Sharon Stone is taking a stand, demanding vaccinations on the set of a new project … but as a result, she says she’s “being threatened” with losing that job.
Sharon isn’t naming names yet, but says it’s a show shooting in Atlanta, which she calls “a good job” she really wants to do. However, she’s insisting on the same precautions Sean Penn recently did for one of his sets. The difference is … Sharon says she might get cut.
Stone is running for an actors’ union position … a seat on SAG-AFTRA’s national board of directors, and according to Deadline she laid out the COVID testing nightmare in a campaign video. In another campaign vid she reveals a health insurance nightmare that’s prompted her to run — “I lost my vested insurance after 43 years in the business because of Covid. I was $13 short and, you know, I don’t really think that that is reasonable for any of us.”
As for the COVID testing — Stone reportedly blames the Producers Guild of America for not guaranteeing everyone working on her potential show is vaccinated. It’s a very personal issue for Sharon.
As we’ve reported, her family has been ravaged by COVID-19. Last year she tearfully revealed her grandmother and godmother both died in the pandemic. Her sister and sister’s husband, Bruce, also battled the coronavirus, but survived.
Sharon is running for the SAG-AFTRA position on the same ticket as union presidential candidate Matthew Modine and Joely Fisher, who is running for treasurer.
