Dawson's Creek fans were delighted to see Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson reunite at the gala screening of Brunello: The Gracious Visionary on Tuesday night at the David Koch Theatre in New York City. The two actors, who played Joey Potter and Pacey Witter on the iconic teen drama, posed together on the red carpet, sparking a wave of nostalgia among fans.
Holmes wore a white off-the-shoulder blouse with a glittery gray floor-length skirt, while Jackson opted for a burgundy blazer, gray slacks and a matching bow tie. The pair, who briefly dated in real life, have maintained a close friendship since the show ended in 2003.
Social media erupted with excitement as photos of the reunion circulated. One fan wrote, 'The chemistry these two have is absolutely off the charts. 20 plus years later, and they still look like they belong together.' Another added, 'KATIE HOLMES AND JOSHUA JACKSON, YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO PLAY WITH OUR FEELINGS THIS WAY.'
The reunion comes ahead of their upcoming on-screen collaboration in the Happy Hours trilogy, written and directed by Holmes. Jackson will star opposite Holmes as a couple navigating life and love. The first film, set in New York, has already wrapped and is expected to be released later this year.
Jackson described the project as 'magical' during a March appearance on Today, adding that Holmes is 'a lifelong friend.' Holmes also expressed gratitude on Instagram, saying, 'Working with Josh after so many years is a testament to friendship.'
