It's not enough that he gets to marry Pam Beesly on TV or is the #1 boy-next-door crush of pretty much every woman in America. No, John Krasinski has to go and make a movie, a movie based on a super-smart book, and prove that he truly does walk a few inches above the rest of us (and not just because he's super-tall).

The movie in question is Brief Interviews With Hideous Men, based on David Foster Wallace's book and starring a huge range of actors you know, from Bobby Cannavale and Chris Messina to Will Forte and Will Arnett. Check out the trailer below, or in high-def at Apple.com. The movie was a minor Sundance hit, and hits theaters on September 25.
