‘Dawson’s Creek’ Revival With Original Cast Almost Happened, Creator Kevin Williamson Says

Kevin Williamson, creator of Dawson's Creek, revealed that revival talks with the original cast took place but did not materialize, as shared in an exclusive May 2025 interview on The Waterfront set.
These discussions emerged after COVID-19 charity reunions and during a reboot craze, though scheduling conflicts prevented synchronization among Williamson, James Van Der Beek, Katie Holmes, and Michelle Williams.
Williamson explained that the cast showed interest and that the revival attempt was positive, but timing issues and ongoing projects like Scream 7 and The Waterfront hindered progress.
He said, "We did it and it was good," but emphasized the story should return in a new form rather than a reboot, possibly focusing on the characters' children in the future.
The outcome suggests no imminent Dawson's Creek revival with original cast, as they continue individual careers, while Williamson debuts The Waterfront at the ATX TV Festival on May 29, 2025.
