The Perfect Couple fans are left in shock as they realise Nicole Kidman has a VERY racy sex scene with best friend Naomi Watts' ex in Netflix hit

As a dedicated fan of both Nicole Kidman and Liev Schreiber, I must confess that watching their on-screen romance unfold in “The Perfect Couple” has been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride! The intriguing twist of having Nicole, who is best friends with Liev’s real-life ex Naomi Watts, cast as Liev’s wife, adds an extra layer of complexity that keeps me on the edge of my seat.


In just a few short minutes into the Netflix series, “The Perfect Couple,” the seemingly flawless partnership between Nicole Kidman and Liev Schreiber is shown to have cracks appearing in it.

However, viewers are astonished by yet another potential issue in their on-screen love story, as they discover that Nicole and Liev share a close friendship with Naomi Watts, Liev’s actual ex-partner, off the screen.

Naomi, who is 55 years old, and Liev, also 55, have been a couple for 11 years, starting in 2005 and ending their relationship in 2016. Despite not being married, they share two children: Sasha, aged 17, and Kai, who is 15.

Approaching the decade mark since their separation, longtime friend Nicole, now 57, takes on the role of Liev’s spouse in “The Perfect Couple”. Their relationship extends beyond the script, as they share an intensely intimate and suggestive love scene together.

As a devoted fan, I couldn’t help but notice the potential discomfort on set, perhaps stemming from Nicole and Naomi’s close bond off-screen.

‘Watching episode 1 of the perfect couple and suddenly remembered that liev schreiber, who plays nicole’s husband in the show was in a relationship with naomi watts, one of nicole’s closest friends. like whoaaaa,’ one commented on X.

I’m curious about the dynamic between Nicole and Liev on set, considering his recent separation from Naomi, her close friend.

‘Starting Perfect Couple and just wondering the dynamic between Liev Shrieber and Nicole Kidman since that’s is the bff of his ex wife (Naomi Watts),’ agreed another. 

It was noted by some people that Nicole had contacted her dearest friend to ensure it was alright for her to assume the role.

One enthusiastic fan expressed, ‘Nicole inquired from Naomi whether it would be acceptable for her to propose to Liev Schreiber as her partner in The Perfect Couple, and she responded with a resounding “yes!” accompanied by an expression of delight.’

Naomi was the one who disclosed the fact that Nicole had already arrived, seeking information from her regarding the on-screen partnership with Liev.

Naomi, age 55, told Entertainment Weekly during the Toronto International Film Festival that they are always keeping in touch and have a strong friendship.

Adding: ‘That was very kind of her to do that.’

Naomi revealed during the interview she hadn’t yet but plans on watching it.

As a lifestyle enthusiast, I simply can’t wait to immerse myself into this new phenomenon that everyone seems to be buzzing about. It’s barely been two days since its release, and the hype is already palpable!

‘I’m very much looking forward to it. I have seen the trailer. It looks fantastic.’ 

Following her separation with Liev, Naomi later tied the knot with Billy Crudup in June of 2023, having been together for a span of six years.

Naomi and Billy, 56, met in 2017 on the set of their series Gypsy. 

Liev married former pageant queen Taylor Neisen, 32, in July 2023, after dating for six years.

Liev and Taylor welcomed their first child together, daughter Hazel in August 2023.

Susanne Bier, the director of “The Perfect Couple,” has shared insights into why the love scene between Nicole and Liev was intentionally made to feel awkward.

In conversation with Metro.co.uk, Susanne explained that the sequence where Nicole’s character Greer keeps telling Tag (Schreiber) not to touch her, followed by them eventually having sex, is intended to create a tense and awkward viewing experience.

In the creative process, I found myself grappling with a moment that felt somewhat awkward and uneven in terms of consent. It didn’t strike me as equally reciprocal.

Instead of focusing solely on the physical aspects, it served as a means to portray the emotional dynamics occurring between them, rather than simply the physical.

Moreover, it was deliberate. We fully comprehend the situation, yet we’re maintaining some elements under tight control or tension.
