Who is Rachel Brosnahan's husband, Jason Ralph? The Superman actress' beau starred alongside her in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and he helped her audition for the part of Lois Lane
Rachel Brosnahan is all the rage in Hollywood right now. The Emmy-winning actress starred in The Amateur alongside
Rami Malek earlier this year, and she has another blockbuster in tow: director James Gunn's Superman, in which she plays Lois Lane to
David Corenswet's Superman.
Speaking with Good Housekeeping, the 34-year-old revealed she found out she had booked the part while in the bathroom of an Aritzia store in New York's SoHo. 'I was praying that the toilet didn't flush behind me, but I didn't want to miss the call,' she recalled, adding, 'I picked up the phone and he just said, 'How'd you like to be the next Lois Lane?' I was very excited and then immediately nervous. I had big shoes to fill.'

However, before she could experience this dreamlike moment, Brosnahan had to earn her part. 'I made a tape in my living room with my husband,' she said, noting her hubby Jason Ralph's contribution to her audition, before quipping, 'He's really confused about why he's not playing Superman after his excellent off-camera reading.'

NBA Finals: Haliburton's heroics help Pacers steal last-second win over Thunder in Game 1
Indiana's Tyrese Haliburton sank the game-winning basket in the final second to give the Pacers a stunning 111-110 fightback victory over Oklahoma City in Friday's opening game of the NBA Finals. Haliburton, who had 14 points and 10 rebounds, gave the Pacers their only lead of the game on a dramatic 21-foot jump shot with 0.3 of a second remaining to deliver a shocker after Indiana had trailed by 15 points with 9:42 remaining. 'We got the stop and coach trusts us in those moments to not call a timeout, trusts me in those moments, guys trust me and just trying to make a play,' Haliburton said of the last shot. 'Basketball is fun, man, winning is fun,' he added in an on-court interview. 'That's a great win for us.' With a game-closing 14-2 run, the Pacers seized a 1-0 lead in the best-of-seven series, with game two on Sunday at Oklahoma City.
