Nicole Kidman Opens Up About Shocking Sex Scene in Upcoming Project
While Nicole Kidman had no trouble filming the sex scene, her co-star Harris Dickinson felt nervous and scared.
According to People , in an interview on the red carpet of the recent London West Hollywood event, Nicole Kidman said she felt very confident in Harris Dickinson, 28 years old, when the two filmed hot scenes in the movie Babygirl .
“We looked at each other and said, ‘Okay,'” Kidman said, praising director Halina Reijn for ensuring that no actor was pushed out of their comfort zone while filming the sensitive scene.
Meanwhile, Dickinson admitted that he was “really scared” to be intimate with his senior. However, he affirmed that director Reijin never forced the two actors to continue filming if they were uncomfortable.

In Babygirl , Kidman plays Romy Mathis, a beautiful, powerful executive who cheats on her husband Jacob (Antonio Banderas) with young intern Samuel (Harris Dickinson).
The film opens with a love scene and ends with Romy making love. The character confesses to having dark thoughts and a desire for adventure to escape the barriers. This detail explains why Romy is attracted to Samuel.
The erotic film caused a stir when it premiered at the Venice Film Festival in September, receiving a 90% “fresh” score from 20 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Metacritic gave the film 81/100 points, saying it “deserves universal acclaim.”
