James Van der Beek, star of the series ‘Dawson Grows’, has died at the age of 48 from cancer. This was reported by his family on social networks, where they published an official statement: «He reached his final days with courage, faith and serenity. There is much to share about his desires, his love for humanity, and the sacredness of time. That time will come. For now, we ask for privacy.
Two years ago, the actor had revealed on his Instagram account that he was suffering from colorectal cancer and that he had been carrying the disease in private. After the announcement of his death, multiple Hollywood personalities have mourned the loss of the actor, from Lana del Rey to Jamie-Lynn Sigler: “You were everything good in this world,” the actress wrote.
‘Dawson Grows’ was one of the most iconic series of the late 90s, chronicling the lives of a group of teenagers from high school to university. Van der Beek was one of the first to announce his presence at the series reunion, but was unable to participate due to his worsening illness.
