Pop Reagan is coming to town on Boston Blue! Len Cariou reprises his role as Henry Reagan, paying a visit to see his rookie-cop great-grandson, Sean (Mika Amonsen, formerly played by Andrew Terraciano), in uniform for the first time when the Blue Bloods spinoff returns on Friday, April 3, on CBS. But Henry’s also there to deliver a special gift to grandson Danny (Donnie Wahlberg, above, with Cariou).
Executive producer Brandon Sonnier explains why they chose Henry as the next Blue Bloods cameo, other than the fact that they just love the character.
