Her 2013 Comeback
In 2013, Bullock finally returned to the big screen when she starred alongside Melissa McCarthy in the huge hit The Heat. Bullock loved the film as she felt it wasn’t stereotypical. In an interview with Parade she said: “I’ve always wanted to do a female buddy film, the kind the guys get to do. This didn’t have anything to do with getting a guy, and it didn’t involve shoe shopping.”
The Biggest Hit Yet
Later in 2013, Bullock starred in a lead role of an astronaut and medical engineer in the movie Gravity. The film brought in $720 million worldwide and earned her her second Academy Award nom. She was also named Entertainer of the Year by Entertainment Weekly.
