Gwyneth Paltrow has pulled out of upcoming movie The Danish Girl to spend more time with husband Chris Martin and their young children.
The Iron Man actress had signed up to play Nicole Kidman's onscreen wife in the movie adaptation of David Ebershoff's novel, after Charlize Theron quit the project last year (09).
The adaptation is about the first person to undergo a sex-change operation.
But producers are now looking for another leading lady to star alongside Kidman after Paltrow decided to bow out of the film to concentrate on her personal life, according to Britain's Mail on Sunday newspaper.
Paltrow reveals. "Some days I feel like everyone in my world has plugged themselves into my kidneys. I'm so tired.
"When I pulled out, he (Martin) said, 'I think you'll be happy with your decision.'"
The actress' spokesperson adds, "Chris and Gwyneth have spent a lot of time apart. This way she gets more family time."
The actress is back on the big screen at the end of the month as she reprises her role as Pepper Potts in Iron Man 2.
