RIP to my OG Nice Jewish Boy crush, Adam Brody.
Not to worry, here are just a small selection of alternative NJBs who are quirky, cute, and proud!
• Max Greenfield — Schmidt from New Girl, currently on Netflix's Running Point, and one of the most openly and proudly Jewish voices in Hollywood since October 7
• Asher Angel — Billy Batson in Shazam!, Jonah Beck on Disney's Andi Mack, and also a musician because apparently being a Disney star wasn't enough for him
• Ezra Frech — two-time Paralympic gold medalist, disability advocate, and Persian-Jewish son of an Iranian-born actress who is currently on Dancing with the Stars
• Jaren Lewison — played the lovable Jewish love interest Ben Gross on Never Have I Ever for four seasons and is just as charming in real life
• Timothée Chalamet — Golden Globe-winning star of Dune, Wonka, and A Complete Unknown, raised Jewish on his mother's side, and somehow makes a bowl cut look good
• Logan Lerman — Percy Jackson himself, who went on to star in Hunters as a literal Nazi hunter and We Were the Lucky Ones, a Hulu Holocaust drama with an almost entirely Jewish and Israeli cast
Who are you adding to the list?
