Joey and Pacey, together again! On Monday, former Dawson’s Creek stars Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson were spotted in New York City, where they are filming a new project. 

Two decades after the teen soap ended its run, Holmes, 46, and Jackson, 47, have teamed up on a new movie trilogy, Happy Hours. Holmes is writing and directing the movies, which is about two people – played by Holmes and Jackson – navigating their relationship amid the challenges of career and family responsibilities, per Deadline.

​​”It’s a character-driven dramedy that explores the emotional journey of young loves who reconnect as adults, with the connective thread of shared joys, loss, and hop,” Deadline reports.

‘Dawson’s Creek’: Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson Split Before Joey and Pacey Got Together

In the July 21 photo, the casually dressed pair stroll down an NYC street, trailed by a man with a camera and having what appears to be an animated conversation. 

Holmes and Jackson played on-again, off-again couple Joey Potter and Pacey Witter on Dawson’s Creek, which aired from 1998 to 2003. They also dated for about a year early in the show’s run and have remained friends ever since. 

“Katie and I are very close,” Jackson said earlier this year during an appearance on Jesse Tyler Ferguson’s Dinner’s On Me podcast. 

The Doctor Odyssey star married Jodie Turner-Smith in 2019. They have one child and divorced in 2023. Holmes was famously married to Tom Cruise from 2006 to 2012. They share daughter Suri Cruise.
