'Dawson's Creek' stars Joshua Jackson and Katie Holmes reunite

WATCH: Joshua Jackson talks 'Doctor Odyssey'

"Dawson's Creek" co-stars Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson reunited in New York on Tuesday.

The pair posed for photos at a screening of "Brunello: The Gracious Visionary," a Giuseppe Tornatore-directed documentary about Italian designer Brunello Cucinelli.

Jackson sported a deep red suit jacket with a white shirt, gray pants, and a black bowtie for the occasion, while Holmes wore a glittering skirt and half-unbuttoned white shirt worn off one shoulder.

Holmes kept her hair and makeup simple, pairing her outfit with a black clutch and minimal jewelry.

Holmes and Jackson starred together on "Dawson's Creek" from 1998 to 2003 alongside James Van Der Beek, who played the titular star Dawson Leery.

Holmes played Joey Potter, Dawson's neighbor and best friend.

Jackson starred as Dawson's friend Pacey Witter for all six seasons of the WB show.

In 2018, the cast reunited for the show's 20th anniversary in an Entertainment Weekly cover story.

"I remember loving the script," Van Der Beek said at the time of his initial reaction to the show. "I remember thinking, 'Everybody's amazing, and all the actors were perfectly cast ... we didn't have any expectation it was going to blow up in the way that it did."

"[I] was still a teenager, and it was nice to read a script that expressed things that I was still trying to understand for myself," Holmes added separately.

Van Der Beek died in February at age 48, following a battle with colorectal cancer, according to a note posted on his official Instagram page at that time.

After his death, Holmes shared a photo of a handwritten letter about Van Der Beek on Instagram, captioning the photo, "I formed some words with a heavy heart. This is a lot to process. I am so grateful to have shared in a piece of James’ journey. He is beloved. Kimberly, we love you and will be here always for you and your beautiful children. ❤️"
