However, Holmes nearly lost out on the role to none other than Hollywood fan-favorite Selma Blair.
The character of Joey was easy to root for.
Holmes seemed like the perfect fit for the role of Joey.
“And when that [audition] video showed up, it changed my whole life.”
However, the actor doesn’t hold a grudge against either of her fellow stars.
In fact, Blair praised Holmes' portrayal of Joey on the former hit series.
“In honor of #creekweek and all things new again.
I have always admired these ladies.
Even if I didn’t get the part of #joeypotter.
That role was all @katieholmes212 and I loved watching her from the start.
I auditioned for #Buffy but didn’t even come close.
