Overview

• CBS will debut Boston Blue on October 17, with a sneak-peek screening slated for October 12 at Mipcom Cannes.
• Showrunner Brandon Sonnier said Boston and New York’s proximity makes guest appearances feasible, and Bridget Moynahan will reprise Erin Reagan in the premiere.
• Sonequa Martin-Green co-stars as Detective Lena Silver alongside Donnie Wahlberg, with Mika Amonsen taking over as Sean Reagan and cast members including Ernie Hudson, Maggie Lawson, Gloria Reuben, and Marcus Scribner.
• Moynahan will also direct an episode this season, as the series inherits Blue Bloods’ Friday 10 p.m. slot on CBS.
• The series comes from CBS Studios and Jerry Bruckheimer Television, with Sonnier and Brandon Margolis as showrunners, Anthony Hemingway directing the pilot, and distribution by Paramount Global Content Distribution; Wahlberg says the show’s backbone remains “faith, family, and tradition.”
