Michelle Williams received her fifth Oscar nomination for her work on The Fables. After the announcement was made, Williams’ ex Dawson’s Creek Co-stars Busy Philipps and Joshua Jackson took to social media to send their congratulations.
Philipps shared a photo of Williams from her time on the WB drama on Instagram with the caption, “BRB – I’m just going back in time and telling this kid she’s going to have 5 OSCAR NOMINATIONS in the next 20 years. And a BEAUTIFUL family. And let love surround you. (And NICE CLOTHES) But tbh- that probably matches what I told her at the time.
“I love you MW. Forever proud of you for building the life and career you dreamed of, even though the absolutely overwhelming sadness of being human sometimes made you wonder if you could do it,” Philipps added. But then you’ll dig deep and try again. That’s one of my favorite things about you. You NEVER stopped trying. A new path, a new recipe, a new parenting style, a new writer, a new approach to work, a new love, a new role…but always the same loving brilliant soft sensitive funny wild thoughtful beautiful beautiful BEAUTIFUL you.”
Jackson, who played Pacey Witter in the young adult drama, reshared Philip’s post on his Instagram stories and posted a message about it.
“5 Oscar nominations!!! Holy Moses,” he wrote, before joking about Williams’ photo, adding: “I don’t know, but I assume it was taken in a seedy bar when we were all kids. What a wonderful trip you had. Congratulations!”
Williams plays Mitzi Fabelman in the Steven Spielberg film, which was inspired by his own life. Mitzi is loosely based on Spielberg’s mother, and he recently said he was inspired to cast her The Fables after seeing her in the FX series Foss/Verdon.
