Adam Brody Gives ‘Nobody Wants This’ Season 2 Update: ‘We’re Shooting in February’
Tired of long turnaround times for your favorite shows? Have no fear, because " Nobody Wants This " is about to go back into production.
While attending an FYC event at Netflix's Tudum Theater in Hollywood, the stars of the hit rom-com, Adam Brody and Kristen Bell, spoke to Variety about what's ahead for their rabbi and gentile podcaster in love .
"We're shooting in February and hopefully they'll have it out by September next year," said Brody of Season 2 .
Bell also went into detail about the new creative team brought in to work with creator Erin Foster now that the first season's executive producer, Steven Levitan, will no longer take an active role.
"We've added some delicious people to the mix, [new showrunners] Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan, which is very exciting," Bell said. "Nothing has been completely decided yet, but the writers have been in it for about a month. The season is roughly boarded out and I'm very happy."
Brody seems to be less interested in how the sausage gets made than getting to cook.
"I want it to be good, and that can take many forms," said Brody to Variety. "I'm not too invested in the twists and turns as long as they're true and smart and fun to play."
On the other hand, Bell knows now that the show has grown such a following they have a lot to prove — especially to one surprising demographic.
"I don't know if someone is tracking this or it's just numbers in my head, but about seven people told me they started watching the show because their dads recommended it," Bell said. "The algorithm is bullseye-ing dads. So late 50s to late 60s men are being targeted. Toto Wolff [CEO of Mercedes in Formula One] told me the other day he loves the show and binged it with his kids. That was definitely out of the blue."
All episodes of "Nobody Wants This" are currently available on Netflix.
