About Nobody Wants This
Loosely based on the real-life story of creator Erin Foster, the first season focused on the unlikely pairing between Joanne, an outspoken podcaster and an unconventional rabbi, Noah, who meet at a dinner party. With their on-and-off relationship explored throughout the season, it concluded on an uncertain note after Joanne revealed that she wasn't ready to convert to Judaism.
The second season is expected to pick up on the events that follow up between the couple. The original cast, along with several new faces, will join the second season. While Timothy Simons, Jackie Tohn, Stephanie Faracy, Michael Hitchcock, Tovah Feldshuh, Paul Ben-Victor, Emily Arlook, Sherry Cola and Shiloh Berman will form the main cast, guest stars like Leighton Meester, Miles Fowler, Alex Karpovsky and Arian Moayed will also make an appearance this time.
In a conversation with Rolling Stone, Brody and Bell shared why they wanted to bring back another season. 'Rom-coms leaned into simplicity for a while and the reason I liked this one is there are some very complex issues at play that do harken back to Romeo and Juliet, where you want them so badly to be together, you want the world to disappear for them," Bell shared.
The rom-com series was renewed not long after its premiere in September 2024.

According to industry insiders, she is currently reviewing an offer to headline the upcoming series Secret Audit. The news has sparked buzz among fans and drama watchers. About the Secret Audit Secret Audit is shaping up to be a unique fusion of office comedy and passionate romance. The story centers around Noh Ki Joon. He is a top-tier audit officer at a major corporation who gets demoted and reassigned as the company's 'morality manager.' The female lead, Joo In Ah, is the head of the audit department with a mysterious past and sharp instincts. Her job puts her at the center of all internal affairs, including tracking workplace relationships. She monitors the personal and romantic entanglements of employees —a task that's as messy as it's awkward. The relationship between these two characters, both wrapped in secrecy and professionalism, sets the stage for an interesting romantic tension. Gong Myung is currently being courted for the role of Noh Ki Joon. Meanwhile, Shin Hye Sun is under consideration for the role of Joo In Ah. The potential pairing has already sparked curiosity about the chemistry they could bring to the screen. Casting still in progress As of now, Secret Audit remains in the early casting phase. The drama has yet to confirm its broadcasting channel or official release timeline.

In the series, she plays Kim Sa Ra, a skilled con artist who creates fake luxury brands to deceive the wealthy elite. Co-starring Lee Jun Hyuk as Moo Kyung, a man determined to uncover her real identity, the drama is expected to bring a mix of suspense, charm, and deception.

Mountainhead movie review: Like watching the BTS of a Nikhil Kamath podcast, HBO's Succession successor punches up at plutocracy
When Nikhil Kamath interviewed Ranbir Kapoor on his podcast, he admitted that he hasn't quite figured out the art of detachment like Marcus Aurelius. 'You like Marcus' writing?' Kapoor asked. 'Yes, I like a couple of his books,' Kamath said. This bizarre exchange deserves to be unpacked in a separate article, but, for the purposes of this one, let's focus on two things. One, the Zerodha founder reads the work of a Roman emperor in his spare time, and two, the star of Jagga Jasoos probably thinks they were talking about someone who wrote a self-help bestseller. Several conversations of this nature unfold in Mountainhead, the new film from Jesse Armstrong, creator of HBO's Succession. Marcus Aurelius is invoked as well; in fact, so are Mark Antony and other great historical figures. The movie follows four men — three billionaires and one millionaire — who get together in a snowy mountain retreat for a weekend getaway, while the 'outside world' descends into chaos. 'No deals, no meals, no women in heels,' is the motto of the get-together, which seems like something of a tradition. Steve Carell plays a veteran named Randall, who has just received a disheartening cancer diagnosis. Corey Michael Smith, who was so good in May December and Saturday Night, plays Ven, the owner of a Twitter-like social media app. He's the richest man in the room. Ramy Youssef plays Jeff, whose company is making waves in the field of artificial intelligence, and Jason Schwartzman plays Souper, who feels insecure about being the only person whose net worth hasn't hit a billion yet. Also read – Don't Look Up movie review: Leonardo DiCaprio leads a galaxy of stars in Netflix's sharp satire While the agenda is to have no agenda, the four men arrive at Souper's snowy chalet with ulterior motives. Ven wants to acquire Jeff's company so that he can curb the spread of disinformation on his platform — not because he's an altruistic hero, but because he wants to avoid accountability. Randall wants Ven to consider starting work on uploading human consciousness onto computers, mainly to prolong his own life; Souper, on the other hand, plans on pitching his meditation app to the others. Each of them is petty, vindictive, self-centred — sort of like the characters in Succession. Jeff is the only one who seems concerned about the anarchy unfolding outside; much of the violence has been demonstrably incited by the disinformation being spread on Ven's app. The news says that 400 people were burned alive in a riot-like situation in Gujarat. There's violence in Azerbaijan, in Turkey, in regions all around the world. Ven keeps trying to deflect blame, pretending like this is the best advertisement for his app that he could've asked for. Things get real when he receives a call from the President, who gives him a slap on the wrist for his (significant) role in causing the global catastrophe. Jeff, meanwhile, knows that he's sitting on the cure for this disease. His AI system can sift through the fake news and provide real-time fact-checks. Unsurprisingly, his net worth sky-rockets over the weekend, much to Randall's chagrin. Mountainhead is like watching the BTS for one of Kamath's day-long podcasts, as if it were shot by a Stanley Kubrick devotee. It doesn't take the four men too long to plan a global takeover; Souper, it is decided, will become President of Argentina. He's delighted. Like Randall and Ven, he views this as an opportunity for humankind to 'evolve'. They actually view themselves as Roman emperors introducing the masses to the idea of civilisation. Nero fiddled while Rome burned; Souper, on the other hand, keeps talking about snacks. Through much of the movie, Schwartzman plays him like a needy tag-along who's used to being picked last during sports period. His significant wealth is basically loose change when compared to the fortunes that the other three are sitting on. For the most part, Mountainhead feels like an extended episode of Succession — directed by Armstrong himself, the narrative is photographed through long lenses, which, like it did in the HBO show, gives the impression that you're looking at zoo animals from a distance. The writing, as expected, is as sharp as anything that Armstrong has done before — besides Succession, he also worked on The Thick of It, Four Lions, and Veep. Most of the humour in Mountainhead is directed at the insecure personalities of the four men. Not a single punch is thrown — although, at one point, Randall drops a bowling ball on someone — but these dudes inflict more violence (upon more people) than Unni Mukundan did in Marco.

