Nicole Kidman's Babygirl Film Causes A stir

Nicole Kidman’s latest film, Babygirl, caused a stir at the Westpac OpenAir Sydney cinema as multiple viewers walked out during an advance screening. The movie stars Kidman as Romy — a married boss who embarks on an affair with her younger intern Samuel (played by Harris Dickinson), and this left many cinemagoers reeling.

Although Babygirl has already premiered in the US and UK, the screening left several viewers uncomfortable. Hence, many left the theater about 45 minutes in. According to Australian reporters, older couples made up a large number of those boycotting Babygirl.

Another frustrated fan on X, complained that Babygirl was insufferable so she had to walk out mid-movie.” However, not all reactions were negative as fans defended the film, praising its steamy and bold take on the romance genre. “I loved Babygirl…Nicole Kidman and Harris Dickinson had such great chemistry,” a supportive user gushed.

Nicole Kidman shared how she felt about her role in ‘Babygirl’

Nicole Kidman recently opened up about taking on her most erotic role yet in Babygirl. She admitted that the film’s female-centered perspective attracted her to the project, as it flipped the typical narrative of similar films from the 90s. Kidman added that she wasn’t at all hesitant about filming the intimate scenes.

The 57-year-old was eager to push herself beyond her comfort zone and support women like Director Halina Reijn, who admitted that she had an experience similar to one of the movie scenes. She was in her thirties when a much younger Belgian actor showed interest in her.
