- Adam Brody plays a charming rabbi on Netflix’s new series “Nobody Wants This,” costarring Kristen Bell.
- Brody’s big breakout role was Seth Cohen in the hit teen drama series “The O.C.”
- He played similarly likable characters in “Gilmore Girls” and the “Shazam!” movies.
The Adam Brody renaissance is in full swing thanks to Netflix’s new show “Nobody Wants This.”
The rom-com series, which has sat comfortably on the streamer’s current top 10 TV shows list since its debut on Thursday, stars Brody as a rabbi named Noah Roklov and Kristen Bell as an agnostic sex podcaster named Joanne.
Despite their differences and complications, Noah and Joanne embark on a relationship that unfolds over the course of 10 episodes.
Brody’s off-the-charts charisma, plus his chemistry with Bell, has left viewers charmed (and horny). For people just discovering Brody through “Nobody Wants This,” it’s baffling why he isn’t one of the most booked and busy rom-com actors. But those who have been following the actor since his days playing the sarcastic but lovable Seth Cohen on “The O.C.” know that he’s always been adept at playing a swoon-worthy leading man.
While fans eagerly wait to see if Netflix will renew “Nobody Wants This” for a second season, here are nine more of Brody’s most notable TV and film roles to revisit in the meantime.
