Nicole Kidman Says All the Orgasms in Erotic Thriller 'Babygirl' Left Her with 'Burnout'

Actors can risk anything from on-set injuries to typecasting, but Nicole Kidman revealed a new danger when she described the "burnout" she suffered from the many orgasms she needed to portray in "Babygirl."

In fact, Kidman said in comments to The Sun, "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!'"

"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 Daily Beast recalled.

Kidman shares sizzling screen time with both "Beach Rats" star Harris Dickinson, who plays the intern, Samuel, and Spanish hunk Antonio Banderas, who plays her character's husband – an assignment that brings some heat to a resume that already includes "plenty of sex scenes over her decades-long career," the Beast noted, "including the orgy scene in 'Eyes Wide Shut.'"

It's not like Kidman didn't know what she was getting into. "I read the script and I thought it was funny," the "Moulin Rouge" star told The Sun. "But I also was turned on by it. I was also sort of hypnotized."

The Sun credited the erotic charge in the upcoming thriller to the work of "Bridgerton" intimacy coordinator Lizzy Talbot, with whom, Dickinson told Variety, he and Kidman would "have a discussion" before "Nicole and I kind of did our own thing with it once we set the parameters of what we were both comfortable with."

Kidman, too, opened up to Variety about filming the erotic thriller, saying that the hardest part of the shoot was "doing it justice and trying to be open and raw and available each day in every which way to explore.

"Because the nature of that film, it was either going to be completely vulnerable and exposed, or you were going to be protected, and then the thing wouldn't connect," Kidman added. She also said that her request to director Halina Reijn came down to, "'Just give us a safe space,' and then, 'Please don't make me look like a fool.'"
