As someone who has been following this captivating series since its inception, I must admit that the upcoming season of “Nobody Wants This” has me utterly thrilled! The dynamics between the characters, particularly Rebecca and Joanne, promise to unveil layers that we haven’t yet explored.
Nobody Wants This is getting a Season 2 – and this is what we know so far.
2024’s Netflix lineup has been a thrilling rollercoaster ride, bringing back familiar favorites such as Love Is Blind Season 7 and the provocative Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. Over the past few months, the streaming platform has kept us on our toes with an abundance of fresh content. In September alone, we were treated to the heartwarming rom-com Nobody Wants This featuring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, which has become a fan favorite.
The popular Netflix series, centered around an agnostic podcast host discussing sex and a rabbi who develop a romantic relationship, swiftly climbed to the top of the Netflix rankings, captivating viewers everywhere with its irresistible charm. Naturally, fans are eagerly awaiting Season 2, but what exactly can we expect in terms of release date and returning cast members? Here’s what we know so far.
(Spoilers from Season 1 of Nobody Wants This ahead!)
What Is The Nobody Wants This Season 2 Release Date?
As I pen this down in October 2024, there’s no confirmed air date yet, but we’re excited to share that Season 2 of “Nobody Wants This” is expected to return in 2025 as part of the upcoming 2025 TV premiere lineup.
As a devoted fan, I was thrilled to learn from Netflix’s recent Tudum update that the captivating tale I’ve been following will continue its journey next year!
2025 looks set to be an incredibly significant year for Netflix, with numerous beloved series returning to our screens. Among them are the third installment of “Ginny & Georgia,” the concluding season of “You,” and the much-anticipated final season of “Stranger Things.” Moreover, I have a strong feeling that “Nobody Wants This” will be an excellent addition to this impressive lineup. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for its second season, hoping it receives the recognition and attention it deserves when it returns.
The Nobody Wants This Season 2 Cast
Given that Season 2 of “Nobody Wants This” has been recently announced, it’s too early to confirm the cast. However, based on previous developments, characters like Bell and Brody are likely to reappear. Here is a list of actors who featured in the first season, and we eagerly anticipate their return:
- Kristen Bell as Joanne
- Adam Brody as Noah Roklov
- Justine Lupe as Morgan
- Timothy Simons as Sasha Roklov
- Stephanie Faracy as Lynn
- Tovah Feldshuh as Bina Roklov
- Paul Ben-Victor as Ilan Roklov
- Jackie Tohn as Esther Roklov
- Emily Arlook as Rebecca
- Sherry Cola as Ashley
- Shiloh Bearman as Miriam Roklov
- Stephen Tobolowsky as Rabbi Cohen
Without a doubt, the cast for this show is exceptionally gifted, boasting stars from “Succession” and comedians, among others. The result was an incredibly funny romantic comedy series that left us eagerly anticipating Season 2.
How Nobody Wants This Season 1 Ended
As we’re still awaiting official updates regarding Season 2, it remains a mystery what the storyline will entail. However, insights from the creators in interviews and quotes suggest that the show may continue along a certain path following the conclusion of Season 1, titled “Nobody Wants This“. Let’s dive in and explore further!
Noah Picks Joanne, But That Doesn’t Mean It’s Smooth Sailing
The primary focus of “Nobody Wants This” appears to be the dynamic between Noah and Joanne, a connection that mirrors those found in popular romantic comedies. Despite Joanne’s honesty towards Noah at the climax, expressing her appreciation for Judaism but uncertainty about conversion, she expresses reluctance to impose an unfair burden on him. If she were to stumble, it could potentially shatter his entire world.
Ultimately, Noah reveals at the end that he can’t have two hearts – instead, he chooses her, adding a touch of warmth to an ending that could have been painful. Yet, it’s important to remember that every relationship requires effort, and it seems like Season 2 will delve deeper into that aspect.
Indeed, the Tudum piece reveals that Noah’s character, Brody, discusses the depth of their relationship in Season 2. He also mentions the amount each character is prepared to give up to be together, as the underlying tension between them remains a key element.
I think that’s what the show can explore. What should he do? What should she do? What version of sacrifice is worth it? What constitutes growth, or what constitutes dimming yourself to be with someone else? It’s a sacrifice, but ideally, you grow together and you’re better for it — you don’t have to [lop] off a limb.
