John Mulaney still can’t believe he’s married to Olivia Munn.
When Page Six asked the comedian whether he feels he is “punching above his weight,” he heartily concurred.
“One thousand percent. [She is] wildly, wildly out of my league,” he admitted to us Monday at the Broadway opening of “All In: Comedy About Love.”
Mulaney, 42, stars in the stage show opposite Fred Armisen, Renée Elise Goldsberry and Richard Kind, the latter of whom he joked could woo Munn.
“She’s somehow with this working comedian,” he explained about himself, “when she could be with Mr. Richard Kind, who is single. … Look at him! He’s a magnet.”
Mulaney and the “Newsroom” alum, 44, quietly married in July, two and a half years after welcoming their son, Malcolm.
The couple was first linked in May 2021 following the “Saturday Night Live” alum’s stint in rehab for drug and alcohol abuse.
Munn recently confessed she and Mulaney were not even an official couple yet when she discovered she was pregnant. They initially planned to co-parent on different coasts but ultimately decided to raise Malcolm together just a couple of months before his November 2021 birth.
The “Predator” actress — who bravely announced her battle with breast cancer in March — and the comic went on to welcome a baby girl named Méi via surrogate in September.
With two kids at home, Mulaney is busier than ever but thrilled to be back on Broadway in a play written by his “SNL” colleague Simon Rich.
“Simon is the only genius I’ve ever worked with,” he gushed to Page Six. “Working with him back at ‘SNL’ was just the greatest creative time, being up with him until 4 or 5 in the morning just laughing so hard at something that was going to be cut at dress rehearsal.”
After the show, the cast, along with celebrity guests including Jon Hamm, Steve Martin, Stephen Colbert, Martin Short, Cecily Strong and Tom Hanks, went to Carmine’s for an afterparty, where they feasted on the Italian restaurant’s famous meatballs and family-style pastas.
