Actor: Gwyneth Paltrow

Gwyneth Paltrow won Best Actress for Shakespeare in Love, a result that has been argued about ever since given the competition and the Weinstein campaign behind it.

Sliding Doors, The Royal Tenenbaums and Se7en show the range, and The Talented Mr Ripley gives her the most interesting part.

She played Pepper Potts across the Marvel films while progressively withdrawing from acting to run Goop, and was among the first women to speak publicly about Harvey Weinstein’s conduct.

Shane Black's buddy-comedy direction, Downey's strongest character work, and the Mandarin twist Marvel spent eight years correcting. The 5 reflects honest evaluation of the Phase Two opening film and one of the more divisive entries in the MCU's first decade.
