Netflix has added to the season three cast for Nobody Wants This with nine new recurring roles unveiled on Wednesday.
Along with series creator Erin Foster set to play Nicole, a terminally single and chaotic mess, there’s also recurring roles for Sarah Silverman as Rabbi Eden, who teaches an intro to Judaism course; Andrew Rannells as Sebastien, Joanne’s nemesis in her conversion class; and Keyla Monterroso Mejia as Amber, a single woman obsessed with finding a Jewish husband.
Alongside returning series regulars Kristen Bell, Adam Brody, Justine Lupe, Timothy Simons and Jackie Tohn, there’s also guest roles for Avan Jogia as Travis; Poorna Jagannathan to play Eleanor; Sadie Sandler as Denise; Stephanie Koenig as Poppy; and Steven Weber as Julian, a funny and secure divorced dad.
Nobody Wants This in its second season again centered on agnostic podcast host Joanne, played by Bell, and the unconventional Rabbi Noah (Brody), as their unmatched chemistry continued to surprise everyone in their lives. That included Joanne’s sister Morgan (Lupe), his brother Sasha (Simons) and sister-in-law Esther (Tohn).
In the third upcoming third season, Joanne and Noah will be 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,” according to a synopsis from the producers.
Nobody Wants This is executive produced by showrunners Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan, along with Foster, Bell, Sara Foster, Nora Silver, Steven Levitan, Danielle Stokdyk, Jeff Morton and Oly Obst. The series is produced by 20th Television.
