We had deja vu this week when we spotted Katie Holmes reuniting with her former Dawson’s Creek co-star, Joshua Jackson, who were on set of a new project. The actors were snapped while filming in New York for an exciting new trilogy which Katie is spearheading.
In the photographs, the pair can be seen laughing as they stroll along the city streets in casual clothes. Katie wears a red flannel shirt and wide-leg navy trousers, while Joshua wears a khaki shirt over a printed t-shirt and jeans. The pair were surrounded by camera crew, who followed along behind them to capture the scene.
The project being shot is Happy Hours, a new film trilogy which Katie will be writing, directing and starring in. The story follows a couple - played by Katie and Joshua - and their 'relationship within the challenges of careers and family responsibilities and the pursuit of love, despite life’s inevitable obstacles,' according to Deadline.
It's described as '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 hope.'
The project is now well underway with filming in New York continuing this summer. The second and third instalments of the trilogy are expected to begin closely afterwards. Other cast members announced so far include, Mary-Louise Parker, Constance Wu, Joe Tippett, John McGinty, Donald Webber Jr., Nathan Darrow, Johnna Dias-Watson and Jack Martin.
Announcing the project on her own social media, Katie said she was 'so very grateful to be working again with so many of my wonderful friends on this film' and said especially called out 'working with Josh after so many years is a testament to friendship.'
She said that she 'adored' the work and couldn't 'wait for everyone to see what we make.'
