Another Reagan is headed to Boston — even if it’s just for a short visit. Bridget Moynahan has become the first Blue Bloods main cast member to make an appearance alongside Donnie Wahlberg on CBS’ upcoming offshoot Boston Blue. She will reprise her role as Erin Reagan in the premiere episode of the new series, which will air October 17.
Wahlberg posted a photo of the duo on the Toronto set of Boston Blue with the caption “Reunited and it feels so good!” (You can see it below). In addition to guest starring, Moynihan will direct an episode of the freshman drama this season.
Boston Blue follows NYPD’s Danny Reagan (Wahlberg) as he takes a new position as a Detective with the Boston PD. Once in Boston, he is paired with Detective Lena Silver (Sonequa Martin-Green), the eldest daughter of a prominent law enforcement family.
Danny’s prosecutor sister Erin is the third Reagan character to be featured on Boston Blue, along with Danny and his son, Sean. Mika Amonsen was recently cast as a series regular, taking over the role of Sean which was played on a recurring basis by Andrew Terraciano on Blue Bloods.
In addition to Wahlberg, Martin-Green and Amonsen, the Boston Blue cast includes Maggie Lawson as Sarah Silver, Marcus Scribner as Jonah Silver, Gloria Reuben as Mae Silver and Ernie Hudson as Reverend Peters.
Boston Blue, which will air in Blue Bloods‘ Friday 10 p.m. time period, is produced by CBS Studios in association with Jerry Bruckheimer Television. Brandon Sonnier & Brandon Margolis showrun and executive produce. Jerry Bruckheimer, KristieAnne Reed and Wahlberg also serve as executive producers. The series will be distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
