Rachel Brosnahan Travel Curse: How a Witch Set Her Free Before Superman Tour .
You’d never expect Rachel Brosnahan, the sharp, cool-as-ice star of Superman and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, to be cursed. But during her recent sit-down with Jimmy Fallon, she dropped a wild truth bomb: she’s been battling a travel curse for over a decade. And it was so intense, she actually called in a witch to lift it.
Yep, you read that right. A witch. With a wand. And a NDA.

The Travel Curse That Drove Hollywood Execs Away
Rachel’s story started with the usual late-night laughs—but quickly spiraled into something out of a movie. She revealed that every trip she takes, no matter how carefully planned, ends up a stressful mess. We’re talking whiteout snowstorms in New Mexico, getting stranded at LAX for eight hours, and constant delays and lost baggage.
It got so bad that even Peter Safran, the co-head of DC Studios, refused to get on a plane with her. “I’m not flying with you,” he apparently said. Can you blame him?

Yes, a Real Witch Helped Her Break the Curse 🧙♀️
In true New Yorker fashion, Brosnahan reached her limit and did what any rational person would do (okay, maybe not any rational person): she called a witch.
“I asked around—energy healers, past-life readers, anything,” she told Jimmy. Finally, a friend connected her with a legit travel curse specialist. The witch arrived at Rachel’s house armed with a wand, a wishing well, and the all-important non-disclosure agreement.
They tackled the curse together—and apparently, it worked. “I made it around the world,” she said proudly. “I’m here. And I believe in witches now.”
Lois Lane Almost Didn’t Happen
One of the most jaw-dropping parts of the interview? Rachel had to sprint through JFK Airport (which she hilariously learned is the size of 39 football fields) just to make it to her Superman audition. Flights got delayed, canceled, rebooked, re-delayed—you name it.
By the time she landed in L.A., she was frazzled, sweaty, and running on no sleep. But maybe that frazzled energy was exactly what Lois Lane needed. Brosnahan says the audition room must’ve picked up on her chaos-coded energy—because she landed the role.
“The chaos must’ve felt so Lois Lane-coded,” she joked. “It worked out.”
America Loves This Side of Rachel
Fans already adore her talent, but this side of Rachel Brosnahan—funny, honest, and just a little witchy—shows she’s the real deal. From Maisel to Metropolis, she’s bringing the magic both on-screen and off.
The internet has been eating up this story ever since it aired. Fans are loving the idea that behind every polished red-carpet look is a woman who barely survived airport drama and had to exorcise a petty travel hex.
And let’s be honest—only Rachel Brosnahan could make calling a witch sound both normal and totally glamorous.
