Dawson’s Creek star Kerr Smith looks unrecognisable from his days on the huge hit show.
The iconic American drama followed the lives of a close-knit group of friends in the fictional town of Capeside, Massachusetts and it ran for five years with five seasons. Kerr joined the cast in season two and became a fan favourite quickly.
Kerr played the character of Jack McPhee, who struggled with his sexuality during the series and ultimately came out as gay, becoming the first openly gay character to kiss on primetime TV, breaking down barriers for future generations. It has now been 20 years since the final episode of the show and, unsurprisingly, Kerr looks worlds away from his Dawsons Creek character.

He is also a certified pilot and started the holistic health and wellness business TerraLife Wellness with his wife, Lisa. He was previously married to film producer Harmoni Everett before they split in 2009.
Several television critics and consumer watchdog groups expressing concerns about its anticipated “racy” plots and dialogue. Columnist John Leo said the show should be called “While Parents Cringe”, and went on to write, “The first episode contains a good deal of chatter about breasts, genitalia, masturbation, and penis size. Then the title and credits come on and the story begins.”
