The 45-year-old "The Office" star and "A Quiet Place" director replaces Patrick Dempsey, the "Grey's Anatomy" veteran affectionately known as "McDreamy," who was honored last year.
People magazine has named the Sexiest Man Alive every year since 1985, when Mel Gibson received the title for the first time. The lone exception came in 1993, when Richard Gere and Cindy Crawford were crowned the Sexiest Couple Alive; no replacement was nominated in 1994.

"We receive a lot of queries about the show and 'What about a reunion?' "And none of it is up to us," Greenfield said. "It's so much about Liz Meriwether, who created the show, and what she would do differently and how she would direct the show and if she would want to do a reunion."
