Gwyneth Kate Paltrow was born on September 27, 1972, in Los Angeles, California. After living in Los Angeles, Paltrow moved with her family to New York at age 11. As she grew up, Paltrow’s burgeoning beauty and developing acting talent began to win her small film roles, beginning with Shout and Hook in 1991. After a well-received spot opposite her mother on the television miniseries Cruel Doubt (1992), Paltrow won a string of roles in films like Malice (1993), co-starring Nicole Kidman(Nicole Kidman Height and Weight Stats) and Alec Baldwin, Flesh and Bone (1993), and Jefferson in Paris (1995). In 1995, Paltrow appeared in the controversial film Se7en. She began to win starring roles in The Pallbearer (1996), Emma (1996), Great Expectations (1998) and A Perfect Murder (1998). In 1999, Paltrow starred with Matt Damon in director Anthony Minghella’s lush production of The Talented Mr. Ripley. 

In 2008, Paltrow joined the ranks of A-listers that played in films based off of comics, as she joined the cast of Iron Man as Pepper Potts. The film is also arguably the first in the comic book genre to launch the series of other superhero films in the Marvel universe that followed—Thor (2011), Captain America (2011) and The Avengers (2012).
