People magazine says so, but did the folks at People meet Floyd R. Turbo, Aristus, LuckyCharms or any of DU's other leading men before making this decision???

(21,382 posts)Probably less than a sidewalk star on Hollywood blvd., though.
I think it's so cute how badly we want to believe that this kind of thing is actually what the public thinks.

(27,779 posts)that MG had already been steeped in some deviant variety of Catholicism since childhood, or that he has a penchant for the ol’ ultraviolence to accompany the cult’s self-flagellation practices.

(122,056 posts)that "sexiest man in the world" thing pure nonsense. As you point out, TD, we have a stellar group with wit, charm, intelligence, etc.

genxlib
(5,785 posts)But his wife is one of the all around most beautiful, talented and charming women in show business so he must have something going for him.
So by the transitive property, I will give him the thumbs up.
No doubt that my wife's charms and beauty give me more street cred than I deserve.
PS....Emily Blunt in case you don't know
Mosby
(18,066 posts)Just saying. 😀
AkFemDem
(2,413 posts)His charm is in being a "nice guy", inoffensively funny, and almost regular enough you get the sense he'd drink a beer with you. Also, he did pick up some hot bod creds as Jack Ryan. That said- he's not my (Hollywood) Sexiest Man Alive. Here's looking at you Chris Hemsworth

LuckyCharms
(19,522 posts)Looking past the character...he wasn't a bad looking guy.
Croney
(4,937 posts)The way he yearned for her... burned for her... Yes, John Krasinski is sexy, but he will always be Jim Halpert to me.

peacebuzzard
(5,341 posts)it is difficult to make the judgment based on a photo alone.
I have never seen or heard about this dude.
the alternates suggested in this post would get my vote before a one time photo.
But then again, I don't give a hoot about mass media hysteria over any one subject. (such as sexiest person alive... although I thought the story behind the chaiwala hot tea vendor in Pakistan to be interesting for a dime to riches story)
Dulcinea
(7,813 posts)But my idea of sexy is hockey legend Mario Lemieux. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_Lemieux

(25 posts)why they picked him for Jack Ryan. I think he’s a little funny looking. Just a little. Sexiest man alive. Nah.

I didn't actually recognize him in that photo, which makes him look like the actor who plays Loudermilk.

(10,120 posts)My SO is aware that I have a celebrity crush on Zahn. I don't keep a secret.
I can't explain my crush, it just is.
This was filmed around 2009.
Upthevibe
(9,386 posts)I totally agree!
He's amazing in Dark Winds. I can't wait for the third season which is supposed to come out in March, 2025.....The friend that told me about Dark Winds also has a crush on Zahn McClarnon...

(8,168 posts)who was asked by a MAGAt whether Melania or Jill was sexier. He replied, "I don't know, I've never seen Jill naked."
Has anyone ever seen John naked?
applegrove
(124,444 posts)and dances like nobody is watching on a boat. It is a Rogers Cable and phone commercial. He dances to Taylor Swifts "Shake it Off". It's a very cute commercial. A man in a fishing boat catches him dancing and immediately starts busting some moves. John that goes back to dancing around the boat. I love watching it.

(2,080 posts)I don't think so...
I love Festus (sp?) though...
and Oh!
Zahn McClarnon - I love him like crazy!
But none are as hot as my husband - he's absolutely adorable and very sexy!
mnhtnbb
(32,267 posts)that in my opinion, there is not a sexier man alive than Sam Heughan.

(9,298 posts)However his wife just starred in a movie against Ryan Gosling , and the daughters they have from their marriage have a crush on Ryan. I love Ryan Gosling, married older woman, has two daughters and says women are higher creatures on an evolutionary scale. Seems like a nice Canadian guy.

I never watched the office but the two of them were incredible in ‘A Quiet Place.’
