“Matt and I, we were standing backstage and, as you get closer, I think we were both getting into the sweaty palm moment,” he explained in a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

“I think literally we were talking about, ‘How are we going to walk out here? Are we too stiff? Are we trying to play it cool?’”

As they were figuring it out, he heard the music.

“We’re literally in the moment of like, ‘Well, I don’t know. What do you think?’ ‘I don’t know. What do you think?’ And we take our first step, and they start playing the [Dawson’s Creek] theme [song], and that was just a genuine laugh… That was me being caught off guard and laughing.”

Joshua recently attended the premiere of Grotesquerie with someone new amid rumors about his love life.
