Rachel Weisz gets intimate with Rachel McAdams in a steamy bedroom scenes from film Disobedience
Rachel Weisz and Rachel McAdams take part in a steamy bedroom romp in their new film Disobedience.
In the movie, which is out later this year, the stars play lovers, who grew up in an extremely conservative Orthodox Jewish community.
Rachel’s character Ronit was exiled to New York by her rabbi father after their relationship was discovered.
But she returns home after his death and rekindles the previously forbidden romance with Esti (played by Rachel) who is now married.
Rachel, 48, has described the experience of sharing intimate scenes with another woman as "lovely".
She explained: "I'm always spending time with men in fictions, so for me it was just really unusual and lovely. As a woman, you're often the object of the man's desire, or he's the object of yours, but I felt like there was something just so different about the female gaze."

Her co-star , 39, also admitted it was a completely different experience for her.
She added: "Energetically, it was very different. We had great communication, and there was a very vulnerable, open, gentle, intelligent feeling to everything. We talked about the safety of it as well, doing a love scene.
“That was a very different love scene than I've ever done before, and it was the most kind of raw and vulnerable love-making scene I've ever done. And yet at the same time, I felt incredibly safe and cared for and free to explore."
The stars worked very closely with their director Seabastián Lelio to choreograph the scene and despite it being racy, all three were in agreement that there would be no nudity as it was not essential to the story.
