Dawson’s Creek alum recalls learning his character, Jack, would come out as gay – and spills on recent cast reunion (via toofab)
He'll play Mr. Honey on the show, a character who's being set up as an adversary of sorts to the core four as they plan for college. Though his name may be "Honey" he's "not so sweet," promised Smith.

It was a crazy experience back then and you're right, look at every single show now, it's pretty amazing," he said.
"I remember the day Kevin Williamson came down to Wilmington, North Carolina ... He said, 'Kerr, let's go get some coffee,''" said Smith. "I went, 'Oh no, am I fired?' And he throws this idea, 'We want to go down a different avenue with Jack,' and I go, 'What does that mean?'" Bringing everything full circle: Berlanti is also one of the executive producers on "Riverdale."

"They're really young, in their 20s," he said, "and I've got a good 20 years on them now! It's interesting, but yes, there's a whole new category of people watching it now.
