After playing Jim Halpert on The Office (2005–2013), Krasinski traded Dunder Mifflin for the CIA, playing the title character in four seasons of Jack Ryan (2018–2023). He reprised the role in the Prime Video movie Jack Ryan: Ghost War (2026), which he also co-wrote and produced.

Behind the camera, Krasinski took a chance on A Quiet Place (2018), a horror movie about a family that had to stay silent to survive. “This is a huge career risk because I knew that if I didn’t pull it off, why would anybody let me direct again?” he told the National Board of Review. The film grossed about $341 million worldwide. Krasinski went on to direct A Quiet Place Part II (2021) and the upcoming A Quiet Place Part III (2027).
