Eyes Wide Shut
The Australian actress really cemented a name for herself in Tinsel Town with our first pick, Eyes Wide Shut, which she starred in alongside then-husband Tom Cruise. In the erotic film, Nicole has fantasies about another man, which sends Tom’s character on a mission to have a spicy encounter himself. Watch the trailer (below):
Babygirl
While Eyes Wide Shut catapulted Nicole into stardom at the beginning of her career, Babygirl has been her most recent sexy flick. In the film, she plays an older CEO who risks her entire career — and family life — for an affair with a much-younger intern played by Harris Dickinson. Watch the trailer (below):
Earlier this year, Nicole opened up about the synchronicities between Eyes Wide Shut and Babygirl, and how together they sum up her career. She told Vogue:
“One ends with the word f**k and the other one ends with the actual action. And there is my career!”
The Paperboy
In The Paperboy, Nicole got to live out the fantasy of SO many thirsty film fans who have a soft spot for rock-hard abs: she got to have at it with Zac Efron! LOLz! In the film, she plays a trailer-trash blonde bombshell who strikes up a relationship with a journalist (played by Efron) investigating her convict pen pal (played by John Cusack). She ALSO has a sex scene with the latter the flick… a violent sex scene at that. Watch the trailer (below):
A Family Affair
When you’re an accomplished actress on the level of Nicole, you’re not limited to just ONE saucy on-screen opportunity with Zac Efron. Because In A Family Affair, she had her second! In the 2024 film, Nicole’s character kicks off an unexpected romance with her daughter (played by Joey King)’s prick Hollywood boss (played by Efron). And all the hilariousness with that dynamic ensues! Watch the trailer (below):
Moulin Rouge
Closing our list is Nicole’s 2001 film Moulin Rouge, in which she plays a 19th century cabaret singer at the titular nightclub. There, she falls in love with a poet (played by Ewan McGregor), but the pair are forced to keep their romance a secret as she’s already promised her hand to a wealthy Duke (played by Richard Roxburgh). Steamy! Watch the trailer (below):
