Gwyneth Paltrow can't wait to get back to acting.

The 'Shakespeare in Love' star has had two years off to raise her children - Apple, two, and baby son Moses - but is now itching to get back to work.

She said in an interview with Harper's Bazaar magazine: "For a long time I thought, 'I've done it. I've done what I wanted to do. I'm not interested. I just want to be home with my family.'"

She added: "I had no spark for work, but I have the feeling back. And I'm excited about the prospect. I want to do something kind of fun. I don't want to do anything depressing or mad. I want to do a really great, funny, weird character."

The 33-year-old star, who is married to Coldplay star Chris Martin, appears in upcoming film 'Running With Scissors', which opens in US cinemas on October 11.
