Biography

::figure[src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/f/fd/Sean_Christopher_Stone(0).jpg" caption="Stone with a necklace with [[Zulfiqar]] (the sword of [[Ali]]), a symbol of [[Shia Islam]]. Stone was a convert to that religion."] ::

Stone was born in New York City. He is the son of Elizabeth Burkit Cox and film director Oliver Stone and has appeared in several of his father's films. His paternal grandmother was French.

A convert to Shia Islam in 2012, in an interview with CNN, Stone said that he accepted Muhammad as the seal of the prophets. Speaking to Bill O'Reilly, he claimed Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's statements about Israel had been misunderstood.

Stone is a member of the Board of Advisors for the company MindShare Ventures Group based in New York City.

In his last episode on RT America, Stone criticized celebrities for speaking out against Russia's invasion, and claimed that Oprah Winfrey had banned Tolstoy's War and Peace from her book club, and said it was wrong to characterize Russian leader Vladimir Putin as "some kind of dictator".
