The Oscar-winning actress shared her experience of playing a high-powered married company executive who falls for a kinky young intern on “Babygirl.”

Nicole Kidman revealed that she was “so turned on” by her sexy new role in “Babygirl,” prompting fans to question how her husband, Keith Urban, might feel about it, with some suggesting her comments were disrespectful to him.

Kidman’s character, Romy, stripped down and engages in intimate scenes, with Samuel, played by her co-star, Harris Dickinson. Romy, a workaholic CEO, longs for domination from Samuel. The erotic thriller shows Samuel, asserting control, and telling Romy, “I tell you what to do, and you do it.”

Among the explicit commands is Romy getting on her hands and knees to drink milk from a saucer and gagging on Samuel’s tie. In a recent interview, the 57-year-old admitted that performing these intense scenes alongside Dickinson was emotionally overwhelming at times.

She divulged, “There was an enormous amount of sharing and trust and then frustration. It’s like, don’t touch me. There were times when we were shooting where I was like, ‘I don’t want to orgasm any more. Don’t come near me. I hate doing this.”

Kidman, who starred alongside Antonio Banderas as her on-screen husband, Jacob, shared that the constant intensity of the role, including faking orgasms left her feeling overwhelmed. She expressed that the experience was so consuming. Eventually, it felt as though she had reached a point of emotional burnout, leaving her indifferent to future physical interactions.

Nicole Kidman also discussed her experience exploring kink in a Q&A at the London West Hollywood in Los Angeles on October 18, 2024. She emphasized the importance of trust in building the dynamic and complexity between her character and Dickinson’s.

The “Big Little Lies” star acknowledged the mutual understanding that helped navigate the intense scenes. All these ensured Kidman and Dickson created a sense of connection and confidence during filming.

Although the actress was open and vulnerable about her experience during filming, fans were quick to criticize her, saying her comments showed a lack of respect toward her husband, Keith Urban.

One sarcastically commented, “This exactly what your husband and children need to read on the social [sic] media 🙄.” Another user full of sarcasm added, “I’m sure Keith loves hearing that.” while another warned, “Uh oh, Keith. Watch out. The line was crossed, forgetting it’s drama play…not real foreplay.”

Some people expressed concern for her husband, “Keith deserves better,” and another remarked, “Bet her husband is thrilled to read this. SMH Hollywood is sick.” Fans continued to share their fears, “I think it disrespects her husband, imo [sic],” while another speculated, “Disrespectful to her husband. I’m sure Keith Urban will start looking around for someone else now soon. 🙄”

One person questioned why filming romance scenes was that hard, “Don’t get why it has to be that extreme. Wonder how Keith will feel watching it even though filming is not as it seems on film.” The absurdity of the situation was a recurring theme, with a person saying, “Awkward for Keith Urban🤣🤣🤣.”

Others took a more critical stance, with one person declaring, “No one wants to see an old lady naked.” Some users even questioned her age appropriateness, “Isn’t she too old for this??”

One fan reflected on her previous experiences, “She’s married with kids. Time to move on to more family-friendly movies. Didn’t she say a while back that she hated making Eyes Wide Shut because of something similar?”

Another person also linked the role to her past, commenting, “She needs to avoid these kinds of movies. This scenario contributed to her divorce from Tom Cruise.”

Others accused her of chasing relevance, “This is nothing but an attempt to remain relevant while her witheringly looks disappear before her eyes.” One fan expressed disappointment in her career choices, “Sad that she is lowering herself to this point. She’s a better actress than this!!”

Despite facing criticism, Kidman expressed her long-standing desire as an actor to continually seek new experiences and challenges. She reflected on how this particular role allowed her to venture into uncharted territory, relying on the trust she built with her co-stars.

She also trusted herself to venture into an established genre to push boundaries, particularly with a female lead character driving the narrative.

The actress added, “You have your director at the helm going, ‘I will protect you. Nothing that’s going to be in the film will be anything that you are not comfortable with. You are going to be okay.”

Kidman praised director Halina Reijn for her ability to create a safe and sacred environment for actors. She appreciated how Reijn encouraged experimentation and self-expression while ensuring that the actors always felt protected.

Even so, Kidman acknowledged that there were moments when she felt apprehensive about certain scenes, expressing that it was natural to feel terrified.

However, she emphasized that whenever they faced difficulties with a scene, the priority was always comfort over time constraints, allowing for pauses to regroup and ensure everyone was on the same page.

