Director Damian Hurley Opens Up About Directing His Mother, Liz Hurley, in a Lesbian Sex Scene
Renowned filmmaker Damian Hurley, 21, recently made headlines for directing his mother, the iconic British actress and model Liz Hurley, in a daring lesbian sex scene for their upcoming thriller film, “Strictly Confidential.” In a candid interview with The Sunday Times, Damian shared his experience and thoughts on the controversial scene, revealing surprising insights into their unique mother-son dynamic.
Despite the provocative nature of the scene, Damian admitted that directing his mother in such intimate moments felt surprisingly normal to him. He remarked, “I hate to say that it felt totally normal. I don’t know what that says about us.” This candid statement sheds light on their close relationship and comfort level with each other, even in unconventional circumstances.
In discussing the scene further, Damian revealed that he had conversations with friends who also come from industry families, sharing similar experiences of navigating unusual situations that may seem out of the ordinary to outsiders. He explained, “They say exactly the same thing: that things to outsiders that may seem totally strange and extraordinary, for us we’ll just have grown up with in everyday life.” This perspective offers a glimpse into the unique reality of growing up in show business families.
Expressing pride in his mother’s willingness to take on a bold role in his debut feature film, Damian praised Liz for embracing the character’s sensuality at this stage in her career. He highlighted the evolving perceptions of age and maturity in the entertainment industry, noting that traditional expectations no longer hold sway in today’s changing landscape.
Describing their relationship as akin to siblings, Damian emphasized the bond he shares with his mother, attributing it to their shared experiences and upbringing. The absence of his father, Steve Bing, who passed away in 2020, further strengthened their connection and reliance on each other for support and companionship.
In “Strictly Confidential,” Liz stars alongside former “Emmerdale” actor Max Parker, known for his role as Luke Posner on the popular ITV soap opera. The film promises to captivate audiences with its blend of seduction, betrayal, and mystery, offering a tantalizing glimpse into a world filled with intrigue and danger.
Liz’s participation in the project fulfills a promise she made to Damian when he was just eight years old, committing to be part of his first feature film whenever the opportunity arose. This collaboration showcases their shared passion for storytelling and creative expression, solidifying their bond as family and artistic collaborators.
“Strictly Confidential” is scheduled for release on April 5 in select cinemas and will also be available on various streaming platforms, including Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV. The film’s bold narrative and compelling performances are poised to make a lasting impact on audiences, challenging conventions and pushing boundaries in the realm of modern cinema.
In conclusion, Damian Hurley’s candid reflections on directing his mother in a lesbian sex scene offer a unique perspective on family dynamics in the entertainment industry. Their shared experience on set and creative collaboration underscore the power of storytelling to bridge personal relationships and transcend societal norms. As “Strictly Confidential” prepares to make its debut, audiences can anticipate a thought-provoking and visually stunning cinematic experience that pushes the boundaries of conventional filmmaking.
