Actor Miles Fowler (A Man on the Inside) will also appear in the show’s second season as Lenny, Noah’s Matzah Ballers teammate who gets set up with Joanne’s sister Morgan (Justine Lupe). The next month, Bell’s husband Dax Shephard joked that he “didn’t even know she could kiss like that.”.

"My friend ... we watched that scene together, the kissing scene, which I'd argue is the very best kissing scene ever, ever put on film,” Shephard said during an October 2024 panel at the New Yorker Festival. “And my best friend, Aaron, from childhood, he goes, 'Does she ever kiss you like that?' No, I didn't even know she could kiss like that.”.

Meester, who’s been married to Brody since 2014, was later asked about her feelings toward the kiss. “How do I feel about the kiss? I think it’s great,” she told reporters on the Golden Globes red carpet. Brody quickly chimed in, adding: “She taught me.”.

“I taught him everything he knows,” Meester quipped, with Brody saying: “She gets the good stuff. That’s not even the A material.”. That night, Brody won the Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Comedy Series for his portrayal of the “hot rabbi.”.

The camera then panned to Meester, who had tears in her eyes and blew a kiss in Brody’s direction. In another moment captured by an onlooker, the pair, who share two children, embraced and shared a passionate kiss after Brody’s win. This isn’t the first time Meester, who’s best known for her role as Blair Waldorf in the cult TV classic Gossip Girl, has shared the screen with Brody. Years before they began dating in 2013, the couple co-starred in the 2011 rom-com The Oranges. They later reunited on screen for the 2014 movie Life Partners and again in ABC’s sitcom Single Parents.
