Eventually Tarantino did get a script done and started preproduction, but by then Thurman was pregnant with her son Roan, now 20 months. (Thurman and Hawke also have a daughter Maya Ray, 5.) Tarantino, who likes to use nuclear hyperbole when mere exaggeration would do, says replacing Thurman with another actress was out of the question. "Would Sergio Leone have replaced Eastwood in A Fistful of Dollars? Would von Sternberg have replaced Dietrich in Morocco?" he asks.

Kathy Leih's two daughters didn't last even a year at Paramount. One spring morning three years ago, they piled into the school van with their classmates...

In the same week that Stone, 42, and husband Phil Bronstein, 47, adopted a baby boy named Roan Joseph, the actress signed a reported $15 million deal to reprise her erogenous zone-baring role in the sequel to Basic Instinct. Stone had studiously avoided Basic Instinct 2 for years (though for some reason she agreed to do Gloria, Sliver and The Muse), but relented when original producer Mario Kassar regained the film rights.
