Big Little Lies' Alexander Skarsgård, 42, has spoken candidly about what it was like to film violent domestic abuse scenes with his on-screen wife Nicole Kidman, 51.
Speaking to KIIS FM's Kyle And Jackie O Show on Monday, Alexander admitted that he felt physically and mentally drained after the controversial scenes- many of which were filmed while Nicole's husband Keith Urban watched on from the wings.
'Those scenes were obviously quite intense to shoot,' he said, before praising Nicole for her incredible resilience and acting prowess.
