John Krasinski, who is best known for his role in famous sitcom The Office , has been named as People Magazine’s 2024 "Sexiest Man Alive”. According to People , the 45-year-old actor’s name was revealed in a surprised announcement made by Stephen Colbert on his talk show The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Tuesday evening. Krasinski, who had a brief Marvel cameo as Mr Fantastic in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , reacted to the surprising announcement.

The A Quiet Place actor explained as he joked about it, saying, “The only person I slipped and told was, the day we did the shoot, I went to Matt Damon’s birthday party.” Krasinski, who has been married to the Oppenheimer actress Emily Blunt since 2010, continued, “When I walked in, yep, name drop, don’t worry about it when I walked in, he was having such a good birthday, and I was late to the party." "And he was like ‘oh, man, why are you late? For what?’ and I was like, ‘People’s Sexiest!” Krasinski has taken the title from Greys Anatomy actor Patrick Dempsey, who was crowned the 2023's "Sexiest Man Alive".
