Joshua Jackson has called Michelle Williams's acting success "surreal".
The Fringe star praised his former Dawson's Creek co-star, who has previously been nominated for two Academy Awards for her work in Blue Valentine and Brokeback Mountain
Williams has been nominated for a BAFTA for her role in My Week with Marilyn, and may be in contention for a third Oscar nod when the nominations are revealed later today (January 24).
"It's surreal in that it would be surreal to see any of your friends [up for an Oscar]. It's amazing. She's an excellent actress," Jackson told MTV News.
"Of all of us, when we finished that show, she was the one who had the clearest idea about what it was that she wanted to do. To be able to go out and achieve that is no small feat. I just think it's wonderful."
Jackson jokingly added: "You think she would be bored of it by now. She has to do a guns and explosions movie. 'Come on! Enough! Quit giving me these awards!'"
Williams picked up a Golden Globe award for 'Best Actress (Musical or Comedy)' earlier this month for My Week with Marilyn.
