Still thinking about that kiss? Well, Nobody Wants This will return for a second season on Netflix. The popular romantic comedy is due to begin filming soon, with plenty of familiar faces returning and some new cast members. Below is our list of all the new and returning cast members for Nobody Wants This Season 2 on Netflix.

After a swift renewal, filming for Nobody Wants This was due to get underway in early 2025. However, after a brief delay, filming will begin in March 2025 and is expected to end by April 2025. This means we still expect to see the series premiere on Netflix before the end of 2025.

The series stars Kristen Bell as Joanne, a relationship podcaster, and Adam Brody as Noah, a rabi. Soon after the pair meet and begin dating, they fall in love, but due to their unconventional pairing,...

After debuting to critical and popular acclaim last September, Netflix’s rom-com series Nobody Wants This is getting very close to the start of production on Season 2. So what can star Adam Brody tease?

“Very little,” he admitted tonight, in conversation with Deadline on the SAG Awards red carpet. “I think repercussions from [Noah] choosing maybe love over work. He’s going to grapple with that. That’s about as much as I know, to be honest with you.”

Created by and exec produced by Erin Foster, Nobody Wants This explores the unconventional romance between Joanne, a candid agnostic podcaster portrayed by Kristen Bell, and Brody’s unconventional rabbi, Noah Roklov. Inspired by Foster’s relationship with husband Simon Tikhman, the show’s Season 1 finale saw Noah at a crossroads, as Joanne decided, after much contemplation, against converting to Judaism, in a move that leads to the couple’s breakup.

Alongside Ed Westwick's Chuck, Leighton Meester's Blair was the ultimate fan-favorite character in Gossip Girl. Now, Meester is bringing the "Queen B" energy to a different hit show.

Although Meester has just reunited with The CW for a brand-new show, Good Cop/ Bad Cop, where she co-stars with Luke Cook and Clancy Brown, the actress has secured yet a brand-new role. This will include a switchover to Netflix, as Meester has officially joined the streaming service's hit rom-com series Nobody Wants This in a guest role, Variety reports. It also comes with a sweet twist.

Gallagher played Brody’s TV dad in the Fox drama for four seasons and recently shared his sentiment over his hit show.

“I wouldn’t go as far as being a proud dad, and I haven’t seen the show, but I’m proud of him all the time as his friend and former TV dad,” Gallagher told People. “And I’m not surprised at all [of the renaissance]. He’s so talented and I’m glad he’s still doing his thing.”

Gallagher played Sandy Cohen in the Josh Schwartz-created drama, which premiered on Fox in 2003. Brody was Seth Cohen, Gallagher’s son obsessed with comic books and pop culture.

Although Foster based it on their story, Tikham is not a rabbi. However, the showrunner used him as her inspiration to create Noah, who she wanted to be "emotionally available, chivalrous, old-fashioned ... but also really funny and confident."

Adding to the stand-out romantic comedies on Netflix, the Adam Brody and Kristen Bell-led Nobody Wants This has already proven to be a crowd-pleaser, ranking number one in several countries as the most watched title. While the series has been praised for many reasons, one thing that has stood out with most viewers is the chemistry between Adam Brody and Kristen Bell. This is the first time seeing the duo together for some, but the two have cultivated a friendship through working together on various projects.

When looking at the actors' history together, it makes sense that they shine in the Netflix original rom-com. We will look at each time the two have worked together, including their most recent outing for those unfamiliar with Nobody Wants This. We will also let you know where you can stream each project that Adam Brody and Kristen Bell have worked together on.

For decades, Patricia Cornwell’s Scarpetta series has captivated readers with its forensic-heavy approach to crime-solving, anchored by the brilliant and determined Dr. Kay Scarpetta.

Now, the beloved character is finally making her way to the screen, thanks to Prime Video’s highly anticipated adaptation.

With two seasons already greenlit, and stars like Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis taking the lead, Scarpetta is set to bring forensic drama and deeply personal conflicts to life in ways that mirror the novels’ intensity.

From casting news to production details, here’s everything you need to know about this exciting new series based on one of crime fiction’s most iconic characters.

What is Scarpetta About?

The upcoming series Scarpetta focuses on Dr. Kay Scarpetta, a forensic pathologist who returns to her former role as Chief Medical Examiner in Virginia.

Not only does she solve complex murder cases,...

Nobody Wants This creator Erin Foster has addressed criticism surrounding her show's depiction of Jewish characters. Following the Netflix series' premiere on September 26, Glamour published "Netflix's Nobody Wants This and the Persistent Jewish Stereotype," an opinion piece by senior West Coast editor Jessica Radloff. While Radloff enjoyed the series (more on that later), she did take offense to the way Jewish women are portrayed in the romantic comedy: from an unwelcoming mother to the "Jewish trope of controlling/annoying wife who can't stand their other half." Foster, whose real-life romance with now-husband Simon Tikhman loosely inspired the series, recently spoke with the Los Angeles Times regarding the backlash:

"I think we need positive Jewish stories right now. I think it's interesting when people focus on, 'Oh, this is a stereotype of Jewish people,' when you have a rabbi as the lead. A hot, cool, young rabbi who smokes weed.

Ready for a cozy, romantic comedy series? “Nobody Wants This” may be the warm blanket you asked for.

The Netflix series created by Erin Foster follows the unlikely love story between an outspoken, sex podcaster (Kristen Bell) and an upstanding Rabbi (Adam Brody).

Bell and Brody’s tangible chemistry drives the 10-episode rom-com home, making you wish you had more to binge. Breakout sibling performances from Justine Lupe (“Succession”) and Timothy Simons (“Veep”) round out the cast of this lighthearted, will-they-won’t-they romance.

