Jonathan Bailey shared laughs with David Corenswet during a playful interview about his new title

During a recent “Actors on Actors” interview, David Corenswet playfully teased Jonathan Bailey over his recent title as People magazine’s 2025 “Sexiest Man Alive.”

Corenswet grinned and said, “Sexiest Man Alive. Jonathan Bailey,” prompting Bailey to laugh and give him a friendly hug.

Bailey, 37, called the honor “a huge honor” while also joking that it felt “completely absurd.”

He even quipped that he only told his dog about the news before it went public, keeping his trademark modesty and humor intact.

At the time he learned of the accolade, Bailey was performing in a serious stage production of Shakespeare’s Richard II, a stark contrast to the glamorous title now associated with him.

Corenswet’s playful comment highlighted the camaraderie between the two actors, both rising stars in Hollywood.

Fans have been delighted by the interaction, and many are eager to see what’s next for Bailey following his high-profile recognition.
