"Sandra loved her Miss Congeniality FBI agent character Gracie Hart and the concept so much that for years she has continued to keep up friendships with FBI agents she met while researching it, " the source said.
Bullock, who won an Academy Award for The Blind Side, also played an FBI agent in the buddy comedy The Heat opposite Melissa McCarthy last year.
"Sandra loves that real FBI agents, particularly female ones, continue to respond to and write her letters about both Miss Congeniality and The Heat."
