Donnie Wahlberg, known for his role as Det. Danny Reagan on the long-running crime drama Blue Bloods, has hinted at the possibility of the show continuing beyond its announced 14th season. Despite CBS confirming the 14th season as the last, Wahlberg referred to it as 'allegedly' the final season and teased about potential future developments for his character.
Wahlberg expressed gratitude for the show's 14-year run, acknowledging its beloved status among fans. There were light-hearted discussions with his New Kids on the Block bandmates about the show's future and the desire to have them make cameo appearances.
In particular, Wahlberg emphasized his wish to have Joey McIntyre join the cast, considering it a 'bucket list' item. However, McIntyre seemed less enthusiastic about the idea, suggesting some boundaries for his potential role on the show.
Reflecting on his initial apprehensions about playing Tom Selleck's on-screen son, Wahlberg shared anecdotes about his casting experience and interactions with fellow cast members. Despite his initial doubts, he found comfort in his resemblance to Len Cariou, who plays his grandfather on the show.
Wahlberg's journey on Blue Bloods since its inception in 2010 has been filled with memorable moments and connections with his co-stars. The show continues to air on CBS on Fridays at 10 p.m. ET, leaving fans curious about the future of the Reagan family and the potential for new storylines beyond the announced final season.
