    'Dawson's Creek' Reunion Blocked From Hulu's New Series 'Little Fires Everywhere'

    by

    The WB

    The web television drama miniseries starring Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington almost features a reunion between Joshua Jackson and his former co-star Kerr Smith.
    Apr 26, 2020
    AceShowbiz – An onscreen “Dawson’s Creek” reunion between Joshua Jackson and Kerr Smith on the set of “Little Fires Everywhere” was nixed as it was considered “too distracting.”
    Showrunner Liz Tigelaar reveals shortly after Jackson landed the role of attorney Bill Richardson in the limited series, she thought it would be great to bring Smith onboard for a cameo, having previously worked together on 2010 drama “Life Unexpected”.
    However, Tigelaar soon had a change of heart about the idea as the thought of having Jackson and Smith – known for their breakthrough roles as Pacey Witter and Jack McPhee – share the screen again, 17 years after “Dawson’s Creek” wrapped for good was too much for her to bear.
    In a chat with The Hollywood Reporter, Tigelaar, who also served as a writer for “Dawson’s Creek”, explained, “I wanted to put Kerr Smith in so bad, but the only thing I could do was (have him in a scene) with Josh Jackson, and I thought it was going to be too distracting for Jack and Pacey to be reunited.”
    She “felt so bad” about leaving Smith out of “Little Fires Everywhere”, but knew “Dawson’s Creek” fans would already have enough to get excited about with scenes of Jackson walking around half-naked in his “tighty-whities.”
    “Josh has already been in his tighty-whities. So much has happened,” Tigelaar reflected, adding of the potential Smith cameo, “It’s going to be jarring. It’s going to be like, ‘Jack’s here?’ ”
    “My heart couldn’t handle it, either!”
    “Little Fires Everywhere” also stars Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington and is adapted from author Celeste Ng’s bestselling novel of the same name. The eighth and final episode premiered on streaming service Hulu on Wednesday, April 22, 2020.

      Joshua Jackson Pokes Fun at His Tighty-Whities Scene in 'Little Fires Everywhere'

      Asked to weigh in on the unexpected attention he received for his role in the new series, the former ‘Dawson’s Creek’ star admits on ‘Live with Kelly and Ryan’ that he ‘enjoys getting objectified’.
      Mar 27, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Joshua Jackson is thrilled his “tighty-whities” are a hit on new streaming series “Little Fires Everywhere”.
      “The Affair” star’s latest show, also starring Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington, debuted on Hulu on March 18, and Joshua is winning some unexpected extra praise for his role.
      “I actually, oh boy, I didn’t realise quite what a hit they (underwear) were going to be,” he laughed on “Live with Kelly and Ryan”, appearing remotely from his home where he’s on both coronavirus lockdown and babywatch with his heavily pregnant wife, British actress/model Jodie Turner-Smith.
      “Who knew, that all these years what was missing from my career was parading around in my tighty-whities!”
      The “Dawson’s Creek” actor, 41, didn’t think twice about his onset undies while he was filming, but now he remembers something odd that took place while the cast was shooting the first episode.
      “I had forgotten this until… the show aired and the tighty-whities became quite a thing,” he smiled. “There are two scenes (where I’m) in them on that first episode and they (producers) actually made me change out of the tighty-whities for the second one.
      “I remember them nebulously being like, ‘Well, you know, maybe it’s just a little bit much’. And I didn’t quite realise what they were saying until I watched it and I was, ‘OK, oh yeah, that’s a lot. There’s not a lot left to the imagination there.’ ”

      But Jackson is having a good laugh about it all, while he’s waiting for the health crisis to blow over and his first child to arrive.
      “It’s OK, I’m in my 40s now. I enjoy getting objectified!” he added.
