Hugh Grant has revealed that Sandra Bullock avoided him for nearly three years after a disastrous first meeting, despite later co-starring together in the hit 2002 romantic comedy Two Weeks Notice.
In a candid interview with the BBC, Grant shared how his excitement to work with Bullock quickly turned into embarrassment. The British actor, known for his charming roles in Notting Hill and Love Actually, said he had long admired Bullock and looked forward to collaborating with her.
“We’d been dying to do something for ages,” Grant recalled. “But when we finally had our first ‘relationship meeting,’ I told Sandy a very disgusting story. She left the room — and I didn’t hear from her for three years.”
Bullock later confirmed her discomfort in a separate interview, explaining that while she appreciates Grant’s honesty, his bluntness can be off-putting. “He needs to curb himself,” she said. “If people really heard what he thinks, he could offend just about anyone.”
Despite the awkward start, the pair eventually mended their dynamic and went on to share great on-screen chemistry in Two Weeks Notice, which grossed $199 million worldwide.
Their story offers a humorous yet honest look at how rocky beginnings can sometimes lead to successful partnerships in Hollywood.
