Katie Holmes Talks ‘Dawson’s Creek’ Role: ‘I Don’t Know if I Have Moved Past It’

In a new interview, Katie Holmes admitted that she hasn't moved past her days playing Joey Potter on "Dawson's Creek." The 36-year-old actress told Elle Canada that the role will always be a big part of her past.

"I don't know if I have moved past it, but I don't really care," Holmes said. "I had a ball doing it, and it's really nice to be a part of something that did affect people."

"Dawson's Creek" became a cult classic, and Holmes said that it definitely helped launch her career, and gave her costars James Van Der Beek, Joshua Jackson and Michelle Williams a boost as well.

"It created a lot of opportunities for all of us," she told Elle.

Since the show's ending in 2003, there has been buzz over whether the cast would ever come together for a possible reunion. Holmes has said in the past that she would sign up, and in 2012 Williams also expressed her interest in doing a reunion, even though her character, Jen Lindley, died in the finale.

"I would very happily do a reunion show, I don't know what it would be," she said at the time. "My character died in the end, so there are certain limitations for me. It's either I come back as a ghost or I'm shot through a lot of gauzy, hazy light as my 19-year-old self."
