Airports test patience. Delays test faith. And somewhere between lost luggage and gate changes, even the calmest traveler starts considering deals with the dark arts. For Rachel Brosnahan, the answer to a decade of travel chaos was not therapy, yoga, or a new suitcase. It was something far stranger, one that involved rituals so unusual they required an NDA. Turns out, when your life feels cursed at 30,000 feet, broomsticks might beat boarding passes.

While most celebrities swear by crystals and meditation apps, Rachel Brosnahan went full Hogwarts, proving sometimes a wand beats Wi-Fi when battling decade-long travel chaos.

Rachel Brosnahan told Jimmy Fallon on The Tonight Show about her decade-long “travel curse,” and it was not just middle-seat misery. Think flights vanishing mid-booking, New Mexico snowstorms, and airport chaos straight out of Murphy’s Law. Desperate, she hired a witch. “She brought a wishing well and a wand, and she signed an NDA.” The plot twist? “it worked,” Brosnahan said, officially making her witch the unsung MVP of the Superman press tour.

Nobody believes the curse, I should say, until they travel with me,” Rachel Brosnahan admitted. But after one enchanted house call, her world tour turned from disaster zone to dreamy. From London premieres to Tokyo selfies, her flights ran on time, luggage stayed put, and not a single gate-change-induced meltdown in sight. “I believe in witches and curses now.” Even DC Studios’ Peter Safran allegedly avoided flying with her pre-spell, proving a little witchcraft might trump even the fanciest airline loyalty programs.

While her flights finally behaved, Rachel Brosnahan’s Lois Lane audition still delivered the kind of chaos that could make even Clark Kent break a sweat.

Rachel Brosnahan’s Lois Lane audition was pure chaos and pure destiny

Rachel Brosnahan’s Lois Lane audition was cursed chaos at its cinematic finest. JFK delays, double-booked flights, and Olympic-level terminal sprints left her frazzled, caffeine-powered, and an hour late. But that chaotic energy? Pure Lois Lane. “It felt so Lois Lane-coded,” she later quipped on The Tonight Show. Brosnahan secured the role moments after regrouping in a public bathroom, proof that destiny (and maybe a dash of witchcraft) was working overtime.
