John Krasinski Shines in Off-Broadway Debut, Wife Emily Blunt Cheers Him On

Published: June 13, 2025

John Krasinski made his Off-Broadway debut on Wednesday, June 11, and had a special someone supporting him in the audience - his wife of 14 years, Emily Blunt.

The Office alum and PEOPLE's reigning Sexiest Man Alive, 45, stars in Angry Alan, the darkly comedic one-man play by Penelope Skinner that officially opened at the brand-new Studio Seaview theater in New York City.

Blunt, 42, was among the celebrity guests named in a press release shared with PEOPLE on Friday, June 13. She attended alongside stars like Sienna Miller, Jeremy Strong, Naomi Watts, Billy Crudup, Laura Linney, and more.

John's costar in the Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan series on Prime Video, Michael Kelly, was also there. The friends were photographed sharing a laugh together as they embraced after the show.

Directed by Tony Award winner Sam Gold and created with Don Mackay, Angry Alan follows Roger - a man recently divorced and demoted, feeling untethered in a world that seems to have left him behind. When an online influencer offers a sense of clarity, Roger dives headfirst into a digital echo chamber in search of meaning and validation.

The play explores themes of identity, extremism, and the personal cost of chasing certainty in an ever-changing world.

The limited production is currently scheduled for just 10 weeks, through Aug. 3.

Emily Blunt Supports Husband John Krasinski on Opening Night

Emily Blunt was spotted backstage with Sienna Miller at the opening night of Angry Alan on June 11, 2025.

John and Emily, who married in 2010 and share daughters Hazel, 11, and Violet, 8, have been vocal supporters of each other's work.

"I wouldn't be anywhere in my life without her," he said, in a 2022 interview with Parade. "On a daily basis, but certainly ... career-wise, as a dad, she pushes me to be better every single day at everything I do."

“It’s that beautiful thing where when you’re married to someone, you’re constantly learning and changing and evolving,” he told PEOPLE in his Sexiest Man Alive cover story. “And I’m so lucky to go through all that with her.”

Tickets for Angry Alan are available on sale now.
