“How AWKWARD is this to watch!” Nicole Kidman made love to her BEST FRIEND’S EX-HUSBAND, and many find it really strange: She had an important ultimatum before filming.

A scene featuring Nicole Kidman and Liev Schreiber in lead roles has sparked a lot of commentary. The intimate scene has intrigued many, given that Schreiber is the ex-husband of one of the Australian star’s best friends. Acting is acting, but an important conversation took place before the filming began.

Nicole Kidman and Liev Schreiber filmed a highly “steamy” sex scene in the Netflix series The Perfect Couple. What surprised viewers was the fact that Kidman is best friends with Naomi Watts, who was in a relationship with Schreiber from 2005 to 2016, and they share two children. Fans speculated that this connection might have created an awkward atmosphere on set, as Nicole and Naomi have been close friends for 30 years.

“I watched the first episode of The Perfect Couple, and suddenly I remembered that Schreiber, who plays Nicole Kidman’s husband, was once with Naomi Watts, one of her closest friends… wow,” commented one viewer. Others wondered about the dynamic between the actors, considering Schreiber’s history with Watts: “We have to talk about how it must have felt for Nicole and Liev, knowing he divorced her best friend,” one fan noted.

However, it was also revealed that Nicole had a conversation with Naomi before filming the series, asking her what she thought about her playing a romantic partner alongside Schreiber. Many fans praised this approach.

“We always check in with each other; we’re best friends,” Naomi said in an interview with Entertainment Weekly during the Toronto International Film Festival, adding: “It was very kind of her to ask.”

While Naomi Watts hasn’t watched the series yet, she expressed her excitement: “I’m desperate to see it because everyone’s raving about it. It just premiered two days ago. I’m really looking forward to it. I saw the trailer. It looks fantastic.”

Naomi Watts is currently married to actor Billy Crudup, while Liev Schreiber is married to Taylor Neisen, with whom he shares a child.
