Nicole Kidman Got Orgasm ‘Burnout’ From Filming ‘Babygirl’

Actress Nicole Kidman got “burned out” from all the orgasms she was performing on the set of erotic thriller Babygirl, the Oscar winner told The Sun. “There was an enormous amount of sharing and trust and then frustration,” she said of shooting the film’s graphic sex scenes. “There were times when we were shooting where I was like, ‘I don’t want to orgasm anymore. Don’t come near me. I hate doing this. I don’t care if I am never touched again in my life!’” The 57-year-old says she’s “over it” now, but at the time it was “almost like a burnout.” Kidman has been getting rave reviews for her portrayal of Romy, a high-powered CEO at a robotics company who begins exploring a latent BDSM kink during an affair with an intern. The Hollywood veteran has done her plenty of sex scenes over her decades-long career—including the orgy scene in Eyes Wide Shut. But even by those standards, her performance in Babygirl is being hailed as no-holds-barred. Kidman filed the sex scenes with Harris Dickinson, who plays the intern, and Antonio Banderas, who plays her husband. “I read the script and I thought it was funny,” Kidman told The Sun. “But I also was turned on by it. I was also sort of hypnotized.”
