Geoffrey Rush’s wild on-screen sex life

GEOFFREY Rush is not your typical leading man but the Oscar winner boasts he can match any of Hollywood’s hottest men when it comes to onscreen romps.

At 60, Rush’s latest role sees the actor in a “rambunctious” sex scene with much younger actress Alexandra Schepisi, adding to his list of onscreen conquests that include Charlize Theron (The Life and Death of Peter Sellers), Kate Winslet (Quills) and Salma Hayek (Frida).

Rush was mildly affronted when The Sunday Telegraph expressed surprise at his latest fully-naked sex scenes – featuring shots of his bare bottom – for upcoming film The Eye Of The Storm.

“I have had sex scenes with Charlize Theron and Salma Hayek you know,” Rush said. “Alex Schepisi was just another pelt.” But he did admit his scenes were slightly more complicated because this Alexandra was the boss’s daughter.

Acclaimed director Fred Schepisi helmed the film, which will represent Australia at the Toronto Film Festival later this year and is in cinemas from September. The movie includes several love-making scenes between Rush and Alexandra.

“It’s particularly awkward (sex scenes) when the beautiful young actress that you’re having rambunctious sex with, the father is the director. But all that was fine because it is kind of warts and all. There are sort of subtle layerings and gradings to those things that stop it feeling like it has to be a scene about actorial vanity.”

Rush won an Academy Award for the 1996 film, Shine, and went on to become one of few to have accomplished success in both independent and commercial blockbusters, something he concedes is good for his ego.

“It doesn’t hurt in the back of your own mind that somewhere on your repertoire, the majority of the work I would like to think are fairly carefully chosen projects that are satisfying because of their creative qualities, sometimes it doesn’t hurt to think that it’s nice to know you’ve got one or two hits out there that the crowd loves, the holiday season energy of what you are contributing to. It’s a satisfying balance.”
