The Oscar-winning actress marked her 50th birthday by releasing photos from her Goldfinger-inspired shoot via her Goop website.
In the snaps, captured by photographer Andrew Yee, Gwyneth poses naked with half of her body painted gold.
Reflecting on the "Goldfinger-meets-2022" shoot, she said, "All I know is that they're painting me gold and that I have to be naked... I feel so good turning 50, and this is about expressing that sense of energy and optimism that I'm experiencing. It's more about the female gaze and just a sense of fun."
