Nicole Kidman had to pause filming 'Babygirl' sex scene because she no longer wanted to 'orgasm'


Nicole Kidman admits in a new interview that she got so hot and bothered while filming sex scenes for her upcoming erotic thriller, “Babygirl,” that she felt repulsed by the idea of ​​”touching” at points.

“There were times when we were shooting where I was like, 'I don't want to orgasm anymore,'” the award-winning actress, 57, told The Sun on Tuesday.

“Don't come near me. I hate it. I don't care if I'm never touched again in my life!”

In the upcoming rated-R movie, Kidman plays a high-powered CEO who becomes involved with a much younger man, played by Harrison Dickinson. 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.”

He admitted that there was “too much sharing and trust and then disappointment” between him and his co-stars.

However, Kidman noted that she, Dickinson, 28, and Banderas, 64, all took “a lot of care” to tell the film's story.

“We were all very gentle with each other and helped each other – Harris, Antonio,” he said.

The trio also worked with an intimacy coordinator for the scenes, but Kidman said she and her co-stars still didn't feel “confined” by what they were told to do or not do.

“I'm still a huge believer in the sanctity of the set or actors' space, and that's never violated,” he explained. “Because it's us, it's the bubble, and then there's the outside world.”

The “Bombshell” star added that having a female director, Halina Raine, on set was also helpful because then she “didn't feel exploited.”

“I don't think I could have done it, working with a man,” Kidman admits. “I actually think the only way I could have done it was with him because the two of us would sit down and talk.”

The A-lister said he and Rezon, 48, sat down before filming and talked about his most “secret desires”.

“We talked a lot and still do, it's so secretive and vulnerable – but it's safe,” he said.

“Having Halina in my hands, I knew she wouldn't exploit me. … I felt a part of it. This is the story I wanted to be a part of, the story I wanted to tell, and every part of me was committed to it.”

Kidman also shared that when she read the script, she thought it was “very funny” but was also “turned on by it” and “kind of mesmerized”.

The “Eyes Wide Shut” star — who is married to country star Keith Urban and shares daughters Sunday Rose, 16, and Faith Margaret, 13, with him — said she chatted with her family before accepting the role.

“When you have a family at home and everything, there has to be some kind of agreement where you go, 'I'm going to this now and I'm asking your permission to let me go,'” Kidman explained.

“And I have teenage children who understand that and a husband who's also an artist, so you're released into your artistic life and then you come back to your home and your real life.”

“But there's a kind of letting go that's necessary,” he added.
