In 2017, the movie Power Rangers was released, featuring Elizabeth Banks as the villainous Rita Repulsa, who was once a Green Ranger. Although Sandra Bullock’s acting skills and versatility could have seamlessly fit into this narrative, the film’s underwhelming box office performance would have been a risky career move for the accomplished actress.

Another relevant movie released in 2019 is X-Men: Dark Phoenix, which features Jessica Chastain as the character Vuk. This role could have been a consideration for Bullock as well.
