Director Halina Reijn addresses the age difference between Nicole Kidman (57) and Harris Dickinson (28) in the erotic thriller 'Babygirl'. Reijn argues that normalized age gaps in films should allow for women to have diverse and empowered relationships.
Age is just a number for Nicole Kidman ’s ' Babygirl ' director, Halina Reijn . During an interview for the erotic thriller , the director defended the age gap between her two lead actors, Kidman, 57, and Harris Dickinson, 28. 'If we see a movie where the male actor is the same age as the female actor, we find that odd. Which is insane. It should completely be normalized that the age gap s switch and that women have different relationships,' Reijn, 49, told W Magazine.
This wasn’t the first time Kidman worked on a movie where an older woman was interested in a younger man. This year, the actress additionally starred in Netflix’s 'A Family Affair,' with Zac Efron, 37, as her love interest. Kidman undoubtedly had a busy year with six 2024 projects, including starring in Netflix's 'The Perfect Couple,' the Paramount+ series 'Lioness' and more.
