Jennifer Garner is back to the work grind.
After taking a considerable amount of time to focus on raising her three children - Violet, 9, Seraphina, 6, and Samuel, 2 - the 42-year-old actress is now prioritizing her career once again.
"I've been home for a long time. It's my turn and I'm going to go to work this spring. I think I'll work the spring and summer, maybe the fall too, as long as some of it's at home. I don't think my deals are done yet so I can't say, but yeah, I'm about to go to work," Garner told reporters at the March 1 Beverly Hills event while promoting her new movie "Danny Collins."
Garner has been a support system for husband Ben Affleck and has allowed him to pursue big acting gigs within the past several years, his latest box office success being "Gone Girl," a film that also starred Rosamund Pike.
The Golden Globe-winning actress has only taken smaller parts in recent years due to parenting, and in 2013 she only played a part in one movie: "Dallas Buyers Club." Garner has appeared in "Draft Day," "Men, Women & Children" and "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day" this past year.
"I really choose by what I like," Garner said when discussing the roles she enjoys playing. "I have had the best luck with costars, I'm just saying. And I've only married a couple of them," she joked, referring to Affleck, whom she met on the set of the movie "Pearl Harbor" in 2001.
The celebrity couple finds the time to make it work and the two offer one another encouragement to take on new roles and projects, no matter when the opportunity arises, according to Us Weekly.
"Ben is super busy and I'm super happy for him. I chose to stay home this year and just said, 'Go for it babe. Do it all. Do Gone Girl, do Batman, do The Accountant. Do everything.' I want that for him and I'm happy for him. And he says the same to me. Except that he's really busy. But he understands that when I really have to do it, we figure it out."
Garner revealed that she never spends more than 4-5 days away from her children when working on a new film.
"I sit down at the beginning of the movie and say to the people making the schedule, 'Let's look at this.' Then I figure out where I'm going to take the kid and when I can get home."