Joanne is an outspoken sex podcaster, who doesn’t believe in God. She gets taken by surprise when she’s seated next to a Rabbi (Brody) at a dinner party, who starts to change her mind. Their unlikely love story begins there.

Hilary Swank has been cast in the upcoming third season of Yellowjackets. According to Deadline, she'll be a recurring guest star with an option to bump up to a series regular should the show get renewed for a fourth season. No details have yet been released as to who Swank will play.

Exclusive: Sosie Bacon, Amanda Righetti, Janet Montgomery, Stephanie Faracy and Mike Vogel (Sex/Life) have joined the recurring cast of Prime Video’s Scarpetta.

They join the previously announced Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis, who will both also executive produce; Bobby Cannavale, Simon Baker, Rosy McEwen, Jake Cannavale and Ariana DeBose.

Based on Patricia Cornwell’s best-selling book series, Scarpetta follows Kay Scarpetta (Kidman), Chief Medical Examiner, as she returns to Virginia and resumes her former position with complex relationships, both personal and professional – including her sister Dorothy (Curtis), with plenty of grudges and secrets to uncover.

Bacon plays Abby Turnball, a prize-winning reporter; Righetti plays Past Dorothy; Montgomery plays Janet, Lucy’s wife; Faracy plays Present Maggie, Scarpetta’s inherited assistant from her predecessor; Vogel plays city attorney Bill Boltz.

The series was officially picked...

A cool young rabbi is on the rise at his temple. He’s single, so members are constantly trying to make love connections with the eligible young Jewish women in their acquaintance. So it’s inconvenient for him when the woman he can’t stop thinking about definitely isn’t Jewish. Can they make things work? Should they even try?

The path to love is rocky indeed for Jake Schram (Ben Stiller) and Anna Riley (Jenna Elfman) in Keeping the Faith, the 2000 feature film debut of director Edward Norton, who also stars as Brian Finn, a Catholic priest who happens to be both Jake’s best friend And hopelessly hung up on Anna.

Evidently, the stresses of interfaith relationships haven’t lessened in the near-quarter-century since Keeping the Faith’s release: now Netflix is premiering a new sitcom with almost exactly the same premise. But considering that we’ve seen...

Netflix's latest rom-com show, Nobody Wants This, starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, pays tribute to the actors' past roles. Best known for their coming-of-age soaps, the two teen drama icons fall in love in Nobody Wants This, a series that's unabashedly romantic but elevates itself above the competition by asking provocative questions. However, at the heart of the series is a traditional narrative of two people finding each other. There are moments when it could go further, but that's not what the show is for. It's idealistic, compelling, and doesn't ask too much from us.

Erin Foster’s untitled upcoming Netflix comedy series has added 10 new actors to its cast, Variety has learned exclusively.

Justine Lupe and Timothy Simons will appear in series regular roles opposite previously announced stars Kristen Bell and Adam Brody.

In addition, Jackie Tohn, Michael Hitchcock, Paul Ben-Victor, Sherry Cola, Shiloh Bearman, Stephanie Faracy, Tania Raymonde, and Tovah Feldshuh have all been cast in recurring guest star roles.

The official logline for the series states it is “centered on the unlikely relationship between an outspoken, agnostic woman, Joanne (Bell), and an unconventional rabbi, Noah (Brody).”

Lupe will star as Morgan, described as Joanne’s “charming-yet-cutting, quick-witted sister who doesn’t feel the need to strive for more than she already has – which happens to be a hit podcast with her sibling, built around their buzzy banter and ride-or-die commitment to being alone together.”

Simons will play Sasha, said to be Noah’s “outlandish,...

Universal has brought on superstar Kevin Hart to star in their comedy reboot of the 1988 comedy The Great Outdoors, which starred Dan Aykroyd and John Candy. This comes just days after news broke that Disney had actually approached Kevin Hart to play the genie in their Aladdin reboot before Will Smith. Kevin Hart will also produce through his Hartbeat Productions alongside Michael De Luca and his production company.

Deadline reports that Randall Green (Billions) has come aboard to write the script, although no details were given about this new version of the story. The original comedy centered on a Chicago family man (John Candy) who takes his wife (Stephanie Faracy) and sons (Chris Young, Ian Giatti) on a lakeshore vacation. Their trip is upended with the surprise arrival of their snobby in-laws (Dan Aykryod and Annette Benning) and their kids (Hilary Gordon and Rebecca Gordon).

Audiences are, by now, used to the R-rated gross-out comedies that feature man-child characters getting into ridiculous, often moronic, situations. It’s a genre that was once box office gold, blending shocking and outrageous scenes with surprisingly sweet sentiment. However Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates takes the concept one step further, fighting for male/female equality through cinema, with not only male characters acting stupid and outrageous, but also the ladies of the cast. Yes, this is an “equal opportunites idiot” movie!

The film follows the titular Mike and Dave, two fun-loving (and, honestly, idiotic) brothers who tend to get out of control at family gatherings.

A sweetly silly trounce of the idea that overgrown frat boys are charming. Shakes up the subgenre in a way remarkably, if perhaps accidentally, feminist. I’m “biast” (pro): nothing

I’m “biast” (con): not a fan of grossout movies (which this looked to be)

(what is this about? see my critic’s minifesto)

The Stangle family is tired of the antics of manchild sons Mike (Adam Devine: Ice Age: Collision Course, The Intern) and Dave (Zac Efon: Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising, We Are Your Friends): they ruin every family gathering with their nonsense, the nature of which typically ends up requiring the assistance of the fire department and/or paramedics. So for daughter Jeanie’s (Sugar Lyn Beard: Aloha (2015), 50/50) wedding to Eric (Sam Richardson: Ghostbusters, Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising), Mom (Stephanie Faracy: #Stuck, The Five-Year Engagement) and Dad (Stephen Root: Trumbo,...
