Naomi Watts recently returned Down Under to begin filming scenes for her new film Penguin Bloom.
And the New York-based star, 50, embraced her role as the film's heroine on Tuesday as she filmed intimate romance scenes with her co-star, The Walking Dead's Andrew Lincoln, 45, at Sydney's Palm Beach.
Clad in a linen button-up shirt and khaki cargo pants, the blonde star was seen exchanging tender kisses with the British hunk as they sat on a ledge overlooking the ocean.

Naomi plays the role of Sam Bloom, a woman paralised by the waist down, and was seen propped up on a striped chair during the intimate scene.
One one stage, she was seen cosying up to Andrew while gazing into his eyes, before turning to gaze wistfully into the distance.
Muscle-bound Andrew plays Naomi's on-screen photographer husband Cameron, and looked typically handsome in a maroon skivvy, blue jeans and black sneakers.

Direction please! In between takes, the cast-members could be seen taking directions from a group of show-runners and camera technicians
Handy: Also on set were several crew-members holding UV-blocking umbrellas from Bunnings Warehouse, presumably to shield the film's A-list stars from the glare
