Director Lee Tamahori Signs On For 'Risk Addiction'

[Wednesday, June 4th, 2003]
Die Another Day director Lee Tamahori is signing on to develop and direct MGM's Risk Addiction, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Once billed as the sequel to 'Basic Instinct', the project is now being fashioned as a stand-alone psychological sexual thriller and is gearing up to start production in the fall.

The project centers on a female photographer and how she manipulates a male psychologist/psychiatrist who has been assigned to her case. The character of the photographer in 'Risk Addiction' originally carried the moniker of Sharon Stone's memorable role -- Catherine Tramell -- but is now being called Elizabeth Cole as part of the new turn the project has taken since the departure of Stone in early 2001.
