Dawson’s Creek alum Joshua Jackson gave his honest opinion on extramarital affairs.
The 44-year-old actor, who has three-year-old Janie with wife and actress Jodie Turner-Smith, explores infidelity in the new TV adaptation of Fatal Attraction.
The series will see Mean Girls’ Lizzy Caplan take on the iconic role of Alex Forrest, a woman who refuses to be ignored as she pursues a married man following a brief affair.
Joshua plays married man Dan Gallagher, while The Good Wife’s Amanda Peet will take on the role of wronged wife Beth Gallagher.
Talking about his new project, Joshua also explained that he believes in real-life relationships, someone straying doesn’t necessarily spell the end.
‘I think an affair can be forgiven,’ he told the Sunday Times.
‘We’re all grown-ups. No one wants to be cheated on and there is massive repair to be done.’
The Mighty Ducks star also claimed that meeting wife Jodie in 2018 was the ‘right moment’ in his life as he believes if they had met when he was younger, they would have had a ‘torrid affair.’
This comes after the Queen and Slim actress, 33, revealed giving birth to a light-skinned baby taught her to have her ‘own conversations around colourism’.
‘I did have this mini pause, where I was like: “She’s going to be walking through the world not only having an experience that I did not have, but looking like people that, in a way, I’d always felt a little bit tormented by,”‘ she told Elle Magazine.
She added: ‘Now that I’ve got this little, tiny, light-skinned boss, I feel like it’s the universe teaching me lessons.
‘I’ve been given a daughter who looks this way to heal my own conversations around colourism’.
Fatal Attraction will be released on Paramount Plus in the UK on Monday, May 1.
