B.J. Novak and John Krasinski

A second duo who met in high school, B.J. Novak and John Krasinski, attended Newton South High School together in the same graduating class. Novak was always a theater guy, but Krasinski was actually a jock in high school. Novak got Krasinski into acting by casting him in his first-ever play. Everyone say thank you, B.J. Novak!

A picture of Jim and Ryan themselves, before they were Jim and Ryan. It is so cool that they were friends way back then and then got to work on The Office, this incredibly cool project and cultural phenomenon. I bet they had a ton of fun catching up on set. I hope to do something like that with a friend someday!
