Nicole Kidman Opens Up About Emotional and Physical Challenges Filming Babygirl
Renowned for her versatility and dedication, Nicole Kidman recently shared insights into the intense challenges she encountered while filming her latest movie, Babygirl. Kidman portrays a powerful executive who risks her career and family through an affair with a much younger intern, portrayed by Harris Dickinson. Antonio Banderas plays her on-screen husband, adding depth to the character dynamics.
At 57, Kidman admitted that filming wasn’t easy, noting that some scenes became overwhelmingly intense, often requiring her to take breaks to regain her composure. She highlighted the emotional weight of intimate scenes, especially those with Banderas and Dickinson, calling them emotionally exhausting. In her own words, she explained, “There was an enormous level of engagement and trust, then frustration, then a sense of ‘don’t touch me.’”
The physical and emotional demands of the role left Kidman feeling drained. “It was always there for me to the point of being almost exhausting,” she confessed, humorously adding, “I don’t care if I never get affected again in my life!”
Harris Dickinson, 28, also spoke on the challenges of the film, mentioning he often needed solitary moments on set. “There were times when I had to ask everyone to give me a second alone,” he shared during a recent press event.
The film, directed by Halina Reijn, delves into the life of Kidman’s character, a successful executive jeopardizing her career and family for an affair with a young intern. With such intense scenes and complex themes, Babygirl promises a compelling exploration of love, power, and vulnerability.
