Nobody Wants This Season 2 stars Kristen Bell, Adam Brody, Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons, Jackie Tohn,...

Adam Brody says his wife, Leighton Meester, will bring a “wild” energy to the second season of Netflix’s relationship comedy Nobody Wants This, offering an early tease of her guest turn as Abby, a onetime middle-school rival of Kristen Bell’s character who has become a social-media influencer. Meester joins a fall rollout that the streamer has set for October 23, with production on the new season already wrapped.

Season 2 continues the story of Joanne and Noah, an agnostic podcaster and a Los Angeles rabbi navigating family pressures and religious differences after a late-season reconciliation. Alongside returning leads Bell and Brody, the show adds Miles Fowler as Lenny, plus recurring turns from Alex Karpovsky and Arian Moayed. New leadership is in place behind the scenes, with Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan joining as showrunners.

One thing is clear from the response to Netflix’s Nobody Wants This, and that is the fact that the reverse of the title is very true.

Thus, the renewal of the series for a second season, which has already added some extra star power in the form of new characters and cast members. After the first season of the show arrived on Netflix in Sept. 2024, there will be a bit of a wait for the next installment.

Has Nobody Wants This Season 2 started production?

2012 was a different time. Barack Obama was the U.S. President, "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen and "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye (featuring Kimbra) topped the Billboard charts, and "Gangnam Style" was, like, a thing. Also, "Girls," the comedy series created and helmed by writer, director, and actor Lena Dunham, stared airing on HBO and inspired literal decades of discourse.

Dunham is returning to the small screen with Netflix's new original series "Too Much," which premieres on July 10 — and in a feature in Variety, she admitted that she would consider a revival of "Girls" (sort of like the "Sex and the City" reboot "...And Just Like That," except hopefully a "Girls" reboot would be good). It would be tricky, though.

"If we had something to say that was really specific and it was a moment in their lives where we felt like revisiting it...

Lena Dunham said she now understands why the lack of diversity on her hit HBO show Girls was “really disappointing to people.”

The coming-of-age comedy-drama, which ran for six seasons from 2012 to 2017, was previously criticized for its characters not accurately representing New York City’s diverse population. The creator and star defended the series in 2012, saying she’s “half-Jew, half-wasp” and wanted to avoid “tokenism in casting.”

More than a decade after Girls first premiered, Dunham recently reflected on the show, telling The Independent, “I think one of the profound issues around Girls was that there was so little real estate for women in television that if you had a show called Girls, which is such a monolithic name, it sounds like it’s describing all the girls in all the places. And so if it’s not reflecting a multitude of experiences, I understand how that would be really disappointing to people.

Erin Foster’s runaway hit comedy series Nobody Wants This had Netflix viewers falling head over heels in love with the Irl meet-cute romance between agnostic podcaster Joanne (Kristen Bell) and Rabbi Noah Roklov (Adam Brody). For Foster, who loosely based the show on the story of meeting her own husband, heading into Season 2 meant continuing to weave in true-life experiences that resonate with audiences, in collaboration with new showrunners Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan of Girls fame. The cast also has some new additions, including Brody’s wife Leighton Meester (The Buccaneers), Girls alum Alex Karpovsky, Miles Fowler (A Man on the Inside) and Adrian Moayed (Succession). Here, Foster talks about what we can expect from the next installment set for release October 23, where the action will pick back up and what we’ll see of Meester and Brody on screen together.

Deadline: How has it been being...

After months of speculation, the Season 2 premiere date of Netflix's hit romantic comedy, Nobody Wants This, has been revealed. And it's exactly when we thought it might be — the streamer just waited for the Kristen Bell and Adam Brody-starring show to have its For Your Consideration moment in order to announce it officially. The show's executive producers and cast made the premiere date known on Sunday on stage at Netflix's Fysee Emmy event celebrating Season 1 in Los Angeles.

In news that was also revealed via press release (but we first saw in The Hollywood Reporter), Nobody Wants This will see its Season 2 premiere on October 23, 2025. It's an exciting development for fans of the series, which hit the streaming service in late 2024 but became an instant success thanks to its likable cast and fantastic writing. In a world that tends to under-serve and under-appreciate romantic comedies, Nobody Wants This is a gift.

