Nicole Kidman blushes over bold sexual questions about intimacy in her new movie

Nicole Kidman, the beautiful australian actress known for her versatility, recently opened up about her role in the upcoming film Babygirl. The 57-year-old star portrays Romy, a married, high-ranking CEO who embarks on a forbidden romance with a much younger intern, Samuel, played by Harris Dickinson.

The film delves into themes of sexuality, power, and self-discovery, presenting a narrative that Kidman found uniquely compelling. "From the minute I read it, I was like, 'Yeah, this is a voice I haven't seen, this is a place that I haven't been,'" she shared with the Hollywood Reporter.

Kidman admitted that her character's journey was deeply intriguing, particularly as it explored aspects of identity and desire at a stage in life often overlooked in mainstream storytelling. "My character has reached a stage where she's got all this power, but she's not sure who she is, what she wants, what she desires, even though she seems to have it all," she explained.

For Kidman, this complexity was relatable and refreshing. She also noted the significance of playing a sexual being at her age, saying, "A lot of times, women are discarded at a certain period of their career as a sexual being. So it was really beautiful to be seen in this way."

The film's exploration of sexuality and its portrayal of intimate moments posed unique challenges for Kidman. When asked how she managed to portray different types of orgasms in the movie, the actress blushed and covered her face with both hands. "I blush, still! That's insane," she said candidly. Kidman emphasized the importance of staying in character and respecting the sacredness of the story. "I was so in character. To pull the curtain back on all of it, it's too sacred," she added.

Kidman also highlighted the importance of having women in filmmaking roles to tell diverse stories. "[Director] Halina [Reijn] has always wanted to do something like this. That's probably why we constantly say we need women in all areas of filmmaking... It's actually because it's kind of fascinating," she remarked.

Babygirl, which hits theaters on Christmas Day, promises to be an evocative cinematic experience. Kidman encouraged audiences to see the film in theaters, emphasizing the communal aspect of watching such an intimate story unfold on the big screen. "There's something extraordinary about seeing it with a group of people," she said.
