Katie Holmes admits to missing out on the 'Dawson's Creek' WhatsApp group chat
Katie Holmes, known for her role as Joey Potter in the teen drama 'Dawson's Creek', recently admitted in an interview with The Times that she is not part of the cast's WhatsApp group chat. Despite staying in touch with her former co-stars, including James Van Der Beek, Joshua Jackson, and Michelle Williams, she finds the messaging app "a little too much."
Holmes, 45, humorously responded to the revelation of the group chat's existence, stating that she rarely checks WhatsApp and prefers traditional texting to stay connected with friends and family.
Reflecting on her time on the show, Holmes credited 'Dawson's Creek' for shaping her understanding of fashion and its impact on character development. She was particularly inspired by the costume designers' attention to detail and how clothing choices could reflect a character's essence.
The actress also shared how the show helped her navigate her own teenage years, as the storylines resonated with her personal experiences and emotions. She expressed gratitude for the opportunity to play Joey Potter and described the experience as both fun and profound.
Holmes, a mother to 18-year-old Suri, previously acknowledged the show's enduring popularity and its ability to connect with audiences despite the significant changes in technology and communication since its airing. She finds it "pretty wild" that people still relate to the show's themes and characters more than 20 years later.