The zinger-a-minute dialogue remains intact, but the satire makes way for farce. Randall continues quoting historical figures, Ven plays with his baby by putting it on the floor and looking at it from a distance, Souper does just about anything to feel included; people fall over each other in a comical fashion. The glaring cynicism on display will make Mountainhead almost impossible to watch for the sort of folks who follow Elon Musk on social media and consume portfolios for breakfast; the sort of folks who follow Finance with Sharan for investment advice and watch BeerBiceps to learn about geopolitics. But Mountainhead is a movie that understands the absurdity of existence; a 2 GB data plan can sometimes be more dangerous than a nuclear warhead.

Last Updated: Gurmeet Choudhary revealed a robbery at his Mumbai home by a new domestic worker. Most stolen items were quickly recovered. Gurmeet Choudhary has revealed that a robbery took place at his residence in Mumbai, involving a newly hired domestic staff member. The actor shared the details in a post on social media, urging fans to remain cautious and thoroughly verify anyone employed for household work. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Gurmeet wrote, 'Alert. Today, a new worker stole some items from our home and ran away. Thankfully, we always verify anyone who comes to work, so we could act quickly. I'm especially grateful I was home, and my babies were safe in their room." He added that most of the stolen items were recovered swiftly due to prompt action and a few timely phone calls. 'Most importantly, everyone is safe. Just a bit of bad luck, but a strong reminder: Stay alert. Always verify anyone who enters your home for work," he said in his post. Take a look: Gurmeet did not disclose specific details about the stolen items or whether a formal police complaint was filed. Gurmeet Choudhary married actress Debina Bonnerjee on February 15, 2011. The couple renewed their vows and tied the knot again on October 4, 2021 in a traditional ceremony. They welcomed their first daughter on April 3, 2022, followed by the birth of their second daughter on November 11, 2022. On the work front, Gurmeet Choudhary was last seen in Season 2 of the Netflix series Yeh Kaali Kaali Aankhen, which premiered last year. He was also expected to star in Maharana, a web series based on the life of Maharana Pratap. However, there have been no recent updates regarding the project. Gurmeet first rose to fame with his portrayal of Lord Rama in the 2009 television series Ramayan, where he starred opposite Debina Bonnerjee as Sita. The couple also appeared together on the reality show Pati Patni Aur Woh during their engagement. Following Ramayan, Gurmeet gained further popularity as Maan Singh Khurana, a powerful businessman in the hit series Geet – Hui Sabse Parayi, where he starred alongside Drashti Dhami. He later played the lead role of Yash Sindhia in Punar Vivah, opposite Kratika Sengar. First Published: June 04, 2025, 07:22 IST
