Let the office debates begin — John Krasinski is People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive for 2024.

The magazine announced the actor-writer-director Tuesday night during “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”

Krasinski starred in “The Office” before launching the “Quiet Place” franchise and helming the action series “Jack Ryan.” He joked in an interview with the magazine that he hopes his wife, fellow actor Emily Blunt, makes good on her promise to plaster the cover like wallpaper in their home.

He takes the mantle of last year’s honoree, Patrick Dempsey.

Colbert joked before the announcement was made that he was sure he would be the pick. Then he said he “really thought this was going to be my year. Now. Who are we kidding? I’m never going to be the sexiest man alive.”

And during a pre-recorded skit, Colbert and Krasinski introduced Krasinski’s “6-step program” for getting sexy.

Krasinski, 45, told People that his immediate reaction to the honor was “basically just an instant blackout. No thoughts.” He added that he thought he might be being fooled.

He rose to fame as the lanky, lanky Jim in the US version of the mockumentary ‘The Office’ and transformed into the clean-cut, muscular action star in Amazon’s ‘Jack Ryan’, playing the Tom Clancy character previously played by Alec . Baldwin, Harrison Ford and Ben Affleck on the big screen. He also wrote, directed and co-starred in “A Quiet Place,” which has grown into a three-film franchise, and created the short-lived but wildly popular pandemic-era web series “Some Good News.”

Earlier this year, he debuted his sixth directorial role, “IF,” a film about imaginary friends that also starred Blunt.

They have two daughters together.

Krasinski told People that the honor will likely lead to more than just jokes at home.

“I think that will make me do more house chores,” he joked.

Now in its 40th year, Mel Gibson was the first Sexiest Man Alive. Other previous recipients include Brad Pitt, George Clooney, John F. Kennedy Jr., David Beckham, Michael B. Jordan, John Legend, Dwayne Johnson, Paul Rudd and Pierce Brosnan.
