Netflix announces Nobody Wants This season 2 release date with Kristen Bell and Adam Brody
Netflix has officially announced that Season 2 of its hit romantic comedy series Nobody Wants This will premiere globally on October 23, 2025. The announcement came during an Emmys FYC event celebrating the show's first season.
Inspired by the real-life story of creator Erin Foster, Season 1 followed an unlikely romance between Joanne (Kristen Bell), an outspoken agnostic podcaster, and Noah (Adam Brody), an unconventional rabbi. The season concluded with uncertainty as Joanne admitted she wasn't ready to convert to Judaism, leaving their future unresolved.
The original cast will return for the second season, joined by new additions including Leighton Meester as Abby, an Instagram mommy influencer and Joanne's childhood rival. Miles Fowler, Alex Karpovsky, and Arian Moayed are also set to appear in new roles.
Netflix renewed the show shortly after its September 2024 debut. Foster described the response to the series as a "career highlight" in an interview with Variety, crediting the cast, crew, and producers for helping bring her vision to life.
Since its launch, Nobody Wants This has developed a strong fan base, largely due to the chemistry between its lead characters. Erin Foster returns as executive producer alongside her sister Sara Foster. Newcomer Nora Silver joins the team this season, with Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan serving as showrunners.

Lucha libre takes over WWE
WWE's Netflix era has been a bit shakier than it was expected to be, and the company, under TKO, has been making some questionable decisions, such as releasing the beloved veteran R-Truth and several others since WrestleMania 41, jacked up ticket prices, and the overall creative direction. But at the same time, there's a lot to be excited about. Lucha is taking over WWE. With the arrival of new luchadors, the company is bent on targeting the Latino market. And it's no surprise the move coincides with WWE buying AAA, the 33-year-old Mexican promotion. Lucha libre has long been a part of WWE shows and international pro-wrestling in general. The rich history of Latino stars, the colourful masks, high-flying in-ring style, all have an appeal worldwide. One can evaluate it based on the success of one of the most popular luchadors in history, Rey Mysterio. And with the lucha invasion of WWE, there are many more willing to step up and find their own place on the global stage. Dark Angel The newest addition to the Monday Night Raw roster is the 'Dark Angel' Stephanie Vaquer. The Chilean superstar has lit the wrestling world on fire since last year. She is the first Chilean woman to compete and win championships in Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL), New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW) and WWE. My first introduction to Vaquer was when she appeared in AEW last year during a brief stint. She faced off against Mercedes Mone in a Winner Takes All match where both Mone's TBS Championship and Vaquer's Strong Women's Championship were on the line. Going into the match, most of the audience wasn't aware of her. You could hear their indifference to Vaquer challenging a top star. But in the span of one match, Vaquer performed so well and impressed the crowd so much that everyone began chanting for her. She was facing an established star like Mone and yet was able to turn the crowd in her favour in a few minutes. That's what put her on WWE's radar and soon, she joined the company. Since joining, she has been a double champion in NXT and has further raised her stock. On Monday, she defeated Ivy Nile and one-half of the women's tag champ Liv Morgan to qualify for the upcoming Money in the Bank match this weekend. Cero Miedo Penta has been a man of many names throughout his career. But his 'Cero Miedo' (zero fear) motto has been a constant. The dark enigma has been around for a long time and has accumulated numerous accolades around the world. And since joining WWE in early 2025, he's slowly coming into his own on the grand stage. I first saw him perform as part of the Lucha Underground (LU) promotion in late 2014. The word 'aura' has been dragged across the mud and repeatedly stomped into the ground by kids at this point, but Penta certainly has it. He has had it for as long as I've seen him perform. In LU, Penta made himself a megastar in a short time with his insane charisma and brutal moves. His storyline with the veteran Vampiro put him on the map. As a fan, his eventual bloody fight with Vampiro