More than two decades after their beloved portrayal of Joey Potter and Pacey Witter, the former co-stars are reuniting for a new film trilogy titled Happy Hours, currently filming in New York City.
First Look: Joey & Pacey, Grown Up
Set photos from the Katie Holmes Joshua Jackson NYC shoot are already circulating online, showing the pair in character as two adults reconnecting after years apart. Their natural chemistry — first seen in the late ’90s — is as present as ever, sparking excitement among longtime fans and media alike.
“They just pick up where they left off,” one onlooker said. “The familiarity between them is impossible to fake.”
About Happy Hours: Love, Loss & Second Chances
Written and directed by Katie Holmes, the Happy Hours trilogy is a romantic dramedy centered on two characters navigating:
- The evolution of love
- Career crossroads
- Family obligations
- The pain and beauty of reconnection later in life
Holmes and Joshua Jackson portray former lovers whose shared history complicates their present. It’s emotional, grounded, and reflective — everything fans want from a romantic drama film trilogy in 2025.
Who Else Is In the Cast?
The Happy Hours movie cast includes:
- Joe Tippett (Mare of Easttown)
- John McGinty
- Donald Webber Jr.
- Nathan Darrow
The trilogy is structured as three standalone yet interlinked films, each exploring a different emotional layer of adult relationships.
Katie & Josh: Reuniting With History
Holmes, now 46, and Jackson, also 46, dated briefly in real life during the early Dawson’s Creek years, but remained close colleagues until the series ended in 2003.
Their return to the screen together is more than just a movie project — it’s a full-circle moment that taps into the power of celebrity reunions on screen.
*“This is not a reboot,” Holmes shared in a recent interview. “It’s its own story — but the connection Josh and I have adds an extra layer.”
Why This Project Has Everyone Talking
The Happy Hours trilogy combines:
- Star power from a fan-favorite TV pairing
- Modern romantic storytelling rooted in adulthood
- A real-life NYC setting that’s already drawing attention
- Creative control from Holmes, offering a fresh lens on love
For many, it feels like the reunion they never thought they’d get — not a Dawson’s Creek revival, but something more real.
What’s Next?
With the first installment currently filming in NYC, production on the second and third films is expected to follow back-to-back. A 2025 release is likely.
