Netflix unveils first look at Nobody Wants This season two and reveals release date

News.com.au21 hours ago
Netflix's Emmy nominated smash hit rom-com Nobody Wants This is finally coming back for its second season, and quicker than most shows on the streamer get the chance to return.
Season one saw agnostic podcast host Joanne (Kristen Bell) and unconventional but sexy rabbi Noah (Adam Brody) fall in love.
Season two will follow them as they attempt to overcome the obstacles that have been keeping them apart.
New photos from the upcoming season show Noah and Joanne looking cozy and in love, Joanne sitting on the sidelines to watch Noah's Matzah Ballers play basketball, and Joanne continuing to podcast with her sister, Morgan (Justine Lupe).
One notable actress missing from the pictures however is Leighton Meester, the real-life wife of Adam Brody.
It was announced back in February that she had been cast in the forthcoming season to play Joanne's former middle school nemesis, who is now an Instagram mummy influencer, Abby.
It also marks a Gossip Girl reunion between Meester and Bell after the pair starred together on the iconic CW show for years.
Fans rushed to Instagram to share their excitement over the show returning so quickly, with one commenting: 'Thank God it didn't take 100 years!'
'I've honestly never been more excited for a show. I can quote the first season entirely so it's time they gave me some new material,' remarked another.
A third replied: 'Oh already? I'm sat. It took only a year? Okay Netflix I see y'all listening to the people!'
While another excited fan added: 'Easily their best show EVER. Been waiting a year!'
So what exactly can fans expect from season two? The official synopsis reads:
'First comes love, then comes life. The last time we saw agnostic podcast host Joanne (Bell) and unconventional (hot) rabbi Noah (Brody), their unmatched chemistry surprised everyone in their lives, including her sister Morgan (Lupe), his brother Sasha (Timothy Simons) and sister-in-law Esther (Jackie Tohn), and even themselves. Their spark proved stronger than all of the obstacles trying to keep them apart. Now, they're back and fully committed to merging their lives — and loved ones — together. But their differences still exist and can't be ignored. The challenge now is not just falling in love against all odds, but staying together in spite of them.'
The first series was a huge hit with both critics and audiences alike, so only time will tell if lightning has struck in the same place twice for Netflix.
Season 2 will premiere October 23 on Netflix.

Denzel Washington gives his brutally honest take on Oscars after Gladiator II snub

Denzel Washington doesn't care about those shiny gold trophies. The Fences actor, 70, recently explained why winning an Oscar isn't important to him in his career. 'I don't do it for Oscars. I don't care about that kind of stuff,' he said on Jake's Takes while promoting his new film, Highest 2 Lowest. 'I've been at this a long time, and there's time when I won and shouldn't have won and then didn't win and should've won,' Washington added, per the New York Post. 'Man gives the award. God gives the reward.' Despite being nominated nine times and taking home two wins at the award ceremony, Washington noted: 'I'm not that interested in Oscars.' 'People ask me, 'Where do I keep it?' Well, next to the other one. I'm not bragging! Just telling you how I feel about it,' he said. 'On my last day, [Oscars] aren't going to do me a bit of good.' Washington won Oscars in 1990 for Glory and in 2002 for Training Day. He was also nominated for his performances in Cry Freedom, Malcolm X, The Hurricane, Flight, Fences, Roman J. Israel, Esq. and The Tragedy of Macbeth. Earlier this year, Washington was snubbed by the Academy for his performance in Gladiator II. He was expected to get into the Best Supporting Actor race, especially after scoring nominations at the 2025 Golden Globes and 2025 Critics Choice Awards. When asked how he felt about the snub in February, Washington sarcastically told the New York Times: 'Are you kidding me? Awww. Oh, I'm so upset.' 'Listen, I've been around too long. I've got — I don't wanna say other fish to fry, but there's a reality at this age,' he added. 'The beginning of wisdom is understanding. I'm getting wiser, working on talking less and learning to understand more — and that's exciting.' Three months after the Oscars snub, Washington failed to get nominated for a Tony Award for his performance in Othello, which generated controversy for its high ticket costs. Last year, Washington made headlines for saying he plans to retire after his slew of upcoming acting projects, including Black Panther 3. 'I don't know how many more films I'm going to make. Probably not that many,' he said during an interview with Australia's Today show. 'I want to do things I haven't done,' Washington added.

Pierce Brosnan's son pops up in rare red carpet appearance

Don't miss out on the headlines from Celebrity Kids. Followed categories will be added to My News. Pierce Brosnan's son Dylan Brosnan is one tall lad. The 28-year-old towered over his famous dad in a sweet red carpet appearance Thursday. The father-son duo stepped out for a New York City screening of Pierce's forthcoming movie, The Thursday Murder Club, posing for pictures together at the Plaza Hotel before heading to the Paris Theater, per Page Six. For the outing, the 72-year-old actor, most famous for his portrayal of James Bond, looked dapper in a cream-coloured suit jacket, which he wore buttoned and atop a matching shirt. He completed his sleek ensemble with a black polka-dot tie, a black pocket square, black slacks and black dress shoes.

Picture:for Netflix Meanwhile, Dylan — a filmmaker who graduated from the University of Southern California's School of Cinematic Arts in May 2020 — opted for a more retro, loose-fitting Gray suit, which he wore unbuttoned and paired with a white collared shirt, black-and-white-striped tie and black dress shoes. He wore his brown shoulder-length hair combed back in a wispy 'do. The pair stood next to each other with one arm wrapped around the other and one hand in a pant pocket as the shutterbugs snapped away. Pierce shares Dylan and his 24-year-old brother, Paris Brosnan, with his wife, Keely Shaye Smith. The Golden Globe nominee was joined by both Dylan and Paris in his June film, The Unholy Trinity, which marked the siblings' big-screen debut. Avery Wheless and Dylan Brosnan attend the 2021 GQ Men of the Year Party in California. Picture:for GQ Brosnan with co-stars Helen Mirren and Ben Kingsley in NYC. Picture:for Netflix 'To be able to share that with them is a gift of time and memory,' Pierce told People at the time, describing the emotion as 'beautiful.' 'We always stayed together tight as a family unit during the days of James Bond, and now, of course, as they're older, here to be able to make movies with Dad,' he added, emphasising that he 'would jump into the trenches any day of the week with' his sons, as the trio travels 'well together.' Pierce shared his daughter, Charlotte Brosnan, and sons Christopher Brosnan, 52, and Sean Brosnan, 41, with his first wife, Cassandra Harris, who died of ovarian cancer in December 1991. She was 43. Charlotte died of the same disease in June 2013 at the age of 41.
