Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock to re-team for romantic drama

LOS ANGELES : The stars of the 1994 mega-hit thriller "Speed", Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock, are set to team up again in a romantic comedy that will begin shooting later this year.

The pair have signed on to co-star in Warner Bros.' studios "Il Mare", which will be directed by Argentinean filmmaker Alejandro Agresti, according to Daily Variety.

The script for the movie, an English-language remake of a South Korean film Siworae (2000), will be written by Pulitzer-winning playwright David Auburn.

Bullock will play a lonely doctor opposite Reeves' frustrated architect who fall in love through a series of letters they exchange through a mailbox that mysteriously bridges time.

The film, to be produced by Vertigo Entertainment's Roy Lee and Doug Davison, is scheduled to begin shooting in March and will be released in early 2006.

Reeves is the star of the hit "Matrix" movies while Bullock, who shot to fame in the terror thriller "Speed," starred in "Miss Congeniality" (2000), the sequel to which, "Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous," is due out this year. - AFP

People seem to think that Speed was good only because it had Keanu and Sandra in it. They also seem tot hink that the only reason Speed 2 failed was ebcause Keanu wasn't in it. I think Speed was a good movie, good story, good script and Keanu and Sandra pulled it off really well. Speed 2, however, was badly written, had a shaky plot and that guy who was in it was a bad acter.

So just because Keanu and Sandra are going to be in this new movie together, doesn't guarantee that it's going to be any good.

To me, it was HOPPER who fueled Speed. Keanu was still the stiff he's always been, and back then I didn't like Bullock. I've warmed up to her a bit, but she still isn't one of my favorites. Dennis Hopper made Speed good for me.

Speed 2 I haven't even seen. Poor Jason Patric...
