With Blue Bloods coming to an end after more than a decade on CBS, fans have been wondering what’s next for Tom Selleck — and whether he’ll reprise his iconic role as Frank Reagan in the upcoming spinoff, Boston Blue.
While CBS has yet to officially confirm casting details, sources close to the production say that Selleck’s involvement remains uncertain. The 79-year-old actor has expressed gratitude to fans for their unwavering support but hinted that he may finally be ready to step back from the demanding schedule of a weekly television series.
“I’ve loved every moment of playing Frank Reagan,” Selleck said in a recent interview. “It’s been an honor to bring that character to life, but every chapter eventually comes to a close.”
Boston Blue, reportedly set in the same universe as Blue Bloods, is expected to introduce a new generation of law enforcement officers while honoring the legacy of the Reagans. Even if Selleck doesn’t appear as a regular, there’s still speculation that he could make a guest appearance or cameo to connect the two shows.
For now, fans are keeping their fingers crossed that Frank Reagan might make one more appearance — even if it’s just to pass the torch to Boston’s next great police family.
