Nicole Kidman, 57, says she had to pause filming s€.x scenes of new movie because she didn’t want to ‘org@sm anymore’
Actress, Nicole Kidman has admitted in a new interview that she got so hot and bothered during the s3x scenes for her upcoming erotic thriller, “Babygirl,” that she felt she wanted to stop filming at certain points. “Don’t come near me. I hate doing this. I don’t care if I am never touched again in my life!” In the upcoming rated-R movie, Nicole plays a high-powered CEO who gets into an affair with a much-younger man played by Harrison Dickinson while her husband is played by Antonio Banderas. The “Moulin Rouge” star added that she was “so present all the time” during the sex scenes that it was “almost burnout” for her, noting that she often felt pushed to a point where she was just “over it.” She recognized there was “an enormous amount of sharing and trust and then frustration” between her and her co-actors. Being in the hands of Halina I knew she wasn’t going to exploit me. … I felt very much a part of it. It’s the story that I wanted to be a part of, that I wanted to tell, and every part of me was committed to that.” The star who is married to country singer Keith Urban and shares daughters Sunday Rose, 16, and Faith Margaret, 13, with him said she chatted with her family before accepting the role. “And I have teenage children who understand it and a husband who’s also an artist, so there’s a releasing of you into your artistic life and then you come back to your home and your real life.” “But there is a sort of letting go that’s required.” she added
“There were times when we were shooting where I was like, ‘I don’t want to org@.sm any more,'” the award-winning actress, 57, told the Sun on Tuesday, October 22
However, Kidman pointed out that she, Dickinson, 28, and Banderas, 64, all took “enormous care” in telling the film’s story.
“We were all very, very gentle with each other and helped each other — Harris, Antonio,” she said.
The three of them also worked with an intimacy coordinator for the scenes, but Kidman said she and her co-stars still did not feel “confined” by what they were instructed to do or not to do.
“I’m a huge believer still in the sacredness of the set or the actors’ space, and it never, never being violated. Because it’s ours, it’s the bubble, and then there’s the world outside.” she explained.
The “Bombshell” star added that it was also helpful for her to have a female director, Halina Reijn, on set so she “didn’t feel exploited.”
“I don’t think I could have done it, working with a man,” Kidman admitted. “I actually think the only way I could do this was with her because the two of us would sit and talk.”
The Actress said she and Reijn, 48, sat down prior to filming and talked about her most “secretive desires.”
“We talked about so many things and still do, that is so secretive and vulnerable — but it’s safe,” she said.
Kidman also shared that when she read the script, she thought it was “so funny” but was also “turned on by it” and “also sort of hypnotized.”
When you have a family at home and everything, there has to be a sort of agreement that’s made where you go, ‘I’m now going to go into this and I’m asking your permission to let me go,'” Kidman explained.
