Joshua Jackson Likens ‘Dawson’s Creek’ Audition To ‘The Hunger Games’: “They Take You To The Warner Bros. Ranch”

Joshua Jackson revealed that his intense audition process for *Dawson's Creek* nearly led him down a dark path—nearly. After trying out for multiple roles, including one in *The WB's* Hunger Games-style show, he landed on Pacey Witter but felt uncertain about which role would ultimately stick. During the final selection, he recalled how he and his co-stars were subjected to a "Hunger Games"-like gauntlet before receiving the news that they’d found their spots in the series. Now, Joshua stars in *Dawson's Creek* alongside his former *The Doctor* co-star, James Van Der Beek, and others like Katie Holmes and Michelle Williams.
