Actor James Van Der Beek, famous for his role in the series 'Dawson's Creek', passed away at the age of 48 due to colon cancer. The announcement was made on his social media accounts, highlighting that the actor died peacefully, with courage and grace in his final days. Van Der Beek was diagnosed with colon cancer in the second half of 2023, but he only made this public in November 2024.

He began to notice changes in his bowel habits, a common symptom of the disease, and decided to undergo a screening test, which confirmed stage three cancer. In addition to 'Dawson's Creek', Van Der Beek also appeared in other famous productions, such as 'Varsity Blues' and 'Don’t Trust the B---- in Apartment 23', and participated in 'Dancing with the Stars'. He is survived by a family of six children.
