Sandra Bullock's Quotes About Black Panther 2018 Oscars
The Sweet Reason Sandra Bullock Cried When She Met the Black Panther Cast at the Oscars
Sandra Bullock had an unexpected emotional moment at the 2018 Oscars. In a red carpet interview with Access, the 53-year-old actress said she was overcome with emotion while meeting the cast of Black Panther and thinking about the film's importance to young people of color, like her 8-year-old adopted son, Louis.
"I just was behind the Black Panther cast. I started to cry backstage when I was telling them how much the film meant to me as a woman, but how much it meant to me as a mother," Sandra said. "I started crying! I was like, 'Oh my god! What am I doing?' That says a lot about where we are in this world and in the world of superheroes."
Sandra admitted that her son hasn't seen the movie yet since he's a little too young for some of the more violent scenes, but she'll probably let him see it in about a year. As for her 5-year-old daughter, Laila, Sandra definitely thinks she's too young. "My daughter — heck no! She'll stab my son after she sees it," Sandra joked.
Sandra added that she is so thankful to Marvel for the historic movie. Sharing a touching anecdote, Sandra said, "About five years ago, my son asked me if there were any brown Legos. I said, 'Yes, there are,' and I got a Sharpie and I turned Spider-Man brown, I turned the Legos brown, and I don't have to turn them brown anymore." Watch the interview below.
