Early life and education[edit]

Paltrow was born in Los AngelesCalifornia, the daughter of actress Blythe Danner and film producer/director Bruce Paltrow. Her father was Jewish and her mother is from a Christian background, and Paltrow was raised with "both Jewish and Christian holidays" (her brother had a Bar Mitzvah ceremony).[9][10][11] Her father's Ashkenazi family immigrated from Belarus[12] and Poland,[13] while her mother has Pennsylvania Dutch (German), and some white Barbadian (English), ancestry.[14][15][16] Paltrow's paternal great-great-grandfather, whose surname was "Paltrowicz," was a rabbi in Nowogród, Poland.[17] Paltrow has a younger brother, Jake Paltrow, and is a half-cousin of actress Katherine Moennig (through her mother), and a second cousin of former U.S. CongresswomanGabrielle Giffords (AZ-08) (through her father).[18] Her uncle is opera singer and actor Harry Danner.
Paltrow was raised in Santa Monica, where she attended Crossroads School before enrolling in the Spence School, a private girls' school in New York City.[19] Later, she briefly studied anthropology at the University of California, Santa Barbara, before dropping out to act.[20] She is an "adopted daughter" of Talavera de la Reina (Spain), where at 15 she spent a year as an exchange student and learned to speak Spanish.[21][22][23]

Career[edit]

1989–95: Early acting work[edit]

Her acting debut was in High (1989), a TV film her father directed, and after spending several summers watching her mother perform at the Williamstown Theatre Festival in Massachusetts, Paltrow made her professional stage debut there in 1990.[24] Her film debut followed with Shout (1991), starring John Travolta; and she was cast by Steven Spielberg in his film Hook (1991) as the young Wendy Darling.[24]
Paltrow's next roles were in the made-for-television movies Cruel Doubt (1992) and Deadly Relations (1993). Her first plum feature film role was in the noir drama Flesh and Bone (1993) as the much-younger girlfriend of James Caan. In 1995, she played Brad Pitt's wife in the hit thriller Se7en. Her performance earned her a Satellite Award nomination. Also in 1995, she appeared in Moonlight and Valentino and Jefferson in Paris.[25][26]

1996–2001: Breakthrough and film stardom[edit]

In 1996, Paltrow played the title character in Emma to critical acclaim, particularly in the United Kingdom, where her perfection of the English accent was appreciated. She had leading roles in several films throughout 1998, including Sliding Doors and the adaptation of the Charles Dickens novel Great Expectations with Ethan HawkeRobert De NiroAnne Bancroft and Chris Cooper. She also appeared in two thrillers, Hush, opposite Jessica Lange, and A Perfect Murder, inspired by Alfred Hitchcock's 1954 film, Dial M for Murder. In the latter film, Paltrow starred opposite Michael Douglas, playing Emily Taylor, who was based on Grace Kelly's character from the original film, though the film was met with mixed reviews. She was also considered for the role of Rose DeWitt Bukater in the 1997 film Titanic.[27]
In 1998, Paltrow starred in Shakespeare in Love, portraying the fictional lover of William Shakespeare, played by Joseph Fiennes. The film earned US$289 million in box office receipts, and Paltrow gained critical acclaim for her portrayal.Entertainment Weekly commented, "Best of all is Gwyneth Paltrow, who, at long last, has a movie to star in that's as radiant as she is."[28] The New York Times summed up her performance as Viola thus: "Gwyneth Paltrow, in her first great, fully realized starring performance, makes a heroine so breathtaking that she seems utterly plausible as the playwright's guiding light."[29]
The award-winning Shakespeare in Love[30][31] earned Paltrow the award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role from the Screen Actors Guild,[32] the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress[32] and the Academy Award for Best Actress, among other honors.[31] Her Pink Ralph Lauren dress worn at the 71st Academy Awards in collecting her Oscar was extremely popular and was credited for bringing pink back into fashion.[33]
In 1999, Paltrow co-starred alongside Jude LawMatt Damon and Cate Blanchett in The Talented Mr. Ripley, which earned $80 million domestically and received positive reviews.[34] She showcased her singing ability in 2000's Duets, which was directed by her father and co-starred singer Huey Lewis. The same year, Paltrow co-starred with Ben Affleck in the romantic drama Bounce as Abby Janello.

