If you’ve been missing your dose of Sandra Bullock, she might be back to our screens soon, reports have claimed.
In 2022, Bullock announced her intention to take an indefinite hiatus from acting to focus on her children, telling CBS Sunday Morning that she wanted 'to be at home'.
In 2023, her long-term partner, photographer Bryan Randall, passed away after being diagnosed with ALS three years prior.
Randall was 57 years old when he passed away, having met the Speed star eight years prior.

His family in a statement said that they were 'immensely grateful to the tireless doctors who navigated the landscape of this illness', as per the BBC.
And now, according to US Weekly, the star is now prepping herself for her return.
A source claimed that she is ‘gradually remerging into public life.’
They added that: "She's excited about what the future holds. She's ready to get back in the game."
Another source claimed that filming Lost City in 2022 was tough for her and she'd chose to step back from the limelight to focus on her family.
They said: "Sandra needed the break to be with her family and Bryan."
In a rare candid moment, the Miss Congeniality star previously discussed the possibility of marrying the two each other, saying: "I found the love of my life. We share two beautiful children— three children, [Randall's] older daughter. It's the best thing ever.
"I don't wanna say do it like I do it, but I don't need a paper to be a devoted partner and devoted mother...[but] "He's the example that I would want my children to have.
"I have a partner who's very Christian and there are two different ways of looking at things. I don't always agree with him, and he doesn't always agree with me. But he is an example even when I don't agree with him."
Prior to her hiatus, the actor also said in an interview with the Hollywood Reporter that she was 'exhausted' and 'so burnt out'.
She also added that she 'really didn’t know' how long the break would last, adding: "Work has always been steady for me, and I’ve been so lucky. I realized it possibly was becoming my crutch. It was like opening up a fridge all the time and looking for something that was never in the fridge.
"I said to myself, ‘Stop looking for it here because it doesn’t exist here. You already have it; establish it, find it and be OK not having work to validate you'.”
Recently, Nicole Kidman announced that both she and Bullock were returning as Sally and Gilly Owens for Practical Magic 2.
As per People, Kidman said: "Yes I will be in it. And Sandy will be in it. And that's that.
"There's a lot more to tell which is why we go, 'OK, this is kind of interesting now to be able to do this.' [We] found a way in."
Tyla has contacted Bullock's reps for comment.
