Kristen Bell, Adam Brody Return

The sun starts to set on the honeymoon phase for Kristen Bell and Adam Brody in the Season Two trailer for Nobody Wants This. The rom-com series returns to Netflix on Oct. 23 with the ultimate test of faith as their characters, Joanne, the filterless sex podcaster, and Noah, the rabbi, start building on the somewhat shaky foundation of their relationship.

“Part of being in a relationship is dealing with these issues, and we will,” Noah attempts to assure Joanne in the preview. She replies, “I feel like we’ve been saying that a lot lately.” They’ve only just started integrating friend groups, families, and the more complicated challenge of blending their faiths. When Joanne mentions during a dinner party that they’re “going to do the whole interfaith thing,” Noah is clearly not on the same page.

“I think that’s what the show can explore,” Brody told Netflix TUDUM. “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.”

Bell shared similar sentiments in an interview with Rolling Stone last year, saying, “I liked the real-life complexity of a girl who doesn’t really know how to have a good date because she’s a self-sabotager [being] with a ‘good boy,’ where the world around him doesn’t necessarily approve of this relationship, and then figuring out if and how they can make it work.”

Nobody Wants This Season Two will also feature Timothy Simons, Jackie Tohn, Stephanie Faracy, Michael Hitchcock, Tovah Feldshuh, Paul Ben-Victor, Emily Arlook, Sherry Cola, and Shiloh Berman. Guest stars for Season 2 include Leighton Meester, Miles Fowler, Alex Karpovsky, and Arian Moayed.
