Sandra Bullock has joined Instagram, to the delight of her A-list pals.

The movie star, 61, has finally caved, creating an account on Tuesday night as promotion for her hugely anticipated next movie Practical Magic 2 ramps up.

For her first post, Sandra shared a behind the scenes video from the set of the upcoming film, as she mixed up a batch of her character's signature midnight margaritas, with the caption 'Midnight somewhere…'

Sandra's follower count is already at over 4million just hours after she joined the social media site, and among her fans are her celeb pals.

Jennifer Aniston welcomed her close friend to Instagram with a tagged selfie, as she gushed 'someone we really all love very much just joined Instagram... It sucks! You're gonna love it...'

Reese Witherspoon joined in the comment section as she gushed 'IG just got a lot better' whilst Sandra's Practical Magic co-star Nicole Kidman wrote: 'I'll have margaritas with you anytime'.

Sandra got stuck into her first evening on Insta, trawling her pal's accounts and leaving some hilarious comments.  

After a fan account shared quotes from her The Lost City co-star Channing Tatum's 2024 GQ interview in which he admitted to buying a year's worth of white t-shirts to avoid doing laundry, Sandra wrote in the comments section: 'Of course you did.'.

Beneath a video of Jennifer doing Jason Bateman's hair,  she commented 'Me next mama? Going for a witchy look…'

Nicole Kidman also earned comments, as she wrote on her co-star's July video of the two hugging on set 'we're so back'. 

Sandra had previously insisted she wouldn't join social media, hitting out at fake accounts pretending to be her, as she told People last year: 'Please be aware that I do not participate in any form of social media'.

In a 2018 interview with InStyle she insisted it would be dangerous if she ever did start an account, admitting 'oh god, I would have one glass of rosé and be spouting off like [slurs voice], "This is not the truth!"'

The actress, who is mom to Louis, 16, and Laila, 11, has maintained that she keeps up with the online world though, explaining how she's 'not ignorant of what's happening out there'. 

'I look over people's shoulders, going, "What is that little vignette of a cat on a fan?" I'm just lazy.'

'I'm going to get on it and troll my friends,' she teased. 'Once my kids are using it, I'll know how to navigate it. I don't want to be naïve.'

Earlier on Tuesday Sandra made her grand return to a red carpet at CinemaCon.

The actress looked shockingly youthful in a vibrant red suit with an exposed bra top as she joined her costar Nicole Kidman in Las Vegas to promote their upcoming sequel to Practical Magic.

The moment marked the first time Sandra has walked a red carpet since October 2024, and she didn't disappoint with her sizzling ensemble.

Sandra and Nicole'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. Sandra joked, 'That's exactly what happens every time I leave to take the kids to school,' according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Sabdra 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 Nicole to repeat her oft-mocked movie intro line: 'We come to this place for magic!' 

As the audience erupted in applause, Nicole admitted that she 'didn't think anyone would clap,' while Bullock shouted, 'I told you!'
