See all the actresses who paved the way for Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, from the tragic Margot Kidder to the Academy Award nominee Amy Adams.

Lois Lane in James Gunn’s Superman cracked me up and annoyed me at the same time. My initial take on the 2025 version of Lois (played by Rachel Brosnahan) was that she’s an absolutely terrible journalist.

To become Lois Lane for “Superman,” the “Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” actress asked questions. Even when her job was to answer them.

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s Rachel Brosnahan in a public restroom. The actress, 34, revealed what she was doing when James Gunn called to offer her the role of Lois Lane in the new “Superman.”

Which brings us to Rachel Brosnahan, the newest movie Lois and so universally described as perfect casting that it’s hard for a Marvelous Mrs. Maisel skeptic not to roll their eyes a little.
