Sharon Stone is poised for her Hollywood comeback .
When many people think of actress Sharon Stone ’ s leading roles , they might think back to Basic Instinct , which was made in 1992 . ( Let ’ s put it in perspective — if Basic Instinct was a person , they ’ d be graduated from college , working , and possibly a parent by now .) Luckily for her biggest fans , Stone has done some incredible work since her Basic Instinct days — including a recent comeback that proves the 60-year-old is a Hollywood force to be reckoned with .
One part of Stone ’ s re-emergence is her leading role in the film All I Wish .
“ To see Sharon Stone in a movie these days is to be reminded of how much you ’ ve missed her since the last one ,” notes an article in Variety magazine . “ Her star quality is particular : a cool , crackling , slightly ribald confidence in her own charisma that hasn ’ t been especially well-tended , much less replicated , by Hollywood in the last 20-odd years …”
In an article by the Chicago Tribune — and also noted by several other media outlets — it comes to light that Stone advocated for a role meant for a woman half her age in All I Wish .
“ The most remarkable thing about All I Wish , written and directed by Susan Walter , is the casting — but what a difference it makes for this light romantic comedy ,” the Chicago Tribune notes . “ Star Sharon Stone was originally offered the mother role , but convinced Walter she should play the daughter , Senna , instead . So Senna became 46 , not 25 , and Stone stepped into one of her more winning roles in a long time . With an older woman as the lead , this cute rom-com takes on a greater depth and poignancy than it would have with standard 20-something stars .”
A recent article in Salon provides its readers with a comprehensive summary of All I Wish ’ s plotline : “ Sharon Stone plays Senna , a vivacious 46-year-old woman whose life unfolds one birthday at a time over a succession of years . Dreaming of being a fashion designer , Senna works as a buyer for a boutique . The day she loses her job is also the night she meets Adam ( Tony Goldwyn ),