Kidman’s scenes and experiences on “Babygirl” came after her having another on-screen romance with a younger co-star, which ignited various reactions online. As we previously reported, Kidman’s film, “A Family Affair,” left audiences stunned by her intimate scenes with Zac Efron. Urban also shared his thoughts on her daring roles.

The intimate scenes between Kidman and Efron in the 2024 romance-comedy movie, “A Family Affair,” have caught viewers off guard. The pairing of the 57-year-old veteran actress with the 36-year-old heartthrob led to a mix of shock and amusement among fans.

Social media platforms quickly filled with reactions as fans shared their thoughts and excitement. “A Family Affair,” released on Netflix in June 2024, tells the story of a young woman named Zara Ford, played by Joey King.

She is an assistant to the demanding movie star Chris Cole, portrayed by Efron. Zara’s life becomes complicated when her mother, Brooke Harwood (Kidman), starts a secret romance with Chris.

The film, which also features Kathy Bates, Liza Koshy, Wes Jetton, and more, explores the comic and dramatic consequences of this love triangle. It delves into themes of love, sex, and identity.

The film shows Zara, who still lives at home with her mother, constantly dealing with Chris’ whims and his numerous breakups. Chris promises to help Zara become a producer, but his promises remain unfulfilled, finally pushing her to quit.

Attempting to win her back, Chris visits Zara’s house, where he meets her mother, Brooke. Fascinated by Brooke, Chris initiates a relationship with her, creating new challenges for Zara.

The film’s blend of comedy and drama is highlighted in scenes where Zara amusingly stumbles upon the couple in a compromising position, adding to the film’s buzz.

“Never thought I would see Nicole Kidman hooking up with Zac Efron. Man, movies gonna be wild this year,” commented one user. Another quipped, “Watching Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman having sex was not on my 2024 bingo card.”

One X user shares, “Joey King waking into a door then smashing into a doorframe because she witnesses Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron having sex has got to be one of the funniest scenes I have ever witnessed in a movie. #AFamilyAffair.”

The chemistry between Kidman and Efron has been described as seamless and natural, contributing to the film’s overall success. Despite his initial nerves, Efron praised Kidman for her professionalism and kindness on set.

For decades, Efron has proved to be a talented actor known for his roles in both comedies and dramas. But despite his extensive experience in the industry, he said he was excited and apprehensive about filming the movie.

The prospect of performing such scenes with a veteran actress like Kidman was daunting. Efron candidly shared that he was initially nervous about their on-screen romance in “A Family Affair.”

The film marks the second time Kidman and Efron have portrayed romantic interests. They previously starred together in the 2012 movie “The Paperboy.” Their established rapport undoubtedly contributed to their convincing performances in “A Family Affair.”

“Reuniting with Nicole is always so great. As talented as she is an actress, she is equally kind and wonderful to spend time with,” Efron said. He credited Kidman’s experience and support for helping him navigate the challenging moments.

Photos from the set, released in April, teased their romantic scenes and further fueled anticipation for the movie. However, Efron described the film as “funny, romantic, and entertaining.” This highlighted the dynamic and engaging nature of their on-screen relationship.

Efron’s comments and behind-the-scenes glimpses reveal a deeper understanding of the actors’ dynamics. While Kidman takes on such roles as a married woman, her husband, Urban, has shared his views on her bold career choices.

While Kidman’s bold scenes with Efron have stirred much discussion, her husband has shown unwavering support for her career. Urban is a Grammy-winning country singer who understands the demands of Kidman’s profession.

He has made it clear that he respects her work and the choices she makes as an actress. Urban and Kidman have been married for over two decades. The singer has always been a pillar of support for her bold career choices.

In 2021, Kidman revealed that her husband’s artistic background helps him appreciate her work. “My husband is an artist, so he understands all of it and does not get involved,” Kidman explained.

She revealed that Urban doesn’t read her scripts or visit her on set during filming. This allows her to maintain her professional space. He prefers to see the final product. “He sees the show at the very end when it’s a show, all edited together, and he’s fresh eyes,” Kidman added.

His perspective provides a refreshing take on the typical concerns surrounding on-screen intimacy. Urban trusts Kidman and respects her professional decisions. He allows her to embrace challenging roles without fear of judgment.

The couple balances their busy careers with a strong commitment to family life. “We have a system worked out to keep the family together,” Kidman once said. They adjust their schedules to ensure they spend quality time as a family.

Urban’s unwavering support allows Kidman to take on diverse and daring roles. She is confident that she has a stable and understanding partner by her side.

This support is crucial for Kidman, especially when tackling controversial scenes, such as those in “A Family Affair.” Their mutual respect and understanding strengthen their relationship. It also provides a solid foundation for their family.
