Adam Brody and Erin Foster sing Kristen Bell's praises as they preview their new culture-clash rom-com series 'Nobody Wants This.'
A lifestyle podcaster falls madly in love with a progressive rabbi in a story inspired by Foster's real-life conversion to Judaism.
Netflix's new rom-com series, which drops all 10 episodes on Sept. 26, follows Bell's central lifestyle podcaster as she navigates a complex, passionate romance with Brody's progressive religious leader on the east side of Los Angeles.
Foster's real partner isn't actually a rabbi, so the distinctions between fiction and reality are immediately clear; however, she did write the initial version of the pilot intending to play the lead role herself. "Kristen told me, 'I know you wrote this for yourself, so I don't wanna come in and take a project away from you and take a job from you,'" Foster recalls. "And she was really gracious about it. And I said, 'Honestly, I want to have a baby.
Foster said that Bell was overjoyed to reunite with Brody on screen. "They have a friendship," she says. "They were both just really excited to work together, and it was perfect. It's still funny because they have such hot chemistry on camera, and then you realize they're just normal friends off-screen."star says that he was initially drawn to the show's approachable framing of religion.
Though the season certainly provides a satisfying romantic arc, Foster hopes that Joanne and Noah's story can continue beyond these first 10 episodes. "I absolutely want another season of the show," Foster says. "And I definitely wrote it with a second or third season in mind, because I got plans for Joanne."
