Eva Mendes gave an update on her future in Hollywood. After stepping away from acting 10 years ago to focus on raising her and Ryan Gosling’s two kids, the 50-year-old star appeared on “Good Morning America” Tuesday and was asked what it would take for her to return to the big screen.

These days, her main focus is on her family—she shares two daughters with Gosling—and on writing. In fact, her first children's book, Desi, Mami, and the Never-Ending Worries, just came out in both English and Spanish. Mendes's latest appearance on GMA marks a stop on her press tour for the book.

Eva Mendes admitted during a recent event at 92NY promoting her new picture book 'Desi, Mami, and the Never-Ending Worries' that her husband, Ryan Gosling, is the cook of the house while she excels at cleaning.