and the post-match big reveal was one of the greatest story endings in wrestling – something that would even make M Night Shyamalan nervous. Penta is also set to compete in the men's Money in the Bank and is involved in a rivalry with El Grande Americano, who's definitely a different iconic luchador and not Chad Gable in a mask. With zero fear, Penta is all ready to display dangerous feats in the ladder match in which he is sure to feel like home with his history of competing in brutal matches. Speaking of lucha libre and dangerous matches, Penta's younger brother Rey Fenix isn't far behind either. The former Lucha Bros signed with WWE at the same time. And Fenix has been killing it on SmackDown since his arrival. It's a certainty that the brothers will reform the tag team in the future. And except for any unforeseen circumstances, they are guaranteed to win tag and singles titles during their run and become mainstays on the roster for years. AAA WWE already employs a number of fantastic luchadors on the roster such as Andrade, who is a rock solid addition to any promotion and it's mind-boggling why he isn't a world champion. Besides him, you have the Latino World Order faction with Cruz Del Toro, Joaquin Wilde and Dragon Lee led by the legendary Mysterio; and Legado Del Fantasma with Santos Escobar, Angel and Berto. And now with WWE's acquisition of AAA, the roster has opened up. You have luchadores and luchadoras that perform in the Mexican promotion being able to perform under the WWE brand. WWE's Worlds Collide premium live event, which is also slated for this weekend, will be a pure showcase of lucha libre. Besides the aforementioned stars, it will include AAA's best offerings. So far, the matches announced include Legado Del Fantasma vs. El Hijo de Dr Wagner Jr, Pagano, and Psycho Clown. El Hijo del Vikingo will face Chad Gable for the AAA Mega Championship. Ethan Page will defend his NXT North American Championship against Je'Von Evans, Laredo Kid and Rey Fénix. And LWO will fight Octagón Jr, Aero Star, and Mr. Iguana. It's almost unbelievable that in 2025, we are seeing the likes of Vikingo, Laredo Kid, Aero Star, Fenix, Penta, and many more wrestle under the WWE brand. While WWE has been looking for the next Rey Mysterio to cater to the Hispanic audience for nearly two decades, they have not been able to find one. Many have come and tried, including another iconic luchador Mistico aka Sin Cara, but none have been able to match what Mysterio has been doing for decades. But now with a vast pool of talent opening up, the possibility to find stars that transcend the wrestling world and become part of pop culture are higher than before. Names like Penta, Fenix and Vaquer are a few who could achieve mega success in WWE, if booked right.

Saeed proud of weightlifter Sybil Sohail's gold medal
Farhan Saeed, former frontman of the renowned Pakistani band Jal and now a singer-songwriter and actor, took to Instagram to publicly express his pride after Sybil Sohail became the first Pakistani woman to win the gold medal at the Asian Weightlifting Masters Championship in Doha, Qatar. In a simple Instagram Story, Saeed tagged Sohail herself and wrote, "Proud moment. Congratulations." Adding a Pakistani flag emoji at the end of his short but sweet message to lock in his national pride, Saeed's simple message captured the essence of the country's joy and pride in Sohail's achievement. This was not the first time Saeed has used his social media platform to highlight Pakistani sporting excellence. When javelin thrower Arshad Nadeem clinched gold at the Asian Athletics Championship by defeating a strong Indian contender in the men's javelin final in May, Saeed took to Instagram Story to extend his congratulations on the historic victory. Sohail, 31, competed in the 59kg weight category in Doha. She lifted a total of 95kg — 40kg in the snatch and 55kg in the clean and jerk — to secure her place at the top of the podium. This gold medal marked not only her debut in international weightlifting but also a significant milestone for Pakistani women in strength sports. Previously a decorated powerlifter, Sohail holds titles such as Commonwealth Powerlifting Champion and Asian Commonwealth Powerlifting Champion. Transitioning to weightlifting, she set out with a clear ambition: to raise Pakistan's flag at major Asian events. "I aim to make my country proud, make my family proud. We have sacrificed a lot for the sport, but I need to make sure that all of that effort and dedication pays off," Sohail told The Express Tribune in Doha.
