Overview
- Stone, 68, made the remark Wednesday on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live and said he "kissed me right out of my shoes."
- She described a Casino scene where her hustler character pushed for more cash, De Niro’s character upped it from $50 to $100, and she leaned in for a kiss that "knocked" her out.
- Stone said director Martin Scorsese cut the take and then asked if they wanted another, and both actors agreed to do one more.
- She has repeated similar praise since 2020 and has framed De Niro, along with costar Joe Pesci, as respectful compared with men she has called misogynistic in past work.
- Coverage of her April 1 comments spread across outlets on April 2 and April 3, and no public response from De Niro has been reported.
