CBS is expanding the Blue Bloods universe. The spinoff, Boston Blue, will bring new energy while staying true to the spirit of the original. Here’s what you may have missed.

After 14 successful seasons, Blue Bloods came to an end in December 2024. But the legacy of the Reagan family isn't over. CBS has announced Boston Blue, a spinoff series that will premiere in the fall of 2025.

It was recently announced by the network that Sonequa Martin-Green has been cast in the new series to play detective Lena Peters, who is the eldest daughter of a prominent law enforcement family. In Boston Blue, she will partner up with Danny Reagan. Which means Donnie Wahlberg will be reprising his Blue Bloods role.

Together, they will navigate the complexities of policing in a new city while maintaining the core values of justice and family.

Boston Blue Cast Is Yet to Be Fully Announced

While the rest of the cast is still being finalized, the show's premise hints at potential appearances from familiar faces. Given the close proximity to New York City, Danny's sons, Jack and Sean, might make guest appearances, and perhaps even other Blue Bloods characters could join in the future.

The new series is produced by CBS Studios in association with JBTV, with Brandon Sonnier and Brandon Margolis serving as showrunners and executive producers. Other executive producers include Jerry Bruckheimer, KristieAnne Reed and Donnie Wahlberg himself.

It was also revealed that the new show will air in the same Friday 10pm time slot as its predecessor, keeping the tradition alive for fans who enjoyed Blue Bloods in that time slot. So for now, fans can look forward to a fresh yet familiar experience that combines the essence of Blue Bloods with new challenges in Boston.
