While she didn't play any superheroes, Bullock was very busy for the next few years taking on a variety of roles in rapid succession. In 2002, she starred as a homicide detective in "Murder by Numbers," and as a southern playwright in the film adaptation of "Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood." She next went back to her romantic comedy roots, starring with Hugh Grant in the underwhelming "Two Weeks Notice" (2002), with the actress playing the aide-de-camp to a reckless mogul who doesn't appreciate the doting care she gives him. At this point in her career, Bullock was entering dangerous Doris Day territory, playing winsome, klutzy roles that were better suited for someone younger. However, her very brief turn in the racially charged, multi-plot drama "Crash" (2005) was a step in the right direction, with Bullock playing a middle aged white L.A. woman of privilege who, after a traumatic carjacking, angrily acts out on all of her worst prejudices and racial fears.

Bullock was once engaged to actor Tate Donovan whom she met while filming Love Potion No. 9. Their relationship lasted four years.[5] She had previously dated football player Troy Aikman, blues guitarist Guy Forsythe, Austin musician Bob Schneider (for two years)[5] and film co-stars, Ryan Gosling and Matthew McConaughey. McConaughey and Bullock met each other while filming A Time to Kill and became friends. They dated for a while. Some notable celebrity friends include Heather Burns and Hugh Grant.
Next there was more Lawrence with Two Weeks Notice, another rom-com with Sandra as a smart but neurotic lawyer, representing a charming but uncontrollable property developer Hugh Grant. She wants to save a beautiful old building, he wants to knock it down. She hates him but, in the grand old rom-com tradition, when she's replaced by Alicia Witt she realises that she really loves him. The movie, one of Bullock's own Fortis productions, was another feel-good hit.
