Selleck starred as NYPD Police Commissioner Frank Reagan for 14 seasons of Blue Bloods. The show ended in December 2024, and Selleck was vocally unhappy about CBS’s decision. The Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) spinoff, Boston Blue, welcomed Blue Bloods alums throughout Season 1. Star Sonequa Martin-Green has said that she’s hopeful Selleck will appear on the spinoff one day.
