Netflix has announced that Nobody Wants This Season 2 will premiere globally on October 23, 2025. The release date was revealed during an Emmys FYC event for the show’s first season.
The romantic comedy series stars Kristen Bell as Joanne and Adam Brody as Noah. Season 1 followed their unexpected relationship — between an outspoken, agnostic podcaster and an unconventional rabbi — after a chance meeting at a dinner party.
The season ended on an uncertain note when Joanne admitted she wasn’t ready to convert to Judaism.
Season 2 will bring back the original cast, with Leighton Meester joining as a guest star playing Abby, an Instagram influencer and Joanne’s childhood rival. Other new cast members include Miles Fowler, Alex Karpovsky, and Arian Moayed.
The show, created by Erin Foster and loosely based on her real-life experiences, became a hit after debuting in September 2024.
Foster returns as executive producer alongside her sister Sara Foster, with Nora Silver, Jenni Konner, and Bruce Eric Kaplan joining as executive producers and showrunners for the new season.
