John Krasinski has been named People magazine's 'Sexiest Man Alive' for 2024, with the big reveal happening Tuesday night on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. The announcement put an end to recent online rumours after the magazine image featuring Benny Blanco stirred up confusion, causing fans to believe he had won this year’s title. Krasinski follows last year’s honoree, actor Patrick Dempsey. 

Best known for his role as Jim Halpert on 'The Office', Krasinski has since evolved into an action star with the Jack Ryan series and a creative powerhouse behind the hit horror franchise 'A Quiet Place'.

John Krasinski on being named 'Sexiest Man Alive' for 2024

In an interview with People, Krasinski expressed disbelief over the title, describing his initial reaction as “just immediate blackout... Zero thoughts.” He even wondered if it was all an elaborate prank. He joked that his wife, actress Emily Blunt, might follow through on her long-standing joke to turn his cover photo into wallpaper around their home. 

He also said that Blunt was “very excited” when she heard the news. “There was a lot of joy involved in me telling her,” he added. 

About John Krasinski

Krasinski’s journey to superstardom began with ‘The Office’, where his portrayal of the witty, lovable Jim made him a household name. Since then, he has successfully transitioned into action roles, portraying CIA analyst Jack Ryan, a character previously brought to life by actors like Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, and Ben Affleck.  

Krasinski has also left his mark behind the camera, co-writing, directing, and starring in ‘A Quiet Place’, which grew into a successful trilogy. During the pandemic, he created Some Good News, a feel-good web series that resonated with viewers worldwide. 

This year, Krasinski also released his sixth directorial film, ‘IF’, which explores the world of imaginary friends and features his wife, Emily Blunt.

The couple, who share two daughters, are known for their playful relationship, and Krasinski hinted the new title might lead to even more laughs at home. 

“I think it’s going to make me do more household chores,” he joked to People. “After this comes out, she’ll be like, ‘All right, that means you’re going to really earn it here at home.’” 

People magazine’s ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ title has been previously bestowed on stars like Paul Rudd, Michael B. Jordan, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, John Legend, Idris Elba, Chris Hemsworth, and Channing Tatum.
