Working with Jonathan Majors could be the "gateway" to becoming the Sexiest Man Alive, the new Marvel Cinematic Universe villain joked to Stephen Colbert.
On Tuesday night's episode of "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert," Colbert pointed out that Majors stars opposite two of People's former Sexiest Men Alive — Paul Rudd and Michael B. Jordan — in his two new projects, "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania" and "Creed III," respectively.
"You've measured yourself against both of these Sexiest Men Alive," Colbert told Majors. "Do you think you have a shot?"
"I think what becomes very clear to me is that I am indeed the gateway to becoming the Sexiest Man Alive," Majors joked. "Work with me? Sexiest Man Alive."
"It's contact sexy," Colbert agreed.
Rudd won People's Sexiest Man Alive in 2021. He stars opposite Majors' Kang the Conqueror as Ant-Man in the "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania," which hit theaters last weekend.
Jordan, who stars as Creed in "Creed III," which premieres on March 3, took home the award the year before in 2020.