Esther Knows That Sasha And Morgan Are Talking – But Season 2 Will Most Likely Answer Questions About Their Potential Romantic Relationship
In Season 1 of Nobody Wants This, there’s a significant aspect involving the sibling dynamics between characters like Sasha (Noah’s brother) and Morgan (Joanne’s sister). Their conversations often hint at something romantic, yet nothing is officially declared. However, it’s important to note that Sasha is married to Esther, and she’s aware of their recent chats.
There are numerous unanswered questions regarding all three characters at present. However, the series creator, Erin Foster, revealed during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter in October 2024, that Season 2 will delve into the potential romantic relationship between Sasha and Morgan.
We plan to move past the ambiguous “romantic” aspect between the characters in the next season, focusing instead on having them interact more frequently. This is because we’re keen on featuring Esther and want to create scenes where all characters are present together. We’ve explored that angle enough at this point, so now we’ll adjust our approach to avoid portraying Morgan as a complete homewrecker. However, rest assured, we have something exciting lined up for Morgan in the new season!
From the interview, it’s clear that Esther will play a larger role in Season 2, with her character becoming a series regular, as confirmed by Foster. Similarly, Jackie Tohn will also be a regular on the show.
Without a doubt, Esther will be a recurring character in the second season. We absolutely adore Jackie; she’s a delightful actress. She truly brought some engaging and complex elements to Esther’s role.
Rebecca And Joanne Have A Talk, And We Get To See Just How Important Being A Rabbi’s Wife Is
Rebecca had nearly tied the knot with Noah at one point, but he ended their engagement. Throughout the series, we witness her encounters with Joanne and the entire cast following Noah’s termination of their relationship, as they frequently clash. However, towards the final episodes, Rebecca and Joanne engage in a heartfelt conversation about the significance of being a Rabbi’s wife, which ultimately prompts Joanne to make her choice.
Additionally, it provides a glimpse into aspects of Rebecca beyond her desire for marriage, delving further into her personality. In the THR interview, Foster hinted at Season 2 delving deeper into Rebecca’s character, as we have barely scratched the surface so far.
In the finale, you’ll gain a deeper insight into her character. You’ll grasp her challenges better and feel a stronger connection to her. Moving forward, our aim remains the same: to delve deeper, not to respond to criticism.
So far, I’m just here for whatever they do in Season 2, and I’m ready for it.
The Creator Already Has Ideas For Season 3
Looking forward to the upcoming Season 2, it’s worth noting that Erin Foster has hinted at having plans beyond that for future seasons. Interestingly, in a previous THR article, she mentioned that she has concepts ready for the following season, which would further develop the series’ narrative.
I’m eager to continue working for as long as it lasts, since there are plenty of stories yet to share. It’s amusing because, as writers, we’ve been brainstorming storylines and finding ourselves saying, “This is for season three, this is for season three.” We’ve even considered presenting a board detailing our ideas for season three all at once due to the abundance of concepts we have.
This show seems like it has a lot of potential for longevity, so I’m eager to watch how the story unfolds over time.
Jenni Konner And Bruce Eric Kaplan Are Joining As Showrunners
It appears that the situation for the showrunner role is experiencing some changes. According to Tudum, the original showrunner, Foster, will now be joined by two more showrunners, Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan. Additionally, a new executive producer, Nora Silver, has also been added to the team.
During an interview with THR, Foster explained that the primary cause for the hurried pace of Season 1 was due to the writer’s strike and its impact on the scripting process. For Season 2, however, she expressed a desire to employ a distinct method for crafting the narrative.
During the writers’ strike, our workspace turned into a whirlwind of chaos. We unfortunately lost some writers along the way. Although this wasn’t an entirely unexpected event since it had happened before, it still presented a significant hurdle in our ongoing projects. For season two, we needed to establish a new approach and determine its shape. During this time, I found myself concentrating more on maintaining the voice of the show and its writing.
Foster continued to say that she was happy to have them come on and help the process.
As a hardcore gamer, I can’t contain my excitement for Season 2 of Nobody Wants This! The year 2025 feels like it’s an eternity away, but I can’t wait to dive back into this thrilling world and unravel the mysteries that lie ahead.
