Sandra Bullock

An icon of 1990s action movies.

Bullock isn’t happy with the label “romcom chick”.

“That’s one I wished I hadn’t done, and no fans came around that I know of.”

“You’d explain that it was an avant-garde, existential film on loss and survival… and everyone would be like… Ok…”

“I didn’t want to be a part of that world where there was that experience.”

A shocking story.

One role is all it takes.

A harrowing experience.

“Uncomfortable and in pain.”

No apology required.

A mighty list of icons.

Had to wait a little longer for success.
