People magazine has named John Krasinski the 2024 Sexiest Man Alive.
On Tuesday’s edition of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” Krasinski was announced as the newest recipient of the prestigious title. On social media, the magazine also posted a picture of its latest cover.
Host Stephen Colbert pretended to be angry over not receiving the coveted title during the reveal. To reassure Colbert, Krasinski then came on screen and said, “It’s okay, you’re not the Sexiest Man Alive, but who cares? Who is it? Apparently, except for me.
Then, in a humorous video that looked like an infomercial from the 1980s, Krasinski gave Colbert advice on how to be sexy.
Krasinski’s most well-known role was playing Jim Halpert for nine seasons on “The Office.” Alongside his wife, actress Emily Blunt, he also directed and starred in the 2018 movie “A Quiet Place.” He later directed the follow-up in 20.
He also played Jack Ryan in the TV show “Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan” on Prime Video from 2018 to 2023, . Last month, a film based on the series was revealed.
Krasinski made a joke about how he couldn’t understand Blunt when he informed her about his romantic accomplishment because “there was so much laughter on the other end of the phone.”
“Greys Anatomy” actor Patrick Dempsey, who won the title of 2023 Sexiest Man Alive, is replaced by Krasinski.
