Joshua Jackson breaks down his career from DawsonsCreek to LittleFiresEverywhere

The adaptation of Celeste Ng’s novel of the same name stars Witherspoon as Elena Richardson, a well-off suburban mother of four and a small-town newspaper reporter in the 1990s who befriends her new mysterious tenant and her teenaged daughter Pearl . Jackson plays Bill, Elena’s attorney husband. As Elena digs into Mia’s past, all while trying to keep up the perfect home , Bill seems to have quietly faded from of their marriage and into the background.

But, Jackson points out, “Little Fires Everywhere” is more about the women than the men of the story. “First thing that I said to Reese, Kerry and to [series creator] Liz Tigelaar was, ‘As an audience member, as a person who reads a lot of scripts, it’s amazing to read a script and a whole narrative arc that’s completely from the female perspective,’” Jackson says.

And leave it to Turner-Smith to become an unofficial “Little Fires” cheerleader with some very cheeky tweeting. In one tweet, she asked her followers for GIFs of a scene featuring Jackson in a pair of tighty-whities. “Little did I know in 30 years all I really needed to do was get into some ugly dad underwear and this is what people have really been waiting for,” Jackson says.
