Gwyneth slowed down her acting career after 2019, focusing more on her lifestyle brand, Goop. She opened up about this break from acting after her last appearance on the big screen in Avengers: End Game in 2019. She’s been clear about finding fulfillment outside Hollywood, even as she occasionally pops back in for special projects. However, we can look forward to a comeback as Paltrow’s daughter, Apple Martin, convinced her to act alongside Timothee Chalamet. But Paltrow is still considering Goop as her full-time passion.