Netflix’s critically acclaimed relationship comedy Nobody Wants This will kick off season two on Thursday, October 23, 2025. Kristen Bell and Adam Brody return to star, reprising their roles as Joanne and Noah.

Returning cast members also include Justine Lupe as Morgan, Timothy Simons as Sasha, and Jackie Tohn as Esther. Season two guest stars include Leighton Meester as Abby, Joanne’s middle school nemesis who is now an Instagram mommy influencer; Miles Fowler as Lenny, Noah’s Matzah Ballers teammate who gets set up with Morgan; and Alex Karpovsky as Big Noah, an overly confident rabbi at Noah’s temple.

Arian Moayed guest stars as Dr. Andy, a charming, highly regarded (particularly by himself) psychotherapist who might just be the perfect match for Morgan.

Nobody Wants This is a show we did want. The Netflix series was a top 10 show in 89 countries, and spent six weeks in Netflix's global English top 10. 57 million views later, after the series was released last September tell us the title of the series is quite ironic.

If you have not yet dived into the show, the plot follows an agnostic podcast host (Joanne) who meets a rabbi (Noah) and the two begin a relationship. While the personal views cause them to naturally disagree about some things, their families are not overly helpful either.

The families don't always intentionally cause problems, but they tend to anyway. The show is a romantic comedy after all, so pratfalls will be had and had often.

According to Netflix, the cast of Nobody Wants This announced that season 2 debuts on Thursday, Oct. 23 during Netflix's Fysee LA Emmy Event.

The cast was on hand yesterday to announce the premiere date at an Emmys event at the the Academy Museum in Los Angeles.

Nobody Wants This Season 1 was a major hit for Netflix. The rom-com series starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody was instantly successful, kicking off a new series of rom-com films and shows.

Nobody Wants This premiered with a near-perfect score, and just a few weeks after its premiere, it scored a renewal for Season 2. The rom-com series, created by Erin Foster, followed an agnostic, loud woman who co-hosts a sex podcast, and falls in love with a rabbi. Now, it's been revealed that Season 2 will officially premiere on Netflix on Oct. 23, 2025. The news was announced on the stage at Netflix's Fysee LA Emmy Event at the Academy Museum in Los Angeles on Sunday.

After ten romance-filled episodes, filled with uncertainty about Joanne and Noah's relationship, the series culminated with Miriam's bat mitzvah, where Joanne and her sister Morgan crash the party. While Joanne tells Noah she wants to convert to Judaism,...

Joanne (Kristen Bell) and Noah’s (Adam Brody) budding romance continues in Season 2 of “Nobody Wants This,” which is set to premiere globally Oct. 23 on Netflix. The release date was announced by the cast and crew at an Emmys FYC event for the show’s first season.

Loosely inspired by the real-life story of creator Erin Foster, the first season followed the unlikely pairing between an agnostic outspoken podcaster and an unconventional rabbi after meeting at a dinner party. After 10 episodes of exploring the couple’s on-and-off again romance, the Season 1 finale concluded with an uncertain future between the duo after Joanne revealed she wasn’t ready to convert to Judaism.

The original Season 1 cast will return alongside a few new additions. Leighton Meester will guest star as Abby, an Instagram mommy influencer and Joanne’s childhood nemesis. Miles Fowler, Alex Karpovsky and Arian Moayed will also appear in the upcoming season.

“Nobody Wants This” will be returning to Netflix this fall.

Netflix know that a lot of somebodies want this. The second season of “Nobody Wants This” will premiere October 23. The show first dropped on the streamer last September to sparkling reviews, with IndieWire’s Proma Khosla praising the chemistry between leads Kristen Bell and Adam Brody.

The show, created by Erin Foster, finds Joanne and Noah (Brody) in a would-be conventional love story complicated by Noah’s position as a rabbi. Popular podcaster Joanne isn’t just not Jewish, she’s also unreligious generally — as is her entire non-traditional family. As Noah and Joanne attempt to acclimate to each other’s worlds, and Joanne explores converting, things get complicated — to put it lightly.

Netflix's hit comedy, the Adam Brody and Kristen Bell-starring Nobody Wants This, is well into production on the series' second installment. And, given the popularity of the "loosely based on a true story" tale from Erin Foster, it's probably no surprise to anyone that the streaming service is eyeing an Asap release date for Season 2. With production slated to wrap in April of this year, it seems as though a primetime, fall release date is a given for the popular series.

