Aurora Borealis - After today, there will be only two more sold out showings at Tribeca. 
If you were able to attend a screening and would like to share your reactions, feel free to send an email to us.  We'd love to know what the fans thought of the film!

The New York Post made a mention about the film today, and the reaction is great!

" Some smart film executive should pick the phone up right now and call sales rep Andrew Herwitz. He represents the beautiful new film, "Aurora Borealis" starring Donald Sutherland, Louise Fletcher, Joshua Jackson and Juliette Lewis. The film premiered Friday at the Tribeca Film Festival, and the word is wonderful. "

New Image Gallery "pre" launch!

I've decided to do a "pre-launch" of our new image gallery since I'm no longer updating the current one. This will allow others to view any updates or changes made to Josh-Jackson.net.  Additions to the new gallery are still being made and until further notice, our current gallery will still be available.

Please visit and enjoy the new Josh Jackson Network Image Gallery!

"Aurora Borealis" - has three more showings at Tribeca this week.  For those of you that were unable to purchase tickets to attend the sold out screenings, we look forward to providing you with reviews from some of our resident visitors in the near future.  However, if you were able to attend a screening and would like to share your reactions, feel free to submit or send an email to us.  We'd love to know what the fans thought of the film!

Dawson's Creek Season Five DVD - The DVDs will be available on May 3, 2005, and can be pre-ordered through Amazon.  (all pre-orders help support Josh-Jackson.net) 

Based on the official site for the show, we are unable to locate any additional features or details for this particular set. There is a full ad available to view from the official site, which shows two of the four discs; featuring "Jen" and "Joey".  You can see the full ad by clicking here.

Per DawsonsCreekMusic.com, due to copyright and licensing issues, a couple of the scenes/songs with Katie Holmes and the band have been deleted from the respective episode.  This means that there will be some scenes with Josh that would be removed as well.  We've also heard that the Season Six DVD set is scheduled to be released around Fall/Winter 2005.  Also, DCMusic.com is still set to update their music list very soon for the Season Five set.

This week is also the final curtain call for "A Life in the Theatre", which will end on April 30th, 2005.  I wanted to take a moment to say thanks to everyone for sending in your reviews, stories and fan photos to the site!  The play has had an amazing run in the West End and the fans truly went to great lengths (and distances) to see Josh make his West End stage debut.
