‘The Pitt’ Star Noah Wyle Named People’s 2026 Sexiest Man Alive
The ER and The Pitt star said he thought the honor was a prank after earning Golden Globe and Emmy recognition for his hospital roles.
- On Tuesday, People magazine named actor Noah Wyle as its 2026 Sexiest Man Alive, marking the 41st year of the annual award for the 55-year-old star of HBO's The Pitt.
- Wyle initially doubted the news, telling People that he thought it sounded like 'a prank' and never expected such an honor to be bestowed on him.
- Known for portraying Dr. John Carter on NBC's ER, Wyle currently plays Dr. Michael 'Robby' Robinavitch in The Pitt, where he earned a Golden Globe and back-to-back Emmy awards in 2025 and 2026.
- His wife, Sara, encouraged him to embrace the title, believing it reflects well on her taste; his daughter joked she would tease him about it for the next 50 years.
- George Clooney, a two-time Sexiest Man Alive winner, previously joked at the AARP Movies for Grownups Awards that he would nominate Wyle if the organization created a 'Sexiest Man Still Alive' issue.
