Netflix’s hit comedy Nobody Wants This has added Leighton Meester and Miles Fowler as guest stars for its second season.

The show, which quickly became a Top 10 hit after its September premiere, was renewed in October.

Meester, best known for her iconic role as Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl, will portray Abby, Joanne’s (Kristen Bell) middle school nemesis turned Instagram mommy influencer. Fowler (A Man on the Inside, Bottoms) plays Lenny, Noah’s (Adam Brody) Matzah Ballers teammate who gets set up with Morgan (Justine Lupe).

The series follows agnostic podcast host Joanne and unconventional rabbi Noah as they navigate romance, personal differences, and meddling families. Alongside Bell and Brody, the ensemble cast includes Stephanie Faracy, Michael Hitchcock, Tovah Feldshuh, Paul Ben-Victor, Emily Arlook, Jackie Tohn, Sherry Cola, and Shiloh Berman.

Meester, who has previously worked with Bell on Veronica Mars, has also starred in Single Parents and How I Met Your Father. Fowler has appeared in The Resident and Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty.

Season 2 is helmed by new showrunners Jenni Konner and Bruce Eric Kaplan, with series creator Erin Foster staying on as an executive producer. Produced by 20th Television in association with Steven Levitan Productions, the show is set to continue its momentum with fresh storylines and new guest appearances.
