No one can call Eva Mendes a prude. In the new drama We Own the Night, she steams it up as Amada Juarez, the leather bustier–wearing girlfriend of nightclub owner Bobby Green (Joaquin Phoenix).

Although the actress has done nude scenes, this film contains her first sex scene. The Miami native, 32 (whose boyfriend is producer George Augusto), dishes to Us.

Q: How was filming the sex scene with Joaquin?:
The truth is, it’s very technical when you shoot it. The freak-out comes when you’re sitting in the theater going, “That’s my boob. Oh, my God!”

Q: You’ve also kissed Will Smith and Denzel Washington on screen. Who was the best kisser?:
All of them, though I regret not kissing Johnny Depp for longer [in 2003’s Once Upon a Time in Mexico]. I was so intimidated by him. It was the first time I had worked with an actor who I had crushed on as a little girl.

Q: What role did you want and not get?:
I really wanted Mr. & Mrs. Smith. I was 10 minutes away from auditioning when my agent left me a message telling me the part had been offered to Angelina Jolie. I got really crazy, ignored it and auditioned anyway. I really thought I had a chance!

Q: What about those recent pregnancy rumors?:
I had just finished a pasta meal and my tummy was hanging out. Then suddenly it was all over the Internet: baby bump. Eva’s pregnant! And they said I was coming out of a prenatal yoga class — I don’t even go to regular yoga!
