Katie Holmes & Joshua Jackson Rekindle On-Screen Romance in NYC!
Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson Spark Romance Rumors Again!
It's been over two decades since they first stole our hearts as Joey Potter and Pacey Witter on the hit TV show Dawson's Creek, but it seems like Katie Holmes (46) and Joshua Jackson (47) are rekindling their romance - and this time, it's off-camera!
The former co-stars were spotted putting on a loved-up display while filming their upcoming trilogy, Happy Hours, in New York City on Friday. And we can't help but wonder: could this be the start of something more between them?
Katie flashed her signature megawatt smile as Joshua lovingly wrapped his arm around her neck and pushed a stroller. The Dawson's Creek alumna looked stunning in a black slacks, floral patterned sleeveless white blouse, and black ballet flats, with a light blue denim shirt tied around her hips for added flair.
Meanwhile, Joshua sported a dashing button-up chambray shirt and dark trousers - perfect attire for the star of Doctor Odyssey. The chemistry between them is undeniable, and we can't help but feel like they're still playing their iconic roles from back in the day.
This reunion comes after Katie gushed about her friendship with Joshua on Instagram last month, writing: "I am so very grateful to be working again with so many of my wonderful friends on this film HAPPY HOURS. And working with Josh after so many years is a testament to friendship." But let's be real - there's more to it than just friendship, isn't there?
The pair played former lovers who reconnected years later and rekindled their romance in the show. In fact, they even sparked rumors of a real-life romance back in 1998 during the filming of Dawson's Creek. At the time, Katie revealed: "I'm just going to say that I met somebody last year, I fell in love, I had my first love, and it was something so incredible and indescribable."
It seems like history is repeating itself - but this time, we're getting a glimpse into their blossoming romance without the need for cryptic statements. After all, as Katie told Rolling Stone back then: "He's been in the business so long, and he's really helped me. I respect him as a friend and as a professional."
Fast-forward to 2023, and Joshua has since parted ways with his wife of four years, Jodie Turner-Smith (they divorced earlier this year). Meanwhile, Katie has been focusing on her career, writing the screenplay for Happy Hours and serving as director.
The trilogy is set to star an impressive cast, including Busy Philipps (who played Pacey's girlfriend Audrey Liddle on Dawson's Creek), Constance Wu, Joe Tippett, John McGinty, Donald Webber Jr., Nathan Darrow, Johnna Dias-Watson, and Jack Martin. But we're all waiting with bated breath to see if their on-screen chemistry translates into a real-life romance.
Fans are already going wild for the reunion, with some taking to Instagram to express their excitement: "Joey and Pacey forever!" others wrote. Busy Philipps chimed in: "We are seated." - but we think she's just trying to get comfortable for the impending romantic drama that's about to unfold on screen.
One thing is certain: Happy Hours has already made waves, and we can't wait to see what the future holds for these two former co-stars. Will they take their rekindled romance off-screen? Only time will tell - but one thing's for sure: this trilogy is shaping up to be the most dramatic, exciting, and romantic ride of the year!
