Joshua Jackson is reflecting on the acting role that made him an overnight star. The actor starred in six seasons of “Dawson’s Creek” as Pacey Witter, a role that would see him become a teen heartthrob and the center of an uncomfortable amount of attention. “I wouldn’t want to go back to my twenties again, that amount of angst.
