Donnie Wahlberg Begins Filming Blue Bloods Spinoff Boston Blue in Toronto

Donnie Wahlberg is reprising his role as Detective Danny Reagan in the new Blue Bloods spinoff, Boston Blue, which is currently in production with filming primarily in Toronto and some scenes in Boston. The spinoff will explore Danny Reagan's move from New York City to Boston, where he joins the Boston Police Department and partners with Detective Lena Silver, played by Sonequa Martin-Green. A significant change in casting is the recasting of Sean Reagan, Danny's younger son, from Andrew Terraciano to Mika Amonsen, with Sean now depicted as a Boston police patrolman. The series will also feature Gloria Reuben, Ernie Hudson, Maggie Lawson, and Marcus Scribner in key roles, focusing on the Silver family and Boston's law enforcement dynamics. Wahlberg has shared his enthusiasm on social media about this “new chapter” and new opportunities, highlighting the fresh setting and storylines distinct from the original series. Boston Blue is slated to air on Fridays at 10 p.m., continuing the time slot familiar to Blue Bloods fans, though its premiere date has not yet been announced.
