Inside John Krasinski's transformation from The Office geek to action hero hunk as he's named 2024's Sexiest Man Alive (and his wife's hilarious reaction!)


Two decades on from his breakthrough role, John Krasinski is far from the bookish office type and has transformed into an action hero hunk.

However, he opted to bulk up for his 2016 role in 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi, where he played a former US Navy Seal tasked with defending an American diplomatic compound in Libya against a wave of terrorist attacks. Colbert has previously bestowed the title — chosen based on physical attractiveness, charisma, and cultural impact — on Paul Rudd in 2021, after subjecting him to a number of hilarious sexy man tests. The 1990s brought covers for Richard Gere (1999), Harrison Ford (1998), George Clooney (1997), Denzel Washington (1996), Brad Pitt (1995), Nick Nolte (1992), the late Patrick Swayze (1991) and Tom Cruise (1990).
