A 'Dawson's Creek' Reunion with Katie Holmes, Michelle Williams and More May Be on the Horizon

Fingers crossed

Cue the nostalgia because it looks like another Dawson's Creek reunion might be happening. The beloved teen drama aired for six seasons from 1998 to 2003 and followed a tight-knit group of high school friends in the fictional town of Capeside, Massachusetts. It’s also pretty much responsible for launching the careers of stars like James Van Der Beek, Katie Holmes, Michelle Williams and Joshua Jackson.

Now, over two decades later, the gang might be reuniting once again but it's all about syncing up schedules. Actress Busy Philipps, who was also part of the cast, shared that she, along with Williams and Holmes, are working on organizing a reunion to support Van Der Beek, who revealed his cancer diagnosis in November 2024.

“We’re really trying to figure something out, but there are a couple of people with unmovable work commitments,” Philipps told Us Weekly. “It’s like playing chess, trying to get everybody’s schedules to align. But I’m hopeful we’ll make it happen.”

This wouldn’t be the first time the cast has come together— they reunited back in 2018 for the show’s 20th anniversary.

While a Dawson's Creek reunion might be on the horizon, don’t expect a reboot anytime soon. Holmes, in a 2022 interview with ScreenRant, made it clear that she’s not too keen on the idea of reviving the series.

“I’m so grateful for that experience,” she said. "We’ve talked about it over the years, but I feel like that show really captured a specific time in our lives."

Holmes also mentioned that her former castmates—Van Der Beek, Williams and Jackson—feel the same way.

“I think it’s awesome that people are nostalgic for it. I am too. But do we want to see those characters at a different age?” she said. “We all decided we don’t actually want a reboot.”
