Michelle Willams reunited with her former Dawson's Creek costar Joshua Jackson after the 2023 Oscars.

The pair were spotted chatting inside the Vanity Fair Oscar Party alongside Williams' husband Thomas Kail.

The 42-year-old actress — who played Jen Lindley on the drama series — appeared to make her way directly from the awards ceremony where she was nominated for Best Actress for her role in The Fabelmans. For the big night, Williams was wearing white Chanel dress with a sheer overlay adorned with crystals while Jackson, 44, kept in classic black tuxedo.

In January, Jackson — who starred as Pacey Witter on Dawson's Creek — celebrated Williams' fifth Oscar nomination on social media.

"5 Academy Award Nominations!!! Holy Moses," the Little Fires Everywhere star shared on his Instagram Story alongside a throwback photo of Williams posted by fellow Dawson's Creek alum Busy Philipps, per E! News.

"I don't know but I imagine that this was taken in some dingy watering hole when we were all kids," he added. "What an amazing journey you have been on. Congratulations!"

Jackson and Williams starred together on Dawson's Creek for the entirety of its six-season run, which spanned 1998 to 2003. The show followed Dawson (James Van Der Beek) and his friends (Williams, Jackson, Katie Holmes and Kerr Smith) as they navigated life, love and sex throughout their teen years.

In 2021, Jackson shot down the possibility of a Friends-style reunion.

"I think because the Friends cast were already adults when they were doing the show, it's less jarring to see them now," he told The Guardian at the time. "If you put our mid-40s selves together on a couch now, with our creaking backs, it might shock people."

"Nobody needs to hear Pacey grunting when he gets out of a chair," he joked.

Back in 2016, Williams acknowledged her character Jen Lindley's chances of appearing in any sort of reboot or revival were slim.

"I died," she said on Today. "I would have to come back as a ghost — or put a lot of filters on the camera, and I'll do flashback scenes."

Added Williams, "I think it's a fun thing to sort of imagine. I like imagining it. But I haven't really heard anybody say anything like actually serious about that happening."

Although a return to the Creek may not be in her future, Williams did admit that she has her own get-togethers with former costars.

"We make little Dawson's Creek reunions. Sometimes I'll see Mary Beth Peil, who played my Grams, and Busy Philipps, and we have, like, little mini-reunions," she revealed. "But I guess they're sort of private!"
