Stuck in the Middle

He takes on two of the sexiest women the silver screen has ever seen in "Catwoman." And when you're working with Halle Berry in black leather and a femme fatale Sharon Stone, co-star Benjamin Bratt says you better bring your A-game.

"You can come to the set and not be ready for all they're going to throw at you because it's always considerable," Bratt admitted.

Halle says she trained for several hours a day to master those catlike moves. "And then I learned a Brazilian form of marital arts... which was one of the hardest things I've ever tried to take on," Berry told us.

But the training couldn't prepare Benjamin for his sexy love scene with Halle. "It's really technical in nature," Bratt said. "You have to be aware of the lights and where the camera is and where the other person's body parts are."

Off screen, Ben saves all his love scenes for wife Talisa Soto, mother of his baby girl, Sofia. "I turned 40 in December. It's not like there's a button you push and all of a sudden you're a different person," Bratt explained. "But I have a kind of peace now I never had before. A lot of that comes from the family I have now. I'm married to an amazing woman and I have a beautiful, wonderful, unique child that brings me the greatest joy I've ever known."
