Sandra Bullock is one of Hollywood's best-loved actresses, and we all squealed with delight when we heard the news that the glamazon is coming back to the silver screen, starring in the sequel to the 1998 cult classic Practical Magic, alongside Nicole Kidman.

The 61-year-old was spotted on the streets of London on Monday afternoon, filming for the sure-fire blockbuster hit. 

Journalist and stylist Scott Da Silva-Wells witnessed the incredible moment right by his front door and quickly filmed the action taking place. In the video, the beautiful actress can be seen rocking a long navy coat, ballet pumps, a glam tote bag, and her trademark mermaid hair billowing behind her as she waved at onlookers in between takes.

The short video generated a huge viral moment on social media, with Scott's content reaching over 200,000 views.

Scott exclusively told HELLO!: "It was a pinch me moment to see THE Sandra Bullock, and of course Dianne Weist, outside my door on a Monday morning. It was amazing to see her in action, and she even greeted some fans who were standing by her trailer with a big smile and a wave."
