Hollywood is in shock after Dawson’s Creek star James Van Der Beek revealed that he has been diagnosed with stage 3 cancer — and is now auctioning off his most personal memorabilia to help fund his treatment and raise awareness.
The 48-year-old actor, best known for his iconic role as Dawson Leery in the beloved teen drama, made the heartbreaking announcement in a deeply emotional video shared on social media Monday night.
“I never thought I’d be here,” Van Der Beek said through tears. “But I’m fighting — not just for myself, but for my wife, my kids, and for anyone out there who’s ever been told they don’t have a chance.”
🎬 Selling Memories to Save His Life
As part of his effort to cover mounting medical expenses, Van Der Beek announced that he will auction several pieces of memorabilia from his career, including scripts, costumes, and never-before-seen behind-the-scenes photos from Dawson’s Creek, Varsity Blues, and other projects.
“Every item has a story,” he said. “They represent beautiful moments in my life — and letting them go is my way of moving forward.”
Sources close to the actor say the decision was not about money alone but also about turning pain into purpose, with part of the proceeds going toward cancer research foundations.
💬 A Wave of Support from Hollywood and Fans
The revelation sent shockwaves through Hollywood, with co-stars and fans flooding social media with messages of love and encouragement.
Actress Katie Holmes, Van Der Beek’s former on-screen love interest, wrote:
“James has always been one of the strongest people I know. We’re all behind you — always.”
Meanwhile, fans have begun sharing clips from Dawson’s Creek, using the hashtag #FightWithJames, which has already trended worldwide.
❤️ “I’m Choosing Hope”
Despite the grim diagnosis, Van Der Beek remains defiant.
“I’m not done yet,” he said. “I’ve got more stories to tell, more love to give, and more sunsets to watch with my family. I’m choosing hope — every single day.”
Doctors say his treatment will involve surgery followed by aggressive chemotherapy, but those close to him describe his spirit as “unbreakable.”
