Adam Brody breaks off “Nobody Wants This” kiss with Kristen Bell

Adam Brody openly kisses Kristen Bell in their new hit romantic comedy series Nobody Wants This.

In the Netflix show, Bell, 44, plays a sex-positive podcast host named Joanne who meets and falls in love with newly minted rabbi Noah (Brody). The two try to make their relationship work while dealing with their families and cultural drama.

But in real life, Brody, 44, and Bell are good friends, which makes the kissing scenes between “The OC” alum and the “Veronica Mars” star easier.

“I think because we know each other, it's less weird, as weird as that sounds,” Brody said Thursday on “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” “I don't know, I mean, I think there's a certain trust, there's a certain familiarity.”

Kimmel, 56, asked the “Jennifer's Body” actor if he and his wife, Leighton Meester, who share a daughter and son, would hang out on “The Good Place.” Star and her husband Dax Shepard, who have been parents to daughters Lincoln and Delta more or less since filming.

“That’s a good question,” Brody said. “That could be the litmus test. Not really. You live on the east side, I live on the west side. I think that's fine. But Dax always moans, 'Oh, I wish you lived on the east side, we could hang out more.'”

“Don’t you have 300 cars?” he joked. “Driving should be fun!”

The last episode ended with a cliffhanger, leaving fans clamoring for a second season.

“I think they’re playing it cool,” Brody said of the network’s reaction to a second season. “We'll see. Actually, officially I don’t know anything, but deep in my heart I feel like I know something.”

Meanwhile, Bell also understands why viewers are so excited about her and Brody's on-screen chemistry.

“Even I can agree that I looked at it and said, 'Wow, that's hot,'” she admitted in a recent eTalk interview. “My husband said the same thing. When he watched the first episode, he thought, 'Oh my God, I want you to kiss him so bad.'”

“I'm not trying to be reductive, but I think there's a math to it. You have two actors who know how to stare stupidly into each other's eyes, and you have to have the confidence to expand on that and really feel the anticipation before the kiss – which I think is really important.”

Bell confessed, “Whether people want to see you get together or not is a nonsense, and we just have lightning in a bottle.”

Series creator Erin Foster also expressed the possibility of a continuation of the love story between Joanne and Noah.

“Conversations have definitely begun about a possible second season,” she told IndieWire last month. “The story in Season 1 develops very slowly. So if there is a second season, I would just want to pick up where we left off and take it slow because I don't want us to get too far ahead of ourselves.”

“We’re getting a really positive response,” Foster continued. “And that's why I think the conversations about a possible second season have definitely begun.”

The 10-episode series is currently streaming on Netflix.
