The film was released on [[Netflix]], to critical acclaim. [[Owen Gleiberman]] described her appearance as a "marketing hook" and further stated: "The presence of Sharon Stone embodies the spirit of [the Hollywood] machine. She has always been a good actress (probably better than many know; just watch her in ''Casino''), but her fame will forever rest on a certain crudely riveting but debased high-budget exploitation thriller".<ref>{{cite web |url=https://variety.com/2019/film/columns/why-did-martin-scorsese-prank-his-audience-in-rolling-thunder-revue-1203243856/ |title=Why Did Martin Scorsese Prank His Audience in 'Rolling Thunder Revue'?

In [[Netflix]]'s psychological thriller series ''[[Ratched (TV series)|Ratched]]'' (2020), a prequel to [[Miloš Forman]]'s 1975 film ''[[One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (film)|One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest]]'' developed by [[Ryan Murphy (producer)|Ryan Murphy]], Stone portrayed a wealthy heiress who hires a hit man to kill a doctor for disfiguring her son. Intrigued by Murphy's pitch for her character, which he wrote for her, Stone described the part as "completely insane. And at the same time she thinks she's really a loving mother who has her shit together".<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.townandcountrymag.com/society/money-and-power/a33915326/sharon-stone-nurse-ratched-interview-2020/|title=Sharon Stone's Done with Monkey Business—Mostly|first=Hunter|last=Harris|date=September 16, 2020|website=Town & Country|access-date=February 9, 2022|archive-date=February 5, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220205233459/https://www.townandcountrymag.com/society/money-and-power/a33915326/sharon-stone-nurse-ratched-interview-2020/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://deadline.com/2019/01/ratched-sharon-stone-cynthia-nixon-10-cast-ryan-murphy-netflix-series-sarah-paulson-1202535205/|title='Ratched': Sharon Stone, Cynthia Nixon Among 10 Cast In Ryan Murphy's Netflix Series|author=Denise Petski|work=Deadline|date=January 14, 2019|access-date=January 20, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190115075834/https://deadline.com/2019/01/ratched-sharon-stone-cynthia-nixon-10-cast-ryan-murphy-netflix-series-sarah-paulson-1202535205/|archive-date=January 15, 2019|url-status=live}}</ref> The series garnered a decent critical response and was viewed by 48 million people in its first four weeks of release.<ref>{{cite tweet |user=netflix|author=Netflix|number=1317125663631892481|date=October 16, 2020|title=In its first 28 days, 48 million members have booked an appointment with Nurse Ratched, making it our biggest original Season 1 of the year.|archive-date=October 20, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201020142909/https://twitter.com/netflix/status/1317125663631892481|url-status=live}}</ref> In 2020 Stone appeared as herself in an introduction to the fifth episode of [[The New Pope]], where she had an audience with [[John Malkovich]] as Pope John Paul III.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://decider.com/2020/02/10/the-new-pope-sharon-stone-cameo//|title='The New Pope' Made Such An Obvious Leg-Crossing Joke With Sharon Stone It Was Actually…Brilliant?|first=Hunter|last=Harris|date=February 10, 2020|website=Decider|access-date=July 3, 2022|archive-date=July 4, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220704000956/https://decider.com/2020/02/10/the-new-pope-sharon-stone-cameo/|url-status=live}}</ref>
