Former England footballer Stan Collymore has won a role alongside actress Sharon Stone in the blockbuster sequel to Basic Instinct, it was confirmed today

The ex-Aston Villa and Liverpool striker will make a cameo appearance in Basic Instinct 2: Risk Addiction, reportedly having sex with the blonde star in a car.

The film is due to start shooting on Monday and will be made at the world-famous Pinewood Studios and on location in London.

The film's spokeswoman confirmed Collymore had won a role: "He has got a part in the film, yes. It is only a small part, but he has been confirmed on this. He has really just only been signed."

She added: "I can't go into detail of character or the plot. There is a certain amount of mystery, so I can't go into too much detail."

The Sun newspaper said today that 33-year-old Collymore will feature in a thrilling opening scene, having sex with Stone in a sports car speeding through London.

But it added the erstwhile footballer will be killed off within 30 seconds, after the £180,000 Spyker C8 Laviolette ploughs into the Thames, and he drowns.

He gained notoriety in 1998 when he hit his then-lover Ulrika Jonsson, and his reputation was further battered last year when it was revealed he participated in "dogging" - voyeuristic sex with strangers.

The original 1992 film, which starred Michael Douglas and catapulted Stone to superstardom, became famous for the moment she uncrossed her legs to reveal she was wearing no underwear.

In the sequel, Stone reprises her role as icepick-wielding bisexual killer Catherine Tramell, while British actor David Morrissey plays a criminal psychiatrist who is appointed by Scotland Yard to evaluate her and soon falls under her spell.
