UPDATED: Netflix has dropped the official trailer for Nobody Wants This, its upcoming comedy series from Erin Foster, starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody.
In Nobody Wants This, an agnostic podcast host and an unconventional rabbi on the rebound walk into a party. When they walk out — together — the unlikely pair, Joanne (Bell) and Noah (Brody), can tell there is something between them. But also potentially between them, with their differing outlooks on life, all of the modern obstacles to love, and their sometimes well-meaning, sometimes sabotaging families — including her sister Morgan (Justin Lupe) and his brother Sasha (Timothy Simons).
Cast also includes Justine Lupe, Stephanie Faracy, Tovah Feldshuh, Paul Ben-Victor, Michael Hitchcock, Jackie Tohn, Sherry Cola and Shiloh Bearman.
Watch on Deadline
Nobody Wants This premieres September 26 on Netflix. Check out the trailer above.
PREVIOUS, May 15: Netflix’s upcoming comedy series from Erin Foster, starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody, has gotten a title, release date and a first-look photo. FKA Untitled Erin Foster Show, the series is now titled Nobody Wants This. It’s slated to premiere on the streamer September 26. You can see a first-look photo of Bell and Brody above. Netflix Chief Content Officer Bela Bajaria announced the news Wednesday during the streamer’s Upfront presentation in New York City.
Nobody Wants This is a comedy centered on the unlikely relationship between an outspoken, agnostic woman, Joanne (Bell), and an unconventional rabbi, Noah (Brody).
“This show is based on the only good decision I ever made: falling for a nice Jewish boy,’ Foster said in a statement to Tudum. “But I realized that being happy is way harder than being miserable (there’s nothing to complain about). So, I created this show based on all the ways that finding the right person can be so hard. Nobody Wants This, but we do, and that’s all that matters.”
Cast also includes Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons, Stephanie Faracy, Tovah Feldshuh, Paul Ben-Victor, Michael Hitchcock, Jackie Tohn, Sherry Cola and Shiloh Bearman.
Additional, Emily Arlook (Grown-ish) joins in a recurring role in a recasting as Rebecca, Noah’s “perfect” Jewish girlfriend who has done “everything right” to get him to propose.
Foster serves as creator and co-showrunner with Craig DiGregorio. Foster and DiGregorio executive produce with Steven Levitan, Kristen Bell, Sara Foster, Danielle Stokdyk, Jeff Morton and Jack Burditt. Oly Obst is executive producer for 3arts. The series is produced for Netflix by 20th Television in association with Steven Levitan Productions.
