Where is the 'Basic Instinct' cast now? On the heels of the thriller's 30th anniversary, fans are wondering what the iconic cast is up to today.
Well-written films age like fine wine. Friday, March 20, 1992, marked the release of the erotic thriller Basic Instinct. The film focuses on a San Francisco police detective Nick Curran (Michael Douglas) who is investigating the murder of a rock star and club owner. Unfortunately, Nick becomes involved with the prime suspect, author Catherine Tramell (Sharon Stone), who strangely wrote a book that’s eerily similar to the circumstances in the film.
Fast-forward to 30 years later, Basic Instinct is still considered a classic thriller. The movie serves up mystery, intimacy, and the right amount of suspense to keep audiences hooked. And since the film stars a few Hollywood heavyweights, fans are wondering what the cast has been up to over the last three decades. Here's everything we know!
