Elizabeth Hurley trusted her son to capture her best angles while filming racy sex scenes in her latest movie, “Strictly Confidential.”

Hurley, 58, admitted she felt “safe and cared for” with her son Damian, 21, guiding her through scenes she wasn't necessarily used to as an actress.

Damian made his directorial debut with the erotic thriller that focused on a tormented young woman who becomes obsessed with the death of her best friend.

“I was 20 when we wrote it,” Damian told Access Hollywood. “We went to the Caribbean and made it in 18 days – it was terrifying.”

“He always said, 'If I ever get to make a real movie, will you be in it?' And I said, 'Of course, I'll definitely be in your first movie,'” Elizabeth said.

The steamy, heavy trailer released in February showed Hurley kissing co-star Pear Chiravara during a steamy sex scene.

Damian, known for capturing his mother's bikini photos for social media, admitted that seeing his mother's body is no big deal.

“People find this really controversial,” he said. “We're in business. Showbiz has been a huge part of my entire life, so for us, it's just not a thing. It's just part of the business. She takes my photos, I take hers.

“But I'm also relaxed in front of him,” Elizabeth said. “He takes care of me. I have to be photographed in a bikini because he is one of my businesses. Who likes to be photographed in a bikini? Nobody.

“It's just relaxing to know that there's someone behind the camera looking out for you, which was the same in this movie in a way, because you know that the things that his script needed me to do weren't necessarily things that I had always done.” “I've made films many times before, but having him there meant I felt safe and cared for.”

She added: “I knew that in production, in post-production, I knew that he would take care of me. So, actually, it's kind of liberating to work with your family. Maybe I'll do it again.”

Damian noted that their work together on the big screen would be “the first of many.”

“We feel like we're in our comfort zone,” he added.
