We miss you on the big screen, Gwyneth Paltrow!

Though Gwyneth made her acting debut in the TV film High in 1989, her first breakout role was in the 1996 period piece, Emma. A few years later, she starred in Shakespeare in Love, which scored Gwyneth an Oscar for Best Actress — how cool!

Interestingly, Gwyneth recently admitted she turned down a few roles in crazy-successful movies like Boogie Nights and Titanic. “[I can’t] change the past,” she told radio host Howard Stern in 2015. “I know that the story is that I turned [down Titanic]. I think I was really in contention for it — I was one of the last two.”

“I look back at the choices I’ve made and think, ‘Why the hell did I say yes to that? And no to that?'” she continued. “And you know, you look at the big picture and think: There’s a universal lesson here. What good is it to hold onto roles?”
