Jennifer Garner's '13 Going On 30' Costar Brittany Curran Arrested

Brittany Curran, best known for her roles in "13 Going On 30" and "Chicago Fire," is making headlines after a recent arrest in California. The 35-year-old actress was taken into custody after police say she arrived at a station showing visible signs of intoxication and appeared unable to care for herself. The incident comes at a time when Curran’s career has continued moving forward, with a new film currently in post-production.

According to TMZ, the Burbank Police Department said the actress showed up at the police station displaying "objective signs and symptoms of alcohol intoxication." Authorities said the situation raised immediate concerns about her safety and condition.

According to police, the "13 Going On 30" was so drunk she couldn't "answer basic questions, could not account for how she arrived at the location, and appeared unable to care for her own safety." The circumstances surrounding how she ended up at the station remain unclear.

Curran was booked in Burbank, California, on a charge of being drunk in public and disorderly conduct. No additional details about potential court dates or legal proceedings have been publicly released.

Curran first gained recognition appearing alongside Jennifer Garner in the beloved romantic comedy "13 Going On 30," later expanding her career with television roles, including "Chicago Fire." Her work has spanned both film and television over the years, helping establish her as a familiar face to audiences.

The arrest comes as Curran has a new project on the horizon. In May 2025, Deadline announced she would be playing Julia Winters opposite Joey Lawrence and Beverly D'Angelo in the film "The Heart Brake." Filming took place during the summer of 2025, and the movie is now in post-production.

The timing of Curran’s headlines also comes as "13 Going on 30" recently marked a major milestone, celebrating 20 years since the beloved romantic comedy first hit theaters. To commemorate the anniversary, actress Christa B. Allen spoke with The Blast about the lasting impact of the film. Allen, who starred as Young Jenna Rink opposite Jennifer Garner's adult version of the character, says the role continues to hold profound meaning two decades later.

"Jenna still lives on in me, as she lives on in all of us," she reflected. "That character resonates over decades because she was written with purity, with honesty, with truth."

For Allen, "13 Going on 30" was never just a coming-of-age comedy. Instead, it was an early lesson in manifestation and faith.

"Jenna's story has inspired generations because it is pure manifestation, pure prayer," she told The Blast. "Her dream house was a vision board made 3D. Her wishing dust stirred the emotion of excitement in her as she aligned with her desired future. It is 'The Secret.' Jenna Rink jumped timelines. Jenna Rink is the original manifestation guru."

Garner has also been looking back on the legacy of "13 Going On 30," especially the relationships that formed while making the beloved movie. The actress revealed that her bond with co-stars Mark Ruffalo and Judy Greer became so strong over the years that she almost forgets the film was where they first met. “That's how deep we go,” the actress told PEOPLE.

Garner also reflected on the movie’s success at the time, explaining that while it may not have been considered a massive blockbuster, it represented a major milestone for everyone involved. When it was released in 2004, the film brought in $96.5 million at the box office.

The actress said "13 Going On 30" wasn't “a huge movie,” but it “was the biggest paycheck any of us had ever had, even though it was not crazy,” she said of her and her co-stars Ruffalo and Greer. “It was such a step up. We didn't know if it would be any good or not, but we were all so in it to win it.”
