At 40, Catherine Zeta-Jones has no intention of putting her sexy screen siren days behind her.
In her upcoming movie The Rebound, she strips down to her bra as she gets to know her toyboy lover on the sofa.
But the couple's moment of passion is interrupted when her eight-year-old son wakes up and walks into the sitting room.

Steamy: Catherine Zeta-Jones' character Sandy romps with her toyboy lover Aram (Justin Bartha) on the sofa in The Rebound
In the romantic comedy, Zeta-Jones plays newly-single mother Sandy, who moves with her two children, Frank Jnr and Sadie, to New York to start a new life after finding out her husband is having an affair.
After a string of disastrous dates with men her own age, Sandy finds herself attracted to Aram, her children's 25-year-old babysitter, played by The Hangover star Justin Bartha.
Following a night out at a hip-hop nightclub, they return to her Manhattan apartment, where their steamy romp on the settee comes to an abrupt end.

May to December: Sandy and Aram get to know each other better after their first date
A bleary-eyed Frank, played by Andrew Cherry, walks in and is horrified to see his mother and babysitter getting to know eachother a little too well.
Aram jumps up and falls to the ground before the couple face the little boy's interrogation.
After declaring, 'That's gross!', Frank asks if Aram is staying the night and then reminds him to pick up his trousers from the floor before he goes.
The film is written and directed by Bart Freundlich - who has a ten-year age gap with his actress wife Julianne Moore.
What's going on?: Frank Jnr is stunned to see his mother and babysitter in a state of undress
Caught unaware: Sandy tries to explain her way out of the embarrassing situation
In the movie trailer, a voiceover suggests 'sometimes you just need to sleep with a 25-year-old'.
Ahead of her 40th birthday last month, Miss Zeta-Jones said she knew the sexier roles she has been offered in the past would start to dwindle.
While she does play a mother-of-two in her new movie, her May to December romance means she still has a sex symbol status on screen.
She said last year: 'I think it's a natural progression. I'm 38 years old and I'm going to play more mums than sex symbols.
Lost for words: Sandy struggles to explain herself
'That's a gradual thing for me because I'm too old to play younger characters.'
Zeta-Jones hit the 40 milestone on September 25 - the same day her husband turned 65.
But despite this, Miss Zeta-Jones said the passing of the years did not trouble her.
She said: 'I feel much younger than I am. When you are 20, 40 looks really old. When I was nearing 30 that seemed like a major milestone.'
