While Miss Congeniality may have been an iconic staple in Sandra Bullock's career, she has recently admitted that she has some regrets about the sequels.

In April, the 57-year-old opened up to Metro UK about her thoughts on the films, admitting that the original should have been a "one-off", and Miss Congeniality 2, should not have been done.

Recently, Sandra Bullock has been getting candid about which movies she regrets making.

She recently admitted that Miss Congeniality 2 is on the list. But last month, when asked in an interview with TooFab if there are any movies she's been in that were received badly that she has since come around on, she revealed that she has major regrets over Speed 2.

She said she is still "embarrassed" about it.

"I have one no one came around to and I’m still embarrassed I was in," she said. "It’s called Speed 2."

She said that she's always been transparent about her feelings toward the film.

"I’ve been very vocal about it. Makes no sense. Slow boat. Slowly going towards an island," she explained, adding that she wishes that she "hadn't done" it.

"Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe who was also a part of the interview, pointed out that the movie, "had a kind of cult love as well," but Bullock quickly argued that "cult love" would be giving the film too much credit.

"Like five people. Him and the other four 12-year-olds who were watching the slow boat going towards the tiny island," she said.

The "Bird Box" actress has also recently unveiled the news of her decision to step back from acting. She assured fans, however, that this is not her official retirement.

"I'm not retiring, just going to not spend time in front of the camera for a while," she said, according to People. "I have beautiful babies. I'd rather look at them."

"I'd rather look at them every day and have them be mad at me and annoyed and make memories with them for right now," the mom-of-two continued.

"I never said I'm retiring, unless while I'm with the babies, [If] I decide to retire, then I'll make that announcement," Bullock said, adding, "A very important announcement that no one will care about."

She also revealed to Entertainment Tonight that she is unsure how long her hiatus from acting will be.

"Right now, and I don't know how long that will be, I need to be in the place that makes me happiest," she shared. "I take my job very seriously when I'm at work. It's 24/7 and I just want to be 24/7 with my babies and my family." 

Not long after her candid remarks about "Speed 2" Bullock got real about another film she regrets: "Miss Congeniality 2".

When asked about Miss Congeniality 2 in a recent interview with Metro UK, Bullock said: "[It] shouldn't have been done."

While the original "Miss Congeniality" was a hit, Bullock firmly believes it should have been a "one-off."

Bullock added that she isn't completely regretful of the film "because of Regina [King], who I just freaking adore."

"That one should have remained a one-off," she said.
