Starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, Nobody Wants This immediately became everyone's favourite new drama.

On October 10th, Netflix confirmed that Nobody Wants This season 2 is happening. The show was so popular that it was renewed just two weeks after season 1 came out on Netflix.

As for future seasons, both Kristen Bell and Adam Brody have told Rolling Stone that they would play Joanne and Noah "til [their] faces fall off".

When does Nobody Wants This season 2 come out?

We'll have to wait until production is complete before we know exactly when Nobody Wants This season 2 comes out. However, filming is set to start on March 3, 2025 with season 2 due to come out later this year. Season 1 came out in September 2024 so our bet is that season 2 will be out in time for the 2025 holidays.

Like season 1, we imagine that season 2 would also have ten 20-30 minutes episodes.

Who is in the Nobody Wants This season 2 cast?

Based on the fact that no one dies or moves away in Nobody Wants This season 1, all the main cast will be back for more romantic antics in Nobody Wants This season 2. Gossip Girl icon and Adam Brody's real-life wife Leighton Meester is also joining the cast alongside Bottoms actor Miles Fowler.

Who will Leighton Meester play in Nobody Wants This?

For anyone excited to see Leighton on screen with Adam, she will play "Joanne’s middle school nemesis who is now an Instagram mommy influencer". Leighton's character is called Abby and it's unclear if she will cross paths with Adam's character Noah or just Joanne.

As for Miles Fowler's new character Lenny, he's Noah’s |Matzah Ballers teammate who gets set up with Morgan".

Nobody Wants This season 2 plot: What will happen?

Nobody Wants This season 1 ends with Noah getting an offer to become head Rabbi and this leads Joanne to realise that she can't convert to Judaism just because she loves Noah. She tells Noah that they have to split but Noah then comes running after Joanne and says he wants to be with her more than anything else.

So does this mean Noah will step down as head Rabbi? Well Nobody Wants This creator Erin Foster has told Vulture that season 2 would focus on Joanne's conversion to Judaism. In other words, Noah will likely take the position and Joanne will ultimately decide to convert to Judaism for herself.

With Noah's mother actively disapproving of Noah and Joanne's relationship, we imagine season 2 will be anything but plain sailing for our favourite couple. And what about Morgan and Sasha? The possibilities are endless.
