Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves starred in the 1994 film,Speed,which has a whopping score of 94% on Rotten Tomatoes. The film was received exceptionally by both critics and fans and even won two Academy Awards. One year into the future,Speedwill be celebrating its 30thanniversary and naturally, we are curious if there’s a chance for a Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves reunion.
WhileSpeeddid get a sequel in 1997, Keanu Reeves, unfortunately, didn’t join Sandra Bullock for it.Speed 2: Cruise Controlwasn’t as loved as its predecessor and with a 4% score on Rotten Tomatoes, it was mentioned in a lot of ‘Worst Sequel’ listings. With the 30thanniversary just around the corner, it might be time to make things right and the lead actors just might be down for it!

During the promotion of the 2022 film,The Lost City,Sandra Bullocktalked about what exactly will push her toward the franchise after the sequel performed so poorly. In an interview with Fox 5,Daniel Radcliffejoked around with Bullock about the possibility ofSpeed 3.Radcliffe stated with a laugh,“Speed 3: Horsepower. My friends have been pitching it to me.”
To this, Bullock stated that if Radcliffe would be the one sitting on the director’s chair. TheBird Boxactress said,“If Daniel would direct Speed 3: Horsepower…that’s what will get me out of the house.”Radcliffe jokingly asked Bullock to not threaten him with a good time. Bullock and Radcliffe developed a strong bond, so much so that the actress openly asked Marvel to cast theHarry Potteractor as Wolverine. She stated,“Wolverine people, can you please just f*cking cast him?”
What’s even more interesting is that the original lead actor of theSpeedfranchise,Keanu Reeves, is also willing to return for a sequel, despite not being in the second film. In an interview with Access Hollywood, Reeves stated that“A great story, a great script”is what will get him to come back for the franchise.

Sandra Bullock Regrets Being inSpeed 2
Despite having a wonderful career in the entertainment industry, Bullock has a regret and yes, the regret is starring inSpeed 2: Cruise Control.Talking to TooFab, Bullock was asked if there is a film she was“embarrassed”to do but came around later after seeing the reception. She replied stating,
“I have one [that] no one came around to and I am still embarrassed I was in. It’s called Speed 2. I have been very vocal about it. Makes no sense…That’s one I wish I hadn’t done and no fans came around that I know of.”
