The first season of Nobody Wants This ended with rabbi Noah (Adam Brody) and podcaster Joanne sharing a romantic kiss in a parking zone after leaving a bat mitzvah. You know, basic rom-com stuff. While there are nonetheless loads of obstacles in the best way of their love, Netflix has renewed the Erin Foster-created sequence for Season 2 — leaving a number of time to discover these street blocks.
“Creating Nobody Wants This will forever be a career highlight for me,” Foster advised Netflix. “The incredible cast, crew, producers, and executives all made this into the show it is today, and to experience viewers’ reactions to this series now that it’s out in the world has been more than anything I could have dreamed.”
Joining the workforce as govt producers and showrunners for Season 2 are Jenni Konner (Girls) and Bruce Eric Kaplan (Girls, No Good Deed, Six Feet Under), and Nora Silver (Deli Boys, Welcome to Chippendales, Single Drunk Female) is on board as an govt producer.
“I’m so lucky to be able to continue this story,” mentioned Foster, “and to do it alongside Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan, who I’ve been such a fan of since Girls. … Justice for healthy relationships being the most romantic!”
Season 1 noticed the lovebirds fall for one another rapidly, however the truth that Joanne is not Jewish was a serious complication for a rabbi. While Joanne thought-about changing, she admitted she wasn’t fairly able to decide to that course of simply but. It appeared that the duo must go their separate methods, however Noah’s grand gesture within the parking zone confirmed that he’s not prepared to surrender on their love — and neither is she.
Brody tells Tudum that he interpreted the ending as Noah promising Joanne, “I put you first. Everything else will work itself out, but I’m saying that you are my priority.”
Of course, “everything else” is loads. The cultural variations between the 2 are huge, and Joanne isn’t essentially beloved by Noah’s close-knit household. “In the light of day, will he still feel that way? I don’t know,” Brody provides. “It’s an open question.”
Luckily, Season 2 can dig into that stress because the duo determine to commit — or not.
“I think that’s what the show can explore,” Brody says. “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.”
New showrunners Konner and Kaplan described their new gig as a “dream,” with Konner including, (*2*)
