Eva Mendes says she doesn't know if she will return to acting: 'I kind of felt like I did it'

Her last movie role was in 2014.

Eva Mendes might not ever return to acting.

Good Morning America's George Stephanopoulos asked Mendes in an interview Tuesday if she was thinking of getting back to the profession after having taken time off to help raise her children. Mendes and partner Ryan Gosling share two daughters, Esmerelda, 10, and 8-year-old Amada.

"I don't know. If there — you know — if there's interesting roles," she said, explaining, "I kinda felt like I did it, ya know? I was like, I just worked with Ryan Gosling, who's, like, the best. And I had such a — I don't know — it was such a high off my career to work with him and what we created together that I was like, 'This is a good time to just Seinfeld it and just walk out.' So, who knows?"

Aside from roles in the Bluey franchise for children, Mendes hasn't appeared in movies for a decade, when she costarred in Lost River, a thriller Gosling wrote and directed. She had met the Barbie actor while making 2012 crime drama The Place Beyond the Pines, in which they portrayed as a couple.

Mendes was "so lucky" to have this time with her children, she said on the Today show in March.

Mendes was on GMA to promote her first picture book for children, the new Desi, Mami, and the Never-Ending Worries.

"It's a buddy story about this little girl and her brain," the Other Guys actress said. "And Desi has these never-ending worries — I have them as well — and she, she tries to work with her brain to kind of like, you know, make sure it's not being a bully to her by sending all these negative thoughts her way and that it's being like a BFF to her. And so it's about that relationship."

Mendes said she wants to open up dialogue and promote conversation about mental health.
