Sandra Bullock has appeared in dozens of films that both audiences and critics remember as being excellent works of art, but even the Oscar winner has a few sips in his past. During a junket to promote her new film The lost citya TooFab the reporter asked Bullock and co-star Daniel Radcliffe if there was a film that any of them have starred in that they were once embarrassed about but eventually came to after fans embraced the film.
“I have one that no one came around to and I’m still embarrassed that I was in. It’s called Speed 2. Has been very loud about it, “Bullock replied. “Makes no sense. Slow boat. Going slowly towards an island.” The interviewer replied, “I want to tell you, I enjoyed that movie.” Bullock replied, “Were you tall? It’s one I wish I had not done, and there were no fans I know except you. “
Radcliffe tried to make his co-star feel a little better by commenting: “I feel like he had a kind of cult love too,” but Bullock was not deterred. “Very quiet! Like five people. Him and the other four 12-year-olds who saw the slow boat sailing towards the small island.”
Speed 2: Cruise control was released in 1997, three years after the original. The first Velocity was a critical and commercial success, and it helped strengthen the profiles of both Bullock and Keanu Reeves, who did not return for the sequel. Reeves was replaced by actor Jason Patric, and it turned out to be a smart decision for Reeves as the follow-up was panned by critics (it has a 4% on Rotten tomatoes), and it ended the franchise immediately.
While promoting The Matrix Resurrection in January 2022, Reeves was asked why he chose not to perform in Velocity succeeds while on Graham Norton Show. “At the time, I did not respond to the script. I really wanted to work with Sandra Bullock, I loved playing Jack Traven, and I loved Velocitybut a sea ship? “joked the action star.” I had nothing against the artists involved, but at the time I had a feeling it was just not right. “
The lost citywho also plays Channing Tatum and Brad Pitt, opens March 25th.
