John Krasinski has officially snagged the title of People magazine’s “Sexiest Man Alive” for 2024! The big reveal came on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Tuesday night, putting an end to some funny online mix-ups. (Yes, for a brief moment, folks thought Benny Blanco had won thanks to a random magazine clip!) Taking over from last year’s honoree, Patrick Dempsey, Krasinski joins the ranks of heartthrobs like Paul Rudd, Michael B. Jordan, and Idris Elba.
Krasinski, who became a household name as Jim on The Office, has come a long way from his days of pranking Dwight and crushing on Pam. Since then, he’s proved himself as a Hollywood powerhouse, directing A Quiet Place (a fan-favorite horror series) and starring as Jack Ryan. When People asked about the honor, he joked that his wife, actress Emily Blunt, might finally follow through on her long-standing joke about using his new magazine cover as wallpaper in their home. “When I heard, I just blanked out, like, ‘Is this real?’” he laughed.

But for Krasinski, the journey hasn’t just been about Hollywood glitz. He recently directed IF, a sweet story about imaginary friends, starring Blunt. Together, they’re not only rocking the red carpet but raising two daughters and building a life that’s both grounded and glamorous.
As for any new duties at home? Krasinski joked that his new “sexy” status might mean he’ll be on dish duty more often. “I can already hear her saying, ‘Sexiest Man Alive? Great! That means you’re on cleanup duty!’”
From Scranton paper sales to global heartthrob status, Krasinski’s journey has been nothing short of legendary—now officially sealed with one of pop culture’s most coveted titles.
