Sandra Bullock Recalls Early Career Humiliations and Strategic Pivot to Serious Drama
Sandra Bullock revealed in an interview with Jennifer Aniston that she endured objectifying auditions early in her career, including requests to remove her clothing. She described this period as a time of survival, where she took whatever work she could get while waiting tables in New York. Bullock noted that she eventually stopped accepting romantic comedies due to critical backlash and shifted toward dramatic roles, citing the 2004 film 'Crash' as a turning point that allowed her to explore more complex characters. Although she expressed a desire to return to comedy, she acknowledged the difficulty of finding suitable projects after her pivot to serious drama. Her recent release, 'Practical Magic 2,' marks her return to the big screen after a period of reduced activity following her partner’s illness.
