-frontal nude shots. She revealed: “I felt we should hold off on the full nudity for a while in the movie and then I thought that when I ultimately did do the nude scene it should be done in a startling way that would be disturbing and threatening.”

The stunning mum recently admitted she wanted to make the most of the sex scenes in the movie because it could be the last time she strips off in front of the camera. Sharon is quoted by Britain’s Evening Standard newspaper: “I wanted to do the nudity in a way that’s quite brazen. I wanted her to be very masculine, like a man in a steam room. “I wanted the audience to have a moment where they realize she’s naked and then realize she’s a forty-something woman and naked.”

The screen shots look more “hot” than “disturbing.” Perhaps we need some moving video.
