US actor John Krasinski named People magazine's 2024 Sexiest Man

US actor and film maker John Krasinski has been named as People magazine's 2024 Sexiest Man Alive.

Speaking about his award the Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan actor said his wife British actress Emily Blunt, was "very excited"

He is best known for playing Jim Halpert on the US version of The Office, also directed and starred alongside Blunt in 2018 thriller A Quiet Place, which spawned two sequels.

The Office actor said there was "a lot of joy involved" when Oppenheimer star Blunt discovered her husband was named this year’s Sexiest Man Alive.

"I do think it’s going to make me do more households chores, but I’m willing to take the cons with the pros to be honest with you," Mr Krasinski, 45, told People magazine.

"I think after the cover comes out she’ll be like, 'alright, that means now you’re really going to earn it here at home’."

The Aloha actor said he knew the Mary Poppins actress was the one for him "the second I met her".

Mr Krasinski said: "It’s that beautiful thing where when you’re married to someone, you’re constantly learning and you’re constantly changing, and you’re constantly evolving, and I’m so lucky to go through that with her."

Most recently, he wrote, directed and starred in film If, about a young girl who embarks on a magical adventure to reconnect forgotten imaginary friends (IFs) with their children.

The Star On The Wall actor said his two children, who he shares with Ms Blunt, thought he was an accountant before he brought them in on the creative process of the film "where they really got to see what I do".

He described parenting as "a juggle when you’re travelling around the world" but "luckily we’ve got great kids", adding: "To be a dad has changed my life entirely."
