The midseason finale of Boston Blue<\/em> finally mentioned Tony Terraciano<\/strong>\u2018s character, Jack Reagan, but is he one of the upcoming Blue Bloods<\/em> cameos after Donnie Wahlberg<\/strong><\/a>\u2018s other onscreen son was already recast?<\/p>\n

During the Friday, December 19, episode of the CBS series, Danny (Wahlberg) revealed that Jack was doing<\/a> Doctors Without Borders in Africa, which was a nod to Terraciano, 25, attending medical school to earn his Doctor of Medicine.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s important to us that we keep the universe alive. We are an expansion of the Blue Bloods universe, and we really, really take that to heart,\u201d executive producer Brandon Sonnier<\/strong> exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em> about the subtle Jack mention<\/a>. \u201cSo we want to check in on the other members of the family. We want to feel like their lives are growing and ongoing outside of the bubble that we see on Boston Blue.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued: \u201cSo it is important to us to kind of keep track of where everyone is, where their lives are taking them and hopefully we do get to drop in and visit them in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Viewers saw Jack and Sean (Andrew Terraciano<\/strong>) grow up in front of their eyes, so imagine their surprise when CBS ordered the Boston Blue spinoff, which focuses on Danny\u2019s relationship with his youngest \u2014 with a twist. Before Blue Bloods<\/em> premiered in October, the role of Sean was recast with newcomer Mika Amonsen<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n

Executive producer Brandon Margolis<\/strong> opened up to Us<\/em> about the chances of involving Andrew in the spinoff \u2014 perhaps in a role that nods at his Blue Bloods<\/em> origins.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI love that idea. It\u2019s really clever and I think it\u2019s something Donnie would probably be into as well,\u201d he teased to Us. \u201cBecause he\u2019s the one always trying to work in New Kids on the Block references. I\u2019m sure Donnie would be open to it. But I think that it\u2019s a very clever idea. If the right opportunities are there, we never say no to a great idea.\u201d<\/p>\n

The showrunners also weighed in on finding a way to bring Jack on screen \u2014 even if that meant recasting the role.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cIs there a chance? Yes, there is a chance,\u201d Sonnier shared. \u201cWe can tell you that there are more family members that will be joining us in the back half of the season. It is an ongoing conversation about various arcs and where we can pay homage, where we can include and where we can expand the universe. We\u2019re huge fans of Blue Bloods and any chance that we get that we can live fully in the universe and include the Reagans is a chance that we jump to take.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to the Reagans, Boston Blue follows the Silver family, which also includes Marcus Scribner as Jonah, Gloria Reuben as Jonah\u2019s mother, Mae, Ernie Hudson as Jonah\u2019s grandfather, Sonequa Martin-Green as Jonah\u2019s sister and Maggie Lawson as his stepsister, Sarah.<\/p>\n

The midseason finale showed Mae facing backlash for looking into a crooked district attorney, which led to all the cases he worked on being called into question. As a result, her late husband Ben\u2019s murder case was placed under review and his killer walked free.<\/p>\n

Jonah didn\u2019t deal well with the decision and he spent most of Friday\u2019s episode putting himself in danger while following his father\u2019s murderer. At the end of the finale, Jonah followed the killer into a building \u2014 only for Danny and Lena (Martin-Green) to burst in after hearing a gunshot and seeing the man dead while Jonah was covered in blood.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe most interesting stories to tell in that format are the most emotional ones. So it made the most sense to us that exploring grief about their father, which had been sort of a touchstone for the whole Silver family,\u201d Margolis noted to Us. \u201cSince the pilot, that made the most sense to us as storytellers, as the thing that should mine the emotion that would carry us over into the back half of the season. It was a really fun opportunity to explore that with Jonah\u2019s character because Marcus is such a phenomenal actor. A lot of people don\u2019t realize how talented he is in the dramatic sense. It was a really fun opportunity for us to write something for him to get to explore and to show off.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sonnier teased how Jonah seemingly being accused of murder will play out.<\/p>\n
