The highly anticipated Blue Bloods spinoff, Boston Blue, has just announced another exciting addition to its cast. Gloria Reuben, known for her role in the original Blue Bloods series, will be taking on the role of Mae Silver, Boston’s District Attorney and the matriarch of a blended family of law enforcement professionals. Mae, a widow of a murdered judge, prioritizes family over work whenever possible.
Reuben’s character will be the mother of Lena, portrayed by the talented Sonequa Martin-Green. Donnie Wahlberg will be reprising his role as Danny Reagan from Blue Bloods, now a member of the Boston PD in Boston Blue. Maggie Lawson will play police superintendent Sarah, Mae’s stepdaughter.
In addition to the star-studded cast, Ernie Hudson will join the series as Reverend Peters, Mae’s father and the grandfather of Lena and Sarah. The casting for Jonah, a rookie cop in the family, is yet to be announced.
Reuben’s connection to Martin-Green from their work in the film My Dead Friend Zoe adds an extra layer of intrigue to their onscreen reunion in Boston Blue. Wahlberg teased exciting surprises and unanswered questions to be addressed in the spinoff, promising a continuation of the Blue Bloods legacy.
Fans are eager to see if original Blue Bloods cast members will make cameo appearances in Boston Blue. Wahlberg hinted at the possibility, suggesting that Danny Reagan’s ties to his family traditions will remain strong even in this new setting.
As the series looks to carry on the tradition and legacy of Blue Bloods, Wahlberg expressed his excitement for the opportunity to continue the story in Boston Blue. The cancellation of Blue Bloods was a tough blow for fans, but the spinoff offers a chance to explore new storylines while staying true to the beloved characters and themes of the original series. Stay tuned for more updates on Boston Blue as filming gets underway.
