(Web Desk) - American actor and filmmaker John Burke Krasinski is now People magazine's Sexiest Man Alive for 2024.
During the 'The Late Show' with Stephen Colbert, the magazine announced the actor-writer-director as its pick Tuesday night.
The following development arrived after the internet was confused about Benny Blanco being crowned the winner for this year.
Starred in 'The Office' before launching the 'Quiet Place' franchise, Krasinski joked in an interview with the magazine that he's hoping his wife, fellow actor Emily Blunt, makes good on a promise to plaster the cover as wallpaper at their home. He takes the mantle from last year's honouree, Patrick Dempsey
Krasinski even told People that his immediate reaction to the honour was “just immediate blackout, actually. Zero thoughts.” He added that he thought he might be getting pranked.
The American actor gained fame after playing the floppy-haired, lanky Jim on the US version of the mockumentary The Office and transitioned into the clean-cut, muscular action star on Amazon's Jack Ryan, playing the Tom Clancy character previously portrayed by Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford and Ben Affleck on the big screen.
He also co-wrote, directed and starred in A Quiet Place that grew into a three-film franchise. He created the immensely popular pandemic-era webseries Some Good News.
In 2024, he debuted his sixth directorial effort, IF, a film about imaginary friends that also featured Blunt.
After Krasisnki was named as Sexiest Man Alive for 2024 by People's magazine, his wife Emily Brunt said that she would even like to wallpaper their house with the cover.
