Hollywood stars Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves have stirred up the anticipation for their on-screen reunion in a potential Speed 3 with their recent remarks. And the film would also be an idle opportunity for the Oscar-winning actress to tap back into comedy, something that she has expressed a longing for since her role in The Unforgivable.

Since The Unforgivable, Bullock has returned to comedy, with the 2022 film The Lost City. While she has other projects lined up, including a potential sequel to Bird Box, the prospect of a Speed 3 with Keanu Reeves presents an enticing opportunity for her to further explore comedy alongside a perfect on-screen partner.I guess making someone cry is far more important than making them laugh — It really requires a village to make comedy work, at least for me… I need a great partner opposite me to play ball with.
Speed 3 Could Fulfill Sandra Bullock’s Desire to Return to Comedy Films
Released in 1994, the action thriller film Speed has become iconic for several elements from the chemistry between its lead cast to the intense and thrilling sequences that kept the audience on the edge of their seats.
Alongside its intense drama, the film also integrated moments of humor that captivated audiences. And it is something that could be further explored in the potential Speed 3 with Bullock and Reeves, who have expressed their wish to reunite on screen.

“If somebody writes something brilliant and it puts us in the right place at the right time,” The Heat actress said, expressing her desire to work with Reeves. The threequel could potentially offer a new dynamic to their characters Jack and Annie 30 years after they first met and following the lackluster events of the sequel.
However, it would not be without challenges as the threequel would need to carefully navigate to maintain integrity along with meeting fans’ expectations and honoring the original film’s legacy. While not officially confirmed, fans remain optimistic about the prospect of seeing Reeves and Bullock reprise their roles as Jack and Annie.
