Several major developments have emerged this year, and they could have a huge impact on the future of the Blue Bloods franchise.

Season 2 Is Officially Moving Forward

CBS has confirmed that Boston Blue will return for Season 2 as part of the network’s 2026–27 fall lineup. The new season will continue the fallout from the dramatic Season 1 finale, including Lena Silver’s recovery, Danny Reagan’s growing leadership role, and major changes within the Silver family.

Marisa Ramirez Is Returning

One of the biggest announcements for fans is that Marisa Ramirez will return as Maria Baez in Season 2. The finale hinted at a new chapter for Danny and Baez, and producers have confirmed that their relationship will remain an important storyline moving forward. However, they also warned that there will be complications and conflict ahead. (TV Insider)

Tom Selleck Is Still the Biggest Mystery

Fans continue to ask whether Tom Selleck will finally appear on Boston Blue.

The latest update comes from Sonequa Martin-Green, who revealed that the production team has been talking with Selleck for quite some time. She said he is “always getting asked” and that everyone wants him to appear, but only if the story feels right. Selleck himself remains undecided. (TV Insider)

This means Frank Reagan’s future remains uncertain, but discussions are actively happening behind the scenes. (TV Insider)

Bridget Moynahan May Be Back Again

Another exciting update involves Bridget Moynahan.

Recent reports indicate that Moynahan has been filming new material for Boston Blue, leading to speculation that Erin Reagan’s role could expand in Season 2. Her previous appearances were extremely popular with viewers and helped reconnect the spin-off with the original Reagan family. (IMDb)

More Blue Bloods Characters Are Welcome

According to cast and producers, the door remains open for additional Blue Bloods veterans to appear in future episodes. Season 1 already featured appearances from:

• Bridget Moynahan
• Marisa Ramirez
• Len Cariou
• Will Hochman

The creative team has openly said they want to continue expanding the shared universe. (TV Insider)

Tom Selleck’s New Project

While fans wait for news about Frank Reagan, Selleck has officially landed a major new television project. He will host, narrate, and executive-produce a HISTORY Channel documentary series titled Crime and Justice with Tom Selleck (working title), focusing on famous crimes and investigations from American history.

This doesn’t rule out a future Boston Blue appearance, but it does mean his schedule is becoming busier. (Cinemablend)

The Biggest Question Heading Into Season 2

The most important unanswered question remains simple:

Will Frank Reagan finally come to Boston?

With Danny Reagan now firmly established in the city, Maria Baez returning, Erin Reagan potentially making more appearances, and producers continuing conversations with Tom Selleck, Season 2 may become the most Reagan-family-focused chapter of Boston Blue yet. (TV Insider)

For now, fans are watching closely—and hoping that the next major headline includes Frank Reagan’s long-awaited return. (TV Insider)
