STONE POURS CASH INTO UK FILMS

Actress SHARON STONE is planning to team up with a British
movie production company, and launch a $100 million (GBP56 million) fund to make
new films. The BASIC INSTINCT star has always been enthusiastic about the UK movie industry, and has finally found a way to get involved first-hand. A source tells British newspaper The Daily Telegraph, "Stone has always been a shrewd businesswoman first and foremost. "She has come to Cannes to meet with Brass Hat, one of the UK's leading film production companies, which has just co-produced SANDRA BULLOCK's new film PREMONITION. "She's been keen to be involved in the British film scene for a few years now, having already produced seven films in the United States. This is the perfect opportunity for her."
