More than 20 years after ‘Dawson’s Creek’ left fans divided, Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson are back together again and ready to tell another love story.
The former teen drama costars and real-life exes were spotted in New York City on Monday, July 21, sharing smiles and deep conversation on the set of their newest project.
Holmes, 46, sported a soft pink flannel and relaxed trousers, while Jackson, 47, looked effortlessly casual in a green jacket, jeans, and a messenger bag slung over one shoulder.
Holmes is directing and starring in a new film trilogy titled ‘Happy Hours,’ and Jackson is officially along for the ride. According to Deadline, the pair will lead the story as characters navigating love, family, and careers, reconnecting as adults after the weight of life has reshaped their youthful romance.
“Happy Hours is described as a story about two people (Jackson and Holmes) navigating their relationship within the challenges of careers and family responsibilities and the pursuit of love, despite life’s inevitable obstacles,” the publication detailed.
