Sandra's armed and fabulous!

Sandra Bullock hasn't been seen for a while. Last in the headlines denying rumours that she had turned down the Oscar-winning Hilary Swank role in Million Dollar Baby, the actress was last memorably seen in the Hugh Grant romantic comedy, Two Weeks' Notice.

In 2000, Sandra regaled audiences playing Gracie Hart, an undercover Federal Bureau of Investigation agent at the Miss America beauty pageant, in the Donald Petrie-directed comedy hit, Miss Congeniality.

Cut to the present, and Miss Congeniality 2: Armed And Fabulous, directed by John Pasquin, is set to hit theatres. Promoting the film at a press conference in Sydney, Australia, earlier this week, Sandra was all smiles.

The film features the FBI agent having to go undercover again, and also stars William Shatner, Regina King and Diedrich Bader.

Miss Congeniality 2: Armed And Fabulous releases in the US on March 24.
