Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock to reunite for new movie

Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock are reuniting for a new movie.

The pair – who previously co-starred in 1994 action thriller ‘Speed’ and 2006 romance fantasy ‘The Lake House’ – are set to join forces for an unnamed romantic thriller for at Amazon MGM Studios.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the plot for the film – which is being penned by ‘Jackie’ scribe Noah Oppenheim – has been described as “propulsive”.

Mark Gordon – who produced ‘Speed’ – will produce the movie with Reeves and Bibby Dunn via The Mark Gordon Company, along with Bullock for Fortis Films and Oppenheim and Sarah Bremner for Prologue Entertainment.

Just last year, Reeves and Bullock revealed they were keen to reunite on screen again.

During a joint interview on the ‘50 MPH’ podcast, Keanu spoke about a possible ‘Speed 3’, saying: “I mean, you know — we’d freakin’ knock it out of the park.”

Sandra added: “There’s no formula. It just is. Before I die, before I leave this planet, I do think that Keanu and I need to do something in front of the camera. Are we, you know, in wheelchairs or with walkers? Maybe. Are we on little scooters at Disneyland?”

Keanu said: “It does feel like there is a siren call to it, like there’s something that wasn’t done. I would love to work with you again before our eyes close.”

Speaking about ‘Speed’, he said: “We had an affection. And the characters themselves have an affection. I think Jack and Annie’s is different than Sandra’s and Keanu’s, but I think we played off each other and I think it was just fun. I think, also, we kind of trusted each other, right?”

Sandra replied: “Yeah. I mean, people have full-blown affairs in movies, and you don’t feel something between them. And then people can hate each other in movies and you go, ‘That was electric,’ you know? We didn’t really look at each other in this movie except for maybe three or four times, because we were constantly battling the elements. And I think that’s what made it so electric, too, is that, watching it, I guess you want them to connect. That was a really clever setup, to sort of keep people apart. Foreplay, I guess.”