According to the blog What's On Netflix, the streamer is allegedly eyeing an October 2025 premiere date for the show's second season. Which will no doubt be music to the ears of the users who helped contribute to Nobody Wants This amassing approximately 56.8 million views in 2024 alone. While Netflix has yet to confirm anything, we would not be surprised if it makes all of this official when they...

Deli Boys season 2 gets an encouraging update from executive producer Jenni Konner. Created by Abdullah Saeed, the story centers on two Pakistani-American brothers after the death of their father and the unveiling of his criminal enterprise.

The cast of Deli Boys includes Asif Ali, Saagar Shaikh, Poorna Jagannathan, Alfie Fuller, and Brian George.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Konner was asked about whether there are plans for Deli Boys season 2. Although the executive producer noted that it is too early to say and that there wasn't a “huge mega-plan” for what could come next, she did note that the first installment ends on a cliffhanger. In the quote below, Konner encouragingly mentions there are some ideas the writers’ room might turn to if the crime comedy is renewed:

Exclusive: Beverly Hills-based management and production company, Underground, has bolstered its team with the addition of Aaron Folbe as Manager, Deadline has learned.

Folbe joins after a little over two years at Industry Entertainment, where he served as Lit Coordinator. In his new role, he will continue to focus on supporting and developing the careers of writers, directors, and performers.

Folbe’s new role comes shortly following a major win for his clients Adam and Daniel Cooper, who in June sold their short story “I Used To Eat Brains, Now I Eat Kale” to Amazon MGM Studios for feature development, with Ryan Gosling and his production company General Admission attached to produce. Folbe took on the Cooper twins as clients before his time at Industry Entertainment — while serving as an assistant at Artists First — and closed the deal in between his exit from that company and his Underground hire.

Exclusive: Director Sam Neave (The Jinx: Part Two) and Academy Award-winning producer Charles B. Wessler (Green Book) commenced production in May on a feature-length doc surrounding the Scottish football club, Partick Thistle.

Neave’s documentary will follow Partick Thistle Fc and its fans during the 2024-2025 season as they attempt to gain promotion back into the Premiership, the top division of the Scottish Professional Football League, having been relegated to play in lower divisions at the end of the 2017-2018 season.

Partick Thistle stands out compared to many other clubs as more than 70% is owned by the fanbase, who have been making strides to improve the club’s stability and competitiveness in the Spfl without the financial support of a high-net-worth owner. The documentary will examine football fandom and what it means to be passionate about a club that doesn’t always deliver results.

Girls (Max & Prime Video Add-On) Credit – HBO

Girls is a comedy-drama series created by Lena Dunham. The HBO series follows the story of four young women as they try to follow their passions in New York after finishing college.

This year marks 30 years since Bob Byington’s first feature, though it’s only during the last 15 of those — since SXSW midnight-movie breakout “Rso: Registered Sex Offender” — that the Austin-based director has enjoyed “indie darling” status. During that same stretch, the cultural discourse has changed a great deal, while Byington’s voice remains remarkably (if somewhat frustratingly) consistent, churning out self-deprecating feature-length sitcoms about flaccid man-babies. Those aren’t the kind of movies American festivals are looking for so much anymore, which could explain why his latest, “Lousy Carter,” wound up premiering abroad, at the Locarno Film Festival.

Locarno’s programmers typically gravitate toward austere, experimental and/or formally audacious works of cinema. “Lousy Carter” is none of these things, but neither is it lousy. That unfortunate moniker belongs to the film’s lead character, a lumpy failed animator turned tenured literature professor, who’s rendered all the more pathetic...

A version of this story about the designers behind “Angelyne,” “Impeachment: American Crime Story” and “Pam & Tommy” first appeared in the Down to the Wire: Drama issue of TheWrap’s awards magazine.

A nostalgic look in the rearview mirror is nothing new for television creators. But it is unusual when so many mine the same era, in this case reframing controversial personalities and events from the recent past. The frenetic landscape of the 1980s smashing directly into the 1990s was omnipresent in three different limited series: Peacock’s “Angelyne,” FX’s “Impeachment: American Crime Story” and Hulu’s “Pam & Tommy”. They not only provided viewers with a satisfying reintroduction to the excesses of those decades, but also gave their leading female characters a dissecting reevaluation. And the designers on all three projects were vital to the series’ success.
