James Van Der Beek has passed away, and this is going to be very emotional for a lot of people…
Everyone remembers him from Dawson’s Creek — older Millennials and much of the Gen X crowd who fell in love with him back in the ’90s.
The show was a staple for an entire generation.
That’s why it was so upsetting when we learned that James Van Der Beek was battling cancer.
This one hurts.
He died Wednesday, according to a statement posted to the actor’s verified Instagram.
“He met his final days with courage, faith, and grace,” the statement said. “There is much to share regarding his wishes, love for humanity and the sacredness of time. Those days will come. For now we ask for peaceful privacy as we grieve our loving husband, father, son, brother, and friend.”
