Selma Blair Says She 'Loved Watching' Katie Holmes In Dawson's Creek -- After Creator Reveals SHE Was Almost Joey!

It’s impossible to imagine anyone else as Joey in Dawson’s Creek… or is it??
Creator Kevin Williamson told EW last week that it was in fact Selma Blair who was his #1 choice — until Katie Holmes came along of course.

He revealed:

“I really loved Selma until, of course, I got the infamous videotape from the basement of the Holmes family in Toledo, Ohio. And when that video showed up, it changed my whole life.”

Selma’s social media must have lit up with comments because over the weekend she posted a response that was pure class along with a throwback pic that was pure nostalgia:

In honor of #creekweek and all things new again. I have always admired these ladies. Even if I didn’t get the part of #joeypotter . That role was all @katieholmes212 and I loved watching her from the start. I auditioned for #Buffy but didn’t even come close. But I have a friend for life 💛 love you @sarahmgellar this was the night we won #bestkiss #mtvmovieawards2000A post shared by Selma Blair (@selmablair) on Mar 31, 2018 at 7:18pm PDT

Dang! We knew she was almost with Buffy, we didn’t know she almost was Buffy! LOLz!

Would YOU have liked Selma as Joey??
