Nicole Kidman gets sexy in A24 erotic thriller

A24 has released the trailer for its new erotic thriller Babygirl, which premiered in competition at the 81st Venice Film Festival on August 30th and will be released in cinemas nationwide on A24's Christmas Day. Nicole Kidman won the best actress award in Venice for her performance in the film.

According to the official logline, the film follows Kidman as a top executive who “risks her career and family when she begins a torrid affair with her much younger intern (Harris Dickinson).” The supporting cast includes Antonio Banderas, Sophie Wilde, Esther McGregor, Victor Slezak, Vaughan Reilly and Leslie Silva.

“We all carry a little black box full of taboo fantasies that we might never share with anyone. “I am fascinated by the duality of human nature, and this film is an attempt to shine a light, without judgment, on the opposing forces that make up our personalities,” said writer and director Halina Reijn in Venice. “For me, feminism is the freedom to study a woman’s vulnerability, love, shame, anger and the inner beast.”

The film marks the third collaboration between Reijn and A24, who released her directorial debut “Instinct” in 2019 and her follow-up “Bodies Bodies Bodies” in 2022. Rejin acts as screenwriter and producer as well as director. Executive producers include Christine D'Souza Gelb, Erika Hampson and Zach Nutman. David Hinojosa and Julia Oh produce.
