DOCTOR STRANGE IN THE MULTIVERSE OF MADNESS Star John Krasinski Named PEOPLE's 2024 Sexiest Man Alive

John Krasinski is best known for The Office, A Quiet Place, and Jack Ryan. However, he was also the MCU's first Mister Fantastic and the actor/filmmaker has now been named PEOPLE's 2024 Sexiest Man Alive.

Believe it or not, PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive is still a thing and 2024's crown has been awarded to Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness star John Krasinski. 

The actor got his big break in The Office and has since become a bona fide action star courtesy of Prime Video's Jack Ryan (which is reportedly getting the movie treatment). Krasinski has also embarked on a successful directing career with the A Quiet Place franchise, and while IF recently underperformed, there's still a great deal of excitement to see what he does next in that arena.

Asked by PEOPLE how it felt to learn he'd been named the 2024 Sexiest Man Alive, Krasinski responded, "Just immediate blackout. Zero thoughts. Other than maybe I’m being punked. That’s not how I wake up usually, thinking, 'Is this the day that I’ll be asked to be Sexiest Man Alive?' And yet it was the day you guys did it. You really raised the bar for me."

As for how his wife, Edge of Tomorrow and one-time Black Widow hopeful Emily Blunt, reacted, he said, "I’m not supposed to tell anyone? Oh my God, this is going poorly right away. I did tell Emily, and she was very excited. There was a lot of joy involved in me telling her."

The site also, for some reason, brought up the fact Krasinski lost the role of Captain America to Chris Evans. Asked if he has any regrets, the actor and filmmaker explained, "You know, I’ve never had that. And it’s Chris Evans - look at the guy. I’ve weirdly never had that jealousy thing, because I think in a lot of ways my life has been like winning a giant radio contest."

"You got to just take it as it comes. And I really do believe that every role is meant for someone - that if it’s meant for you, it’s coming for you, and if it’s not, it’s for somebody else."

Krasinski finally joined the MCU in 2022 in Sam Raimi's Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness as a Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic Variant brutally murdered by the Scarlet Witch. The actor was a fan-favourite choice to play the hero for years, though The Last of Us star Pedro Pascal has since been cast as the main Reed. 

"I was honored to do it," Krasinski previously said of the experience. "I flew right from Budapest when we wrapped and went right to the Doctor Strange set. I'm a big fan of all those characters and that world, so to get to play in that sandbox for one day was a real thrill."

"It's totally insane. To be in a room with all those people, and again to be a part of that narrative is crazy," he recalled. "But yeah, being turned into spaghetti wasn't my end goal in life as far as how it goes in the Marvel universe, but you know what it was fun nonetheless."

Congratulations to Krasinski on being named PEOPLE's 2024 Sexiest Man Alive.

“Krasinski ‘sexiest’, People wrote-oh. Operaman say…re-count the vote-oh!” [Cover changes to feature Operaman.]

@FlixMentallo21 - if anyone under 40 gets this reference that'd make me one happy pappy. One of my favorite Weekend Update characters

@DarthOmega - Trivia question: who was Operaman referring to in the original sketch?
DarthOmega
DarthOmega - 11/13/2024, 9:15 PM
@FlixMentallo21 - I think it was Brad Pitt, and the graphic on the magazine changed to Operaman. I remember laughing my ass off when the pic changed. So that stuck out in my brain. But I think it was Brad but I could be wrong.

Still think he would've been a better choice than Pascal and he's like 4 years younger.

@soberchimera - The moment they made his version of Mr. Fantastic be the dumbest man alive, that was no longer possible

@Urubrodi - Different universe, different Reed. If they can have a goatee-less Benedict Cumberbatch Strange in that universe, they can have a smarter Krasinski Reed in another.

@soberchimera - They could do that but first impressions do matter quite a bit. In the best case scenario they put him in there to test the waters and in the worst case they were just throwing the fans a bone because of the fancastings.

@soberchimera - if youre adapting Reed Richards, undoubtedly. But Feige just wants a new Tony Stark with star power.

@Urubrodi - that would a been a different Reed from a separate universe and that's all on Waldron for being an awful writer.
