Joshua spent his early years in California. When he was eight years the family moved to Seattle, but following his parents’ divorce Joshua moved back to Vancouver with his mother and younger sister. Jackson’s mother was a casting director, and therefore it is no surprise that young Joshua turned to acting. He started with several roles in commercials before he moved to television, though it took a while until he managed to secure his first memorable role. In 1991 he appeared as a minor character in a film “Crooked Hearts”. A year later Joshua Jackson starred in the musical “Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory”. Therefore, at such young age Joshua Jackson was already accumulating his net worth.

This latter role got Joshua Jackson a contract with the William Morris Agency. Soon he got the part of Charlie, as aspiring hockey player, in “The Mighty Ducks” and its two sequels. Joshua’s appearance in these films is considered to be a big breakthrough in his career. In 1997 he also appeared in a popular teen horror movie “Scream2”, but it was the TV show “Dawson’s Creek” that made Joshua Jackson a real star as well as a millionaire. Jackson appeared in this show from 1998 to 2003 along with James Van Der Beek, Michelle Williams and Katie Holmes. Joshua portrayed Pacey Whitter, a love interest of Katie Holmes’s character. Thanks to his appearance in this show, in 1999 Jackson was included in Teen People’s list of “21 Hottest Stars Under 21” and received several Teen Choice awards.

For his part in the show Joshua Jackson was nominated for Teen Choice Award four times and even though he did not win, the show added a lot to his net worth. Overall, Joshua has been involved in over 35 films on the big screen, and more than 20 TV productions.
