Elizabeth Hurley has revealed she felt ‘liberated’ by saying goodbye to a violent scene in her son Damian’s directorial debut.
The film, titled Strictly Confidential, shows the actress, 58, getting very steamy with another woman.
In the trailer, Elizabeth’s character Lily can be seen being seduced by Natasha, played by young actress Pear Chiravara.
But rather than being embarrassed by the intimacy of the scene, the Austin Powers star explained that Damian, 21, put her at ease on set and described it as ‘relaxing’ to have someone behind the camera ‘looking out’ for her.
Speaking to Access, Elizabeth explained: ‘The things that his script needed me to do weren’t necessarily things that I had always done in films a lot of times.

Strictly Confidential shows the actress getting steamy with another woman, in scenes filmed and directed by her son, a model and budding filmmaker
“But having him there meant I felt safe and looked after, and I knew that in (post-production) he would look after me.”
She added: ‘So actually it’s kind of liberating to work with your family. I might do it again.’
Meanwhile, Damian told Access that while people found him shooting his mum in skimpy clothes ‘controversial’, he didn’t see it that way.
He said: ‘Show business has been a fundamental part of my whole life. So for us it’s not a thing. She takes my photos, I take hers.’
The mystery drama follows Mia, played by CBBC star Georgia Lock, as she is drawn into a ‘world of sex, duplicity and betrayal’ as she tries to unravel the mystery surrounding her best friend Rebecca’s suicide.
The trailer shows Mia returning to the exotic Caribbean island where Rebecca died, and along with uncovering old passions, vows to learn the truth about her friend’s death.
This is not the first time that Elizabeth has appeared in one of her son’s projects. She also flew out to Saint Kitts and Nevis for his short film, The Boy on the Beach.
In 2018, she revealed that the secret photographer behind her seemingly endless stream of bikini Instagram posts was actually her only son.

She added that working with the family was ‘liberating’ and she would consider it again, while he said he did not find their relationship ‘controversial’ as some people have suggested.
Damian revealed that his mother Elizabeth had ‘promised’ to star in his first picture years ago and when it was greenlit she ‘dropped everything’ to take part
Damian’s shadow is even visible in some of the photos, where she frolics on the beach in a two-piece swimsuit.
She made the revelation after uploading a series of sizzling holiday snaps of herself braless and in a bikini for Valentine’s Day.
The actress, who shot to fame aged 29 with her Estee Lauder cosmetics campaign, stunned her 833,000 followers with the suggestive pictures, but some were unsure how to take her confession, with several branding the relationship ‘weird’.
According to The Sun, Elizabeth said: ‘(Damian) definitely takes some, but I have other friends that I can torture for some too.’
Strictly Confidential is released in theaters and on Prime Video on April 5.
