Netflix has confirmed that the popular romcom series — that stars Kristen Bell and Adam Brody as star-crossed lovers Joanne and Noah — has been renewed for another season.
Here’s everything you need to know about Nobody Wants This Season 2…

Yes! As mentioned, Nobody Wants This was renewed for Season 2 on October 11, 2024 — just 15 days after Season 1 was first released.
The show’s creator Erin Foster told Netflix’s Tudum, “I’m so lucky to be able to continue this story.”
When will Nobody Wants This Season 2 be released?
At this stage, there’s no release date for Season 2.
However, Adam Brody told Variety in November 2024, “We’re shooting [Season 2] in February and hopefully they’ll have it out by September next year.”
Jackie Tohn — who plays Noah’s sister-in-law Esther in the series — further confirmed in February 2025 that shooting for the wider cast would commence on March 3, 2025.
Who’s in Nobody Wants This Season 2?
Kristen Bell and Adam Brody will return for the second season of Nobody Wants This.
Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons and Jackie Tohn are also set to return.
And in exciting news, Leighton Meester – of Gossip Girl fame and Adam Brody’s real life wife – will guest star in Season 2.
According to Variety, Leighton will play Abby, a new character described as “Joanne’s middle school nemesis who is now an Instagram mommy influencer.”
Does Nobody Wants This End on a cliffhanger?
If you’re yet to watch Season 1, beware there are spoilers ahead!
The entire first season of Nobody Wants This followed Joanne and Noah, an agnostic woman and a rabbi who, against all the obstacles in their way, fall in love with each other.
As their relationship blossomed, Joanne began considering converting to Judaism — it’s a non-negotiable for Noah that his life-long partner is Jewish.
But in the final episode, Joanne ultimately decided she wasn’t quite ready to convert and so, she and Noah broke up.
In true rom-com style though, in the final moments of the episode, Noah raced after Joanne and the two shared a ridiculously sweet kiss.
“So how does this work?” Joanne then asked Noah… It’s not a huge cliffhanger but it definitely is one.
Thankfully, we’ll find out what happens next for the couple in Nobody Wants This‘ second season.
