* {{Adorkable}}: Became a major [[TropeCodifier codifier]] of this in the early 2000s, thanks to his role as Jim on ''The Office''.

* BadassBeard: He can grow a very impressive one when needed.
* DeadpanSnarker: Both onscreen and in real life. Rather fitting that he's married to Emily Blunt who is also one.
* ManlyTears: He's capable of a good, manly cry.
* MrFanservice: While his adorkability has always been attractive to many, Krasinski's elevation from comic relief to action hero in works like ''[[Film/ThirteenHoursTheSecretSoldiersOfBenghazi 13 Hours]]'' and ''Series/JackRyan'' have had a [[http://akns-images.eonline.com/eol_images/Entire_Site/2016016/rs_634x1024-160116082053-634.john-krasinski.cm.11616.jpg noticeable impact on his looks]], saying the least.

Despite gaining a reputation for portraying the comic relief in projects for a large part of professional career, Krasinski saw a noticeable transition towards serious drama and action roles during UsefulNotes/TheNewTens, appearing in works like ''Film/ThirteenHoursTheSecretSoldiersOfBenghazi'' and ''Film/AQuietPlace''. In 2018, he became the latest actor to portray the popular Creator/TomClancy character Literature/JackRyan on his eponymous Creator/{{Amazon|Studios}} series [[Series/JackRyan of the same name]].

Krasinski's voice is also fairly [[RecognizableBySound distinctive and recognizable]], having done voiceover work in projects as like ''WesternAnimation/MonstersUniversity'' and ''Anime/TheWindRises''. He's also done television ads for businesses like Esurance.

His personal life is pretty A-List; Creator/GeorgeClooney, Creator/MerylStreep, Creator/JimmyKimmel, Creator/JasonSegel, and Creator/MattDamon are just a few of his close friends, and have all worked with him in some capacity. He's been married to actress Creator/EmilyBlunt since 2010, with whom he has two daughters, and his brother-in-law (though marriage [[note]]specifically, Blunt's sister[[/note]]) is actor Creator/StanleyTucci.

* UglyGuyHotWife: He's not really "ugly," but he is married to Creator/EmilyBlunt, and he's mentioned that he's well aware that he married ''up.'' Though, as noted up in MrFanservice, the gap has narrowed considerably in recent years.
