Paltrow leaves movie for family

Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow has quit The Danish Girl to spend more time with musician husband Chris Martin and their young children.

Hollywood actress Gwyneth Paltrow has pulled out of upcoming movie The Danish Girl to spend more time with musician 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 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, reports imdb.com.

"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'," she said.

The actress' spokesperson added: "Chris and Gwyneth have spent a lot of time apart. This way she gets more family time."

The movie is about the first person to undergo a sex-change operation.
