Jennifer’s Body Cast: Where Are They Now?

Adam Brody’s role in «Jennifer’s Body» is pretty brief, but it’s also incredibly vital to the overall plot. See, Brody plays Nikolai Wolf, the lead singer of Low Shoulder who lures Jennifer into the woods for a specific and sinister reason. He and his band want to use Jennifer as a human sacrifice so that they can guarantee fame and fortune in their future, but there’s one problem; the sacrifice is supposed to be performed using a virgin, and Jennifer isn’t one. Nikolai and his band escape consequences at first, but at the very end of the film, Needy, armed with the late Jennifer’s otherworldly powers, sets out to get revenge against Nikolai and the rest of Low Shoulder.

Brody, who’s probably best known for his role as Seth Cohen on the primetime teen soap «The O.C.,» has worked steadily since that series and «Jennifer’s Body.» After the latter, he appeared in 2012’s «Seeking a Friend for the End of the World» and 2015’s «Sleeping with Other People» in supporting roles, and recently, he’s shown up in superhero fare like the «Shazam!» films and horror favorites like 2019’s «Ready or Not.» In 2020, Brody played a predatory role somewhat similar to Nikolai in Emerald Fennell’s Oscar-winning film «Promising Young Woman,» and in 2022, he played a lead role in Hulu’s acclaimed miniseries «Fleishman is in Trouble.»
