Sharon Stone wasn't a big name and didn't read for the part, fearing she'd be disappointed. When she finally read the script and knew she was right for the role, she didn't want to call Paul Verhoeven (whom she had worked with on Atto di forza (1990)) and ask if she could audition for him. "I wouldn't ask, because I didn't want him to test me just because he felt obligated," she told Playboy. One day, Verhoeven had her come in to dub lines for an airplane version of Atto di forza (1990), so she wore a tight Catherine-esque dress to demonstrate to Verhoeven that she could play the man-eater part. "I was being cool. Very cool," she said. "I didn't want him to think I was insane, but I did want to give him a general idea that I could transform myself. Men are visually stimulated, and that's usually enough, at least at first." The dress worked, and Stone tested with Michael Douglas and won the role.
