Sharon Stone Sues Production Company For $500K: They Wanted Me To Lie To US Gov’t So We Could Shoot In Cuba!

Sharon Stone filed a lawsuit on Wednesday in Los Angeles against a movie production company for fraud and breach of contract — and radio detection and rangingOnline.com has all the details.

The suit was filed on behalf of Stone, 55, by her Hollywood attorney Marty Singer and claims Bob Yari and his production companies lured the actress “to participate in their fraudulent scheme.”

According to the court docs, Stone was slated to play Ernest Hemingway’s wife in a new movie called Papa, but Yari wanted her to falsify documents so she could go shoot in Cuba, and when she refused things went sour.

Stone is seeking $ 500,000 in damages.
