Arian Moayed and Alex Karpovsky have joined the cast of Netflix’s hit romantic comedy “Nobody Wants This” for its second season. Moayed will play Dr. Andy, a charming psychotherapist who could be a good match for Justine Lupe’s character, Morgan.
Karpovsky will portray Big Noah, an overly confident rabbi and colleague of Adam Brody’s character, Noah Rokolov. The duo joins previously announced cast additions, including Miles Fowler as Noah’s basketball teammate and Leighton Meester as the middle school nemesis of Kristen Bell’s character, Joanne. Meester’s casting also sets up a reunion with her real-life husband and “Nobody Wants This” lead, Adam Brody.
Created by Erin Foster, “Nobody Wants This” follows the story of Joanne, an agnostic podcast host, and Noah, an unconventional rabbi, as they navigate modern love and family challenges.
