Sandra Bullock's net worth is a staggering amount of wealth it seems. After all, the "Gravity" star has just been hailed as this year's highest-paid actress by Forbes. While the famous opulent magazine has revealed how much money the film actress raked in from June 2013 to June 2014 ($51 million), Sandra Bullock's net worth was not disclosed. But how much is it really?
The Virginia-born actress, who has starred in a number of romantic comedies, is the daughter of an American voice coach and a German opera singer. Hence, it's not surprising that she spent most of her childhood days singing in a choir in Germany.
While her youth may have been anything but exciting, things started to change when Sandra took the chance of abandoning her University studies to try her luck in the field of acting.
As a young aspiring actress, Bullock moved to New York City and took acting classes and even went to auditions time after time. Back then, she always landed small roles for stage and student films.
When she moved to Los Angeles, her luck changed and that was the start of the growth of Sandra Bullock's net worth.
Earning not as much as what she does today, Bullock managed to secure a string of small roles in a number of flicks.
Fortunately, in 1993, Bullock landed a major part in the Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes starrer "Demolition Man," giving a slight boost to her net worth back then.
Things quickly picked up the pace for the young actress. Following her first major role, she snagged the co-starring part with Keanu Reeves in "Speed" - a blockbuster flick that grossed $350.4 million worldwide.
Sandra Bullock's net worth then exploded overnight. Project after project, her fame was skyrocketing while securing high profile roles for a number of highly successful films including "While You Were Sleeping," "A Time To Kill," "Miss Congeniality and "Two Weeks Notice," among others.
In 2005, aside from the big boost in Sandra Bullock's net worth, the actress also received critical praise for her supporting role in "Crash." She earned three Academy Awards for her performance in the said film.
Bullock's 2009 film "The Blind Side" - which earned $309 million - also added and maintained her wealth. However, her latest movie "Gravity" proved to be her highest grossing film to date, hauling $700 million at the worldwide box office.
Reports say that for the said 2013 flick alone, Sandra Bullock's net worth obtained an additional $70 million, which is perhaps one of the largest paychecks for a single acting role.
So how much is Sandra Bullock's net worth all in all? Celebrity Networth says it's a whopping $200 million
On the other hand, The Richest lists Sandra Bullock's net worth to be at $195 million.
