Nicole Kidman is sparking controversy with her latest role in the erotic thriller “Babygirl.” The film, featuring Kidman as a high-powered CEO in a steamy affair with her much younger intern, Samuel (played by Harris Dickinson), has ignited a lively online debate. A sneak peek of a sultry pool scene between Kidman and Dickinson has fueled the conversation, with fans sharing mixed reactions. Some humorously protect their partners from Kidman, while others joke about a trend of older women with younger men in Hollywood.

Despite the buzz, Kidman, 57, described the role as her most exposing yet. She admitted to feeling emotionally drained by the intense scenes, which were carefully choreographed with intimacy coordinators. Kidman, who has previously tackled daring roles, faces both admiration and critique, highlighting the ongoing discussion about age and on-screen relationships.
