Fans of“Nobody Wants This”have been buzzing about possible tension behind the scenes, and Tovah Feldshuh just addressed it directly. The actress, who plays Bina on the hit Netflix rom-com, posted on Threads that“tensions are NOT RISING. Profound differences of opinion are.”The disagreement centers on Adam Brody’s comments to GQ, where he said he believes the situation is“a genocide”and voiced support for“a free Palestine.”Feldshuh, who plays Brody’s on-screen mother, called that accusation“wild,”while former show adviser Rabbi Steve Leder called Brody an“ignorant Jew.”
Feldshuh also made it clear that the conflict won’t spill onto the set, and she’s hoping the show lands a fourth season. Season 3 just debuted on Netflix, so the timing of all this couldn’t be more awkward or more talked about.
So much for the show being pure escapism. What’s your take: can castmates with major political disagreements still make a great show together?
