**LOS ANGELES, CA** – Actors Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, known for their roles in teen dramas like *Veronica Mars* and *The O.C.*, have teamed up once again for a new Netflix rom-com, *Nobody Wants This*. The series, based on Erin Foster’s semi-autobiographical experiences, explores the complexities of love, faith, and family.
Bell and Brody play Joanne, a podcast host, and Noah, an unconventional Los Angeles rabbi, who fall for each other at a mutual friend’s dinner party. While the pair are instantly attracted, their differing lifestyles, families, and levels of commitment create a unique and nuanced dynamic.
“I think one of the beautiful parts about this show is, it’s trying to show something real and entertaining,” says Bell. “This show is more experiential in a very realistic way, because I love the fact that [the characters] are not 20-somethings. I have so many friends that are 38, that are in this position of, ‘How do I date? Should I settle down?’ So this show is more of an experience than a statement.”
Brody adds, “The show subverts the stereotype of what a rabbi looks like. He’s a young guy on the dating scene, and [Joanne] first realizes he’s a rabbi when he’s exhaling pot smoke.”
While the show focuses on a modern take on love and relationships, it also delves into the complexities of faith and personal beliefs. Bell, who grew up in a Jewish community, and Brody, an atheist, discuss their own experiences with religion and its role in their personal lives.
*Nobody Wants This* is a charming and relatable rom-com that explores the messy and often challenging realities of finding love and building a relationship in the modern age. The series is currently available for streaming on Netflix.
