Speed's 30‑year celebration: Bullock and reeves tease reunion
It's been 30 years since Bullock and Reeves created an electrifying duo on screen, portraying a couple trying to control a bus speeding through the streets. Does their meeting after many years herald great news for fans?
On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the premiere of the cult action film "Speed," its stars — Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock — met at a special event in Los Angeles where fans could ask them questions. So, did the question about the chances of the actors reuniting on set again arise?
Sandra Bullock wondered if it was possible to create a new production that would meet the expectations of today's audiences. "It would require a lot from everybody. I don't know if we're in an industry anymore that's willing to tolerate it and be brave enough to do it," Bullock added.
This isn't the first time they have faced this question. Some time ago, she and Keanu were guests on a podcast, and the "Matrix" star enthusiastically said, "We'd crush it!" Bullock was not equally convinced, only diplomatically stating that she would be happy to act alongside Keanu again.
"Speed." an action movie classic
The first "Speed" film debuted in 1994 and became a legend of action cinema. It received three Oscar nominations and won awards for sound editing and best sound. The film earned ten times its budget in cinemas. Three years later, the sequel was made: "Speed 2: Cruise Control", but unfortunately, it didn't measure up to the first one. Reeves did not participate in it. The film was so poorly received that it received a Razzie Award for the worst remake. Both films are now available on Disney+.
