Wahlberg: Selleck's Frank Reagan Return to Boston Blue Is Coming
Donnie Wahlberg told Screen Rant that Tom Selleck will reprise Frank Reagan on Boston Blue once the right story is found.
Donnie Wahlberg said that Tom Selleck will eventually return as Frank Reagan in Boston Blue, but only when the right story conditions are in place. Wahlberg made the comment in an interview, according to Screen Rant.
Wahlberg said the return depends on a resonant and important story being found for the character. He added that Selleck takes the legacy of Blue Bloods and of Frank Reagan very seriously, and that the actor would need the material to match that standard.
No schedule for Selleck's appearance as Frank has been settled, and Wahlberg did not indicate when it might happen.
Blue Bloods ran for 14 seasons, with Selleck playing Frank Reagan, the family patriarch and former NYPD Commissioner. Selleck spoke about the difficult switch from Blue Bloods to Boston Blue at CBS after he had taken pay cuts to keep the original show going.
Several Blue Bloods stars, including Bridget Moynahan and Len Cariou, have already appeared in Boston Blue to reprise their characters. Will Estes is joining Boston Blue season 2 as Jamie Reagan.
