Sandra Bullock joins "The Blindside"

by Jane Boursaw on February 19th, 2009

It seems like Sandra Bullock is back to making movies. She hadn’t really done much since 2007’s "Premonition," but now she’s got two movies this year, and also just signed for "The Blindside."

"The Blindside" is based on a novel by Michael Lewis, "The Blind Side: Evolution of the Game," and tells the true story of football player Michael Oher (projected to be one of the first players in this year’s NFL draft). Oher grew up homeless, but was taken in by a white family who encouraged him to aim high. 

Bullock will play Leigh Anne Touhy, the wealthy matriarch of the conservative household that takes him in. It’s directed and written by John Lee Hancock.

Bullock’s other films this year include "All About Steve" and "The Proposal," and four others in the next few years, including "The Expendables," Sylvester Stallone’s mercenary film.

What do you think about this? I’m excited to see Sandra Bullock back on the scene, because I love her work.
