In our hearts, John Krasinski may forever be the funny and adorable Jim Halpert from Scranton, PA.
But Krasinski has moved on in his acting career and is now an "action guy" in the new Amazon Prime show Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan.
But when Krasinski was a guest on Stephen Colbert's The Late Show, Colbert was not about to let Krasinski forget that he is a comedy man at heart. What followed was a hilarious action sequence like something straight out of Die Hard.
Colbert put on his best movie villain attitude and forced Krasinski to do push ups and punch him in the face, leading to a full-on fight in the studio hallways. After a lot of punching and a cute little cameo from Krasinski's Office co-star Ellie Kemper, the two end up in a rooftop stand-off for the ages.
"Us comedy guys will never be like them. We can't be heroes. We're not allowed to be sexy," said Colbert, before Krasinski flashed his six pack and threw the host off the roof.
Jim would never have done that.
