Gwyneth Paltrow charmed on Glee in her native English. But is she looking to try her luck with a musical series in Spanish?

Not so fast.

The Oscar winner is not in negotiations to star in any Spanish TV series, Paltrow's rep told E! News Tuesday in response to an Hoy Cinema & TV report that she was in talks to join the dramedy Dreamland, about the lives of teachers and students at a dance school.

But even though Paltrow isn't headed to the small screen overseas, don't count her out when it comes to broadening her cultural horizons.

The fluent Spanish speaker is playing Dora Maar, a lover and muse of Pablo Picasso, in the Spanish-language 33 Días, directed by Carlos Saura and costarring Antonio Banderas as the famed painter.

Paltrow previously showed off her language skills in the 2008 docu-series Spain... on the Road Again with her celeb-chef pal Mario Batali and New York Times food writer Mark Bittman.
