AceShowbiz - Singer and former topless model Samantha Fox is eager to land Sharon Stone to star in a biographical series about her colourful life.
The British star is developing a TV series that will chart her rise to fame, starting with glamour modelling in 1983 when she posed topless on Page Three of The Sun newspaper at the age of 16, before launching a pop career and scoring a global hit with her 1986 single "Touch Me (I Want Your Body)".
Fox is in discussions with a number of production officials about the project, and she would love for the "Basic Instinct" actress - whom she has admired for decades - to portray her in the latter part of her life.
Speaking about her casting hopes in an interview on U.K. TV show "Loose Women", the 55-year-old said, "There's got to be three different Samantha Foxes; the kid Samantha Fox, the Page 3 girl Samantha Fox - hopefully whoever we cast as the glamour model can sing too - and then obviously an older one as I am now."
"Who I'd like to play me now is somebody like Sharon Stone. I'd love Sharon Stone to play for me, that would be wonderful!"
In addition to developing the biographical series, Fox has been busy planning her wedding to her fiancee Linda Olsen.
The couple became engaged in February, 2020 after five years of dating, and the brides-to-be are patiently waiting for further COVID-19 restrictions to be lifted in the U.K. before they can set a date for their big day.
However, the ladies intend to have a traditional ceremony with both brides wearing white gowns.
Fox spilled, "We're gonna have a very big, traditional wedding with all our loved ones and closest friends, not so many celebrities. I know a couple who are very close, but no fair weather friends, just close friends and family. I've been in the business for over 40 years so I've invited people who have helped me along the way and stood by my side all these years."
"Linda's got a lot of family coming from Sweden and Norway. We're just hoping that when the government make their announcement on June 21 it's going to be a good announcement and we can have all our family and friends from overseas."
"It's going to be very traditional - white dresses, not seeing each [other] the night before."
Fox was previously in a long-term relationship with her manager Myra Stratton until she tragically died in 2015 from breast cancer, aged 60.
