Katie Holmes continued to stoke plastic surgery speculation on Saturday night as she attended the Happy Hours premiere at the 2026 Tribeca Festival.

The 47-year-old actress was joined by co-star Joshua Jackson, also 47, who was previously her co-star on the late 90s teen drama Dawson's Creek.

Holmes displayed a youthful glow on the red carpet as she showed off natural-looking makeup complete with mauve-toned matte lipstick.

The filmmaker drew attention to her visage by pulling half of her tousled, shoulder-length brunette locks back.  

She was clad in a cream-colored satin dress that boasted cap sleeves and a lacy collar. 

Her look was rounded out with a pair of pointed-toe black heels.

For his part, Jackson was dressed in a navy blue suit and button-up white shirt. 

He added a pair of black leather loafers and looked typically handsome with a light, grizzled beard. 

The actor dated Holmes during the early days of filming Dawson's Creek between 1998 and 1999.

The duo starred as Joey Potter (Holmes) and Pacey Witter (Jackson) on the series more than two decades ago.

They reunited to shoot Happy Hours – written and directed by Holmes – in New York City last summer.

The romantic-drama follows divorced photographer Liz and travel writer Andrew, former high school sweethearts who reconnect as adults.

'We hadn’t worked together in 25 years, and we’ve changed a lot,' Holmes told Variety about acting alongside Jackson. 

'We also wanted to give ourselves the space to show different sides of ourselves and to not portray these people we’re known for.'

Ahead of filming last year, the actress gushed about her friendship with Jackson in an Instagram post, writing: 'I am so very grateful to be working again with so many of my wonderful friends on this film HAPPY HOURS. 

'And working with Josh after so many years is a testament to friendship.' 

When she more recently posted an Instagram shot of them promoting the film, a fan commented, 'They should be a couple,' which Holmes gave a like. 

But she clarified to Variety that the love story depicted in Happy Hours is not inspired by her life.

Instead, the idea developed following the isolation sown by the pandemic. 

'We are seemingly so connected, but we’re still so isolated emotionally,' she noted. 'There’s dating app fatigue; it’s not easy for people to come together.'

Speaking to Rolling Stone about Jackson in 1998, she said: 'I'm just going to say that I met somebody last year, I fell in love, I had my first love, and it was something so incredible and indescribable.

'I feel so fortunate because he's now one of my best friends. It's weird, it's almost like a Dawson-and-Joey type thing now.

'He's been in the business so long, and he's really helped me. I respect him as a friend and as a professional.'
