Washington, Feb 6 (ANI): Oscar winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow has returned to acting, to become a more interesting mother to her kids and will now be seen opposite Robert Downey Jr in the film 'Iron Man'.

The 'Shakespeare in Love' actress, who took a break from acting after the birth of her second child Moses last year, has said that she initially wanted to commit to being home and that she decided to return to films, for she thought that she must pursue a 'passion for something besides her family'.
