The moment marked the first time Bullock has walked a red carpet since October 2024, and she didn't disappoint with her sizzling ensemble
Bullock's suit included wide-legged slacks, which she held up with an intriguing gold chain belt that appeared to cut through holes in her jacket to keep the entire outfit in place.
She elevated her stature with a pair of pointy-toed black heels that complemented her lustrous raven tresses, which she wore in thick waves cascading down her shoulders.
The Oscar winner completed her outfit with some extra sparkle from a set of dangling black feather-like earrings.
She was joined on the red carpet by her Practical Magic costar, Nicole Kidman.
The 58-year-old Australian–American actress contrasted her costar's outfit with a plunging black sleeveless dress.
It featured an opaque slip with a slanted skirt underneath, which revealed the semi-sheer construction of the dress.
Kidman matched Bullock with her own set of pointy black pumps to complete her outfit.
The two are reuniting for a sequel to 1998's Practical Magic, in which they starred as Sally and Gillian Owens, sisters who are descended from a long line of witches.

Bullock starred as Sally, who had given up her magical ways after her husband died, apparently from a family curse that targets any man whom one of the Owens women falls in love with.
Kidman played Sally's free-spirited sister Gillian, who continued to practice magic.
She was forced to turn to her more uptight sister for help after falling victim to an abusive boyfriend who pursued her from beyond the grave.
Bullock and Kidman's CinemaCon appearance included the release of exclusive footage from Practical Magic 2 for film industry attendees.
The women were engulfed in smoke as they emerged on stage to introduce the footage. Bullock joked, 'That's exactly what happens every time I leave to take the kids to school,' according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Bullock even set up her costar to deliver her now-iconic line that precedes screenings at AMC movie theaters. 'Why do we come here, Nicole?' she teased, leading Kidman to repeat her oft-mocked movie intro line: 'We come to this place for magic!'
As the audience erupted in applause, Kidman admitted that she 'didn't think anyone would clap,' while Bullock shouted, 'I told you!'
According to the duo, their new sequel follows up with the Owens sisters as their pasts begin to catch up with them.

The Friends star flashed a soft smile while posing with Bullock in a selfie as she joked that Instagram 'sucks,' even though Bullock is 'gonna love it'
Earlier on Tuesday, Bullock made her first Instagram post, which seemed to double as Practical Magic 2 promotion. She playfully pointed at a bar blender, which began to run on its own
She then blew on her finger as if it was a handgun, and she captioned the post, 'Midnight somewhere...'
'Sally is single, and if you know the original film, you can probably guess why,' Bullock said, adding that she now has two daughters (played by Joey King and Maisie Williams).
Earlier on Tuesday, Bullock's friend Jennifer Aniston publicly welcomed her to Instagram after she shared her first post the same day.
In her Instagram Stories, the Friends actress teased, 'Someone we really all love very much just joined Instagram... ❤️🫣👉🏻.'
Aniston's follow-up slide featured a selfie in which she displayed a lovely soft smile while Bullock, who covered her dark hair with a paisley bandana, rested her head against a bar and gazed off into the distance.
'@sandrabullock!!!!' she revealed to her 44.8 million followers.
'It sucks!' she said of Instagram, before cheekily adding, 'You're gonna love it . . . . 😑.'
Bullock's debut on Instagram appeared to be part of the promotion for her new film, as she shared what looked like a grainy behind-the-scenes clip and linked to the movie's Instagram account in her bio.
The clip showed her playfully pointing toward a blender at a bar, which began to run on its own as soon as she pointed her finger at it.
She then blew on her finger as if it was a handgun, and she captioned the post, 'Midnight somewhere...'
