Actor John Krasinski, best known for his role as Jim Halpert on “The Office,” has been named PEOPLE’s 2024 Sexiest Man Alive. The 45-year-old actor, who has also directed and starred in films like “A Quiet Place” and “IF,” was surprised by the news, admitting he initially thought it was a prank.

Krasinski’s wife, actress Emily Blunt, was reportedly “very excited” by the announcement and even joked that she’d wallpaper their house with the cover. Krasinski, who shares two daughters with Blunt, says the new title won’t change much in their life, besides perhaps making him do more household chores.

The actor has been steadily building a successful career as a filmmaker, proving his versatility beyond his comedic roles. He credits his wife for his personal and professional growth, emphasizing the constant learning and evolving they experience together.
