Nicole Kidman had to take a break from filming the erotic drama “Babygirl”. The reason was the explicit sex scenes.
For Nicole Kidman, filming the erotic thriller “Babygirl” was a particularly intense experience. While filming with her co-star Harris Dickinson, there were moments “when I thought, ‘I don’t want to have an orgasm anymore,'” she revealed. She further explained her thoughts while filming: “‘Don’t come near me. I hate doing that. I don’t care and if I’m never touched again in my life! I’m sick of it.’ It was so present for me that it was almost like burnout.” In the meantime, she had to stop filming the sex scenes.
“Babygirl” with Nicole Kidman: An affair gets out of control
Kidman plays the successful entrepreneur Romy Miller in the film by Halina Reijn. She shares her private happiness with her husband (Antonio Banderas) and her two daughters. But then intern Samuel (Dickinson) comes into her life, igniting repressed passions in her. She puts everything at risk with her affair.
The Sun further explained to Kidman that there was “a tremendous amount of communication and trust and then frustration” between her and her co-stars. Nevertheless, “we all treated each other very, very carefully and helped each other,” she said.
In addition to an intimacy coordinator (You can read more about this profession here) The fact that there was a woman behind the camera helped. “I don’t think I would have been able to work with a man,” admitted Kidman. “I think I was only able to do this with her because the two of us sat down and talked.” The actress went on to say that she found the script “funny” when she first read it, but at the same time she was “turned on by it” and “kind of hypnotized.”

Successful erotic series that hardly anyone knows
Before accepting the role, she shared with husband Keith Urban and their children: “Unfortunately, when you have a family at home, you have to make some kind of agreement where you say, ‘I’m going to commit to this project now and I ask your permission to let me go.’ So you’re released into your artistic life and then you return to your home and your real life. It’s a kind of letting go that’s required.”
“Babygirl” had its world premiere in competition at the Venice Film Festival on August 30, and Kidman won Best Actress for her performance. The film opens in German cinemas on January 30, 2025.
