Nicole Kidman Pauses Filming of Babygirl

Nicole Kidman revealed that while filming the erotic drama 'Babygirl,' she experienced such intense emotions that she had to pause production at times due to feelings of burnout. At 57, Kidman plays Romy, a high-powered CEO who engages in a passionate affair with her younger intern, Samuel (played by Harris Dickinson, 28). The scenes required significant emotional sharing and trust, leading to moments where Kidman felt overwhelmed, stating, 'I don't want to orgasm anymore' and expressing a desire to avoid being touched. The film, which premieres in the US on Christmas Day and in the UK on January 10, has already garnered critical acclaim, with Kidman winning Best Actress at the Venice Film Festival. She was drawn to the project as it represented uncharted territory in her acting career, allowing her to explore deeper aspects of human connection. The film's provocative narrative has drawn comparisons to past Hollywood erotic thrillers, indicating a return to a more daring cinematic approach.
