Bullock relocated to New York City after graduating from college to pursue a career in acting, where she worked, took acting workshops, and auditioned for stage and student films. In order to pay the expenses of living and surviving in a big city, she worked as a bartender, cocktail waitress, and coat checker.

After relocating to Los Angeles, Bullock landed a prominent role in 1993's Demolition Man alongside Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes. Bullock featured alongside Keanu Reeves in the the 1994 film Speed, which grossed $350.4 million worldwide the next year. Bullock's career skyrocketed suddenly, and it has been there ever since.

Sandra was paid $500,000 for her role in Speed. After inflation, that equates to about $900,000 today. The next year, she was paid $250,000 for her work on The Net. Prior to the huge popularity of Speed, this payment was negotiated.
