Gwyneth Paltrow has done it all — from winning an Oscar as Best Actress for Shakespeare in Love to appearing in seven (gasp) Marvel films. Most new-gen fans would, of course, easily recall her for the second bit, as Pepper Potts in MCU.
You could do a double take, therefore, on knowing what Gwyneth had to say in a recent interview. The actress, who played Pepper Potts in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, revealed that she was shocked to learn that she had actually starred in seven different Marvel films — without even realizing that she was also part of Spider-Man: Homecoming!