2002–07: Career slowdown[edit]

Since the Oscar for Shakespeare in Love, Paltrow's film career has been less noteworthy and critical acclaim has waned.[35] She said she was unequipped for the pressure, leading to several bad movie choices,[36] agreeing with peers who believe the win is, in some ways, a curse.[37] During this time, Paltrow rarely appeared in films, having taken a hiatus to raise her two children.[19] In The Guardian, she said she divided her career into movies for love and films for money: The Royal TenenbaumsProof, and Sylvia fell into the former category, while she did View from the Top and Shallow Hal for the latter.[23]
In 2004, she appeared in the science-fiction film Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow opposite Jude Law. The same year, she was recognized as an outstanding woman in entertainment by Women in Film Los Angeles with theCrystal Award.[38] In 2005, she appeared in the film Proof as the depressed daughter of a brilliant, eccentric mathematician. The movie is based on the play of the same name, in which Paltrow also played the same character at London's Donmar Warehouse in 2002. For her performance Paltrow earned her second Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama. In 2006, she had small roles in Running With Scissors and Infamous, in which she sang Cole Porter's "What Is This Thing Called Love?".

2008–present: Iron Man and Glee[edit]

In 2008, she appeared in the superhero film Iron Man as Pepper PottsTony Stark's personal assistant, closest friend, and budding love interest.[39] Iron Man was Paltrow's highest-grossing film to date, earning more than $585,000,000 worldwide,[40] until she reprised her role as Potts in Joss Whedon's 2012 epic, The Avengers, which grossed more than $1 billion worldwide.[41] Paltrow said she was hesitant to appear in a big-budget project but she was won over by Robert Downey, Jr., the film's lead, and director Jon Favreau. She recalled a conversation with Downey, saying:[42]

Paltrow at a ceremony for receiving herHollywood Walk of Famestar, December 2010
Robert called me and he said, "This is gonna be fun, and this is gonna be good." And then he said to me, "Don't you want to be in a movie that people see?" And I was like, "Whoa! What would that feel like?" And he's right. Moviemaking is not supposed to be a masturbatory exercise; it's supposed to be shared by other people.
In 2010, Paltrow reprised her role in the sequel to Iron Man, Iron Man 2. Later in 2010, she appeared in the musical Country Strong and recorded the song Country Strong for the film's soundtrack.[43] The song was released to country radio in August 2010.[44] At the 83rd Academy Awards, Paltrow performed another song from the movie, "Coming Home," which was nominated for Best Original Song.[45]

Personal life[edit]


Paltrow at the Iron Man 3French premiere in April 2013
At the age of 24, Paltrow was engaged to actor Brad Pitt, whom she dated from 1994 to 1997.[69] The engagement was called off, according to Paltrow, because she was not ready for marriage, and she later felt responsible for hurting Pitt since she was "such a mess" during that time in her life.[70] Paltrow has since said that, as this was her first high-profile relationship with another celebrity, it taught her the need for public discretion about her romantic life; she told Biography magazine, "I said things about being in a relationship [with Brad Pitt] that felt wrong to me even as I was saying them."[71]
Paltrow had an on-off three-year relationship with actor Ben Affleck from 1997 to late 2000.[72] They first broke up in early 1999 but, soon after their breakup, Paltrow managed to persuade Affleck to star in the film Bounce with her;[73]during the making of the film, which was shot in mid-1999, the couple started dating again and eventually broke up in October 2000.[72]
In October 2002, Paltrow met Chris Martin of the British rock group Coldplay backstage three weeks after the death of her father, Bruce Paltrow. They married on December 5, 2003, in a ceremony at a hotel in Southern California.[74]Paltrow and Martin have two children together: daughter Apple Blythe Alison Martin (b. 2004) and son Moses Bruce Anthony Martin (b. 2006).[75] Paltrow explained Apple's unusual first name on Oprah, saying: "It sounded so sweet and it conjured such a lovely picture for me – you know, apples are so sweet and they're wholesome and it's biblical – and I just thought it sounded so lovely and ... clean! And I just thought, 'Perfect!'."[76] She explained her son's first name came from the song, "Moses", that her husband wrote for her before their wedding.[75] Paltrow's father came from a long line of influential Eastern European rabbis, and that inspired Paltrow to raise her daughter and son in a Jewish environment.[77][78] Paltrow has stated, "if you could see how much food I make – I am the original Jewish mother".[79] Paltrow cut down on work after becoming a mother.[80] She also suffered from postpartum depression after the 2006 birth of her son.[81] In March 2014, Paltrow announced that she and Martin had separated after ten years of marriage, describing the process as "conscious uncoupling".[6][82][83] In April 2015, Paltrow filed for divorce from Chris Martin.[84]
