Nobody Wants This has sparked an Adam Brody renaissance, and Hollywood seems to have noticed.
Brody, who stars in the Netflix rom-com as a newly single rabbi falling in love with an agnostic sex podcaster (played by Kristen Bell), landed his first Golden Globes nomination for the show and is now getting a wave of new projects and scripts sent his way.
“I’ve gotten a lot of interesting stuff. My email is fuller than it was,” he told The Hollywood Reporter at the Golden Globes First-Time Nominee Celebration on Tuesday. Brody said he’s not looking to do anything specific next, but “if I’m looking to not do something, it’s probably nothing that is too similar to the show. Other than that, quality of writing is a precious jewel and anything well-written, anyone would be lucky to do it.”
One thing he will be doing is season two of Nobody Wants This, which he said creator Erin Foster and the writing team are currently at work on. “I haven’t read [scripts]. I don’t know, and I kind of don’t want to know, just because if I know, I’ll start working on it in my head, and I don’t want to,” Brody explained of the second season.
And as for the show’s awards attention — with Bell also up for a Golden Globe, as well as the show nominated for best TV series, musical or comedy — Brody noted, “It sounds cheesy, but it was so fun to film. It was so fun to make actually, and it was such a good time with a good group of people that to now be here celebrating it after the fact is an embarrassment of riches.”
The Golden Globes event — held ahead of the Jan. 5 show — was also attended by nominees Ariana Grande, Pamela Anderson, Kathryn Hahn, Mikey Madison, Hiroyuki Sanada, Cooper Koch and Kris Bowers.
Golden Globes producer Dick Clark Productions is owned by Penske Media Eldridge, a joint venture between Penske Media Corporation and Eldridge that also owns The Hollywood Reporter.
