Kristen Bell returns to the screen in Netflix’s “Nobody Wants This,” where she plays a relationship podcast host who develops feelings for an unconventional rabbi, portrayed by Adam Brody. Bell, known for her roles in “Veronica Mars” and “Frozen,” said the project felt right when it came across her desk.

“I think it got my attention because I thought it was like, edgy and thoughtful and funny. And I hadn’t seen a rom-com this grounded in a while, especially dealing with like all the modern perils of dating, like dating apps and cultural differences.”

Bell also revealed she immediately knew Brody was the perfect choice to play her romantic counterpart as she read the script.
