The role of Michelle Williams in "Dawson's Creek" may have been her big difference, but the actress does not seem to have the best memories of her work in the television series.
The Oscar nominee met Patricia Clarkson for Variety's Actors on Actors series of interviews and revealed that the WB show's experience had deterred her from holding another television position for years.
Williams said that doing "Dawson's Creek" for six and a half years was "an amazing learning experience", but it left her uncomfortable.

"We did 22 episodes a year and you got scripts at the last minute and you had no input," she told Clarkson. "It was a bit like a factory job … it was a formula."
Williams was in the series – which also featured James Van Der Beek, Joshua Jackson and Katie Holmes – from 1998 to 2003. She was only 22 when the series came to an end. Her return to the screen took years and for good reason, Williams, now 38, insisted.
"I do not think I've ever done television in the meantime and now, for fear of losing my job," Williams admitted.
She then went to the movies and played roles such as Marilyn Monroe in "My Week With Marilyn", which earned her the Golden Globe in 2012. She also starred in "Brokeback Mountain" in 2005 and "Manchester by the Sea" "in 2016.

Williams returned to television in 2019 for the limited FX series "Fosse / Verdon", starring Gwen Verdon, winner of the Tony Award. She said yes to the project because the support is "different".
"I could see that it was true and that it was something I should open," she says. Williams also said his chance to work with Oscar winner Sam Rockwell was an important part of his decision-making.
"I've always wanted to work with him, always," she admitted.
