Tom Selleck Could Return to Boston Blue If the Story Is Right
Donnie Wahlberg says Tom Selleck could return to Boston Blue as Frank Reagan, the character he played in Blue Bloods.
Boston Blue follows Danny Reagan, played by Wahlberg, as he starts over with the Boston Police Department.
Blue Bloods ended in December 2024 after 14 seasons on CBS, but the franchise continued with the spinoff.
Selleck has not appeared in Boston Blue so far.
A return depends on a strong story, rather than a cameo included just to please fans, Wahlberg said.
He believes the show’s co-creators can develop a special episode that will interest Selleck, but no story has met that condition yet.
Tom Selleck could return to Boston Blue as Frank Reagan if the series develops a storyline worthy of the character, Donnie Wahlberg said.
Wahlberg said he and co-creators Brandon Sonnier and Brandon Margolis would need to create a particularly thoughtful episode.
Selleck has not appeared in the spinoff, which follows Danny Reagan after he joins the Boston Police Department.

What people are saying
I love him and respect him so much.
It’s going to require the most thoughtful, elegant episode that the Brandons [co-creators Brandon Sonnier and Brandon Margolis] and I can pull together.
And he will do it, but it has to be something really special, because he takes what he does very seriously.
And he takes the legacy of the show seriously. He takes Frank Reagan seriously.
