Apparently Sandra Bullock is hot right now. Straight off her high profile 2009 Oscar winning year, she's been in demand and on fire. Sure, she has a mess right now in that 'Heat' movie, which is taking a beating with early reviews and controversy over that hideous poster, but her career is hitting a re-surged stride that is undeniable. She's getting a lot of early Oscar buzz for her latest role in 'Gravity', the sci-fi thriller out later this year, and news is a buzz at the moment about her possibly joining the remake of 'Annie' as non other than Mrs. Hannigan! Quvenzhane Wallis and Jamie Foxx are already on board, and speculation was circling around names like Queen Latifah for the infamous Hannigan role, but it looks like Bullock is in talks to take it. Personally, I'm VERY partial to Burnett's performance in the 1982 film version (Fisti nominee for sure) and while I love me some Latifah, the idea of her cast in the role seemed a tad lazy. This news is totally out of left field (who would have thunk it) and yet it makes total sense. Bullock is a seasoned comedian who is exceptional with physical comedy, and playing a self absorbed drunk with a heart (however masked by her desperation) is the perfect role for her to take on. I hope this movie is good (since I'll be stuck seeing it over and over thanks to my daughter's obsession with the story) but now I kind of hope it's great.
