The above photo of Paul Rudd is from this month. It is from an event celebrating the beginnings of The narrowing next door, the new Apple TV + series based on the podcast of the same name where Rudd stars alongside Will Ferrell in a terrifying and confusing true crime story.
If you took away the backdrop that says The narrowing next door, However, it could be a photo from any time over the past 30 years, because somehow the 52-year-old star does not age. And now he has a new realization that he can add to this supernatural anti-aging ability: he has been named People The magazine’s sexiest man for 2021.
“I’m going to lean into it hard,” he said People. “I’m going to own this. I’m not going to try and say to myself, “Oh, I’m so modest. I have business cards made. But all of my friends will destroy me, and I expect them to, and that’s why they are my friends.
Rudd follows Michael B. Jordan (2020), John Legend (2019) and Idris Elba (2018) to be the 36th man to carry the magazine’s title. The first, in 1985, was Mel Gibson.

If it looks like Rudd is widely regarded in Hollywood and film industry circles … you’d be right. He is currently filming his next Marvel Cinematic Universe episode, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, slated for release in 2023. The villain of this film will be Kang the Conqueror, a character introduced earlier this year in Loki and should be played by Jonathan Majors. “He has no age, in fact he is not aging,” said Majors in a recent Men’s health maintenance. “I don’t know what the hell he’s doing, man, but it works.”
Other celebrities and online commentators jumped into the action:
Rudd underwent a “test” on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
