Full Cast of Blue Bloods 2024 – Season 14 Main Characters & Actors

It’s so good to have Blue Bloods back, even if only for a little while.

On Blue Bloods Season 14 Episode 1, Jamie spoke for all the fans when he said it was good to be home. The 14th season opener delivered everything I love about this show: family conflicts, tough calls on cases, and a healthy dash of humor.

Even Frank’s clash with Mayor Chase was entertaining, and I didn’t expect to like it!

Fans can tune into CBS’ Blue Bloods one final time in 2024 with the release of Season 14, led by Tom Selleck and Donnie Wahlberg.

Season 14 of Blue Bloods was announced to be its last as the current installment closes out the character arcs and storylines portrayed by a star-studded cast.

Blue Bloods is returning (and ending) with season 14. Here’s a look at the cast, then and now

Catch up with Tom Selleck, Bridget Moynahan, and more as the CBS series comes to a close.

While television is full of cop dramas, Blue Bloods is in a league of its own. The long-running CBS series follows the lives and trials of a police commissioner (Tom Selleck) and his family of cops, lawyers, and assorted do-gooders. The Reagans have been going strong since 2010, though season 14 was delayed due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. The network announced later that year that the upcoming season, which is set to air on Feb. 16, 2024, will be the last.

In honor of the show coming to a close, EW is looking back on the Blue Bloods cast, then and now. What have the actors been up to behind the scenes for the last 14 years? It’s time to find out (but make sure you’re back in time for family dinner)!

01. Tom Selleck (Frank Reagan)

Tom Selleck has always anchored Blue Bloods thanks to his mustachioed star power and impressive resume. He was already a household name thanks to Magnum, P.I. (1980–1988), which earned him five Emmy nominations for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series, winning once in 1984. He also made his mark in movies like Three Men and a Baby (1987), but Selleck has mostly flourished on the small screen, such as his notable guest star turn on Friends. But his most prominent television role in recent memory is playing New York City Police Commissioner Frank Reagan on Blue Bloods.

It was tough to bring Frank to life, but the actor relished the challenge. ”Blue Bloods was the first really character-driven script I’d seen in a long time that wasn’t real sweet-saccharine. I mean, these were life-and-death issues,” Selleck told EW in 2012. “The job of New York City police commissioner is about as hard as any job probably in the world, and to get a chance to pay homage to that character and play the patriarch of a family was appealing.”

Selleck has kept busy offscreen as well, namely by replacing Charlton Heston as the NRA spokesman in 2003. During the contentious 2016 presidential election, he eschewed supporting Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, doing what his Regan character would likely do: writing in former Dallas Police Department Chief David Brown for president.

The famed actor courted serious controversy in 2015 when he allegedly transferred 1.4 million gallons of water for his avocado farm during a major California drought. He ended up settling matters out of court.

Selleck married actress Jacqueline Ray in 1971, adopting her son before their divorce in 1982. He later wed Jillie Mack in 1987, and they share one daughter.

2. Donnie Wahlberg (Daniel Reagan)

He may have become famous as one of the New Kids on the Block, but Donnie Wahlberg’s Hollywood career is far from “new.” The actor, who is the older brother of Mark Wahlberg, previously appeared in some high-profile films, including The Sixth Sense (1999) and three Saw movies (2005–2007). Walhberg also starred in the acclaimed miniseries Band of Brothers (2001), but his most extensive television role has been NYPD Detective Daniel Reagan (oldest son of Frank Reagan) on Blue Bloods.

Just like those of us watching at home, he was also relieved that the series was renewed for one final season. “I love Blue Bloods, and I think if there weren’t a season 14, the loyal fans of the show would be very, very outraged,” Wahlberg told PEOPLE in 2023. “They’re part of the Reagan family. The audience is the extended family.”

In addition to hosting and producing the series Very Scary People (2019), the actor has also appeared as Cluedle-Doo on The Masked Singer (2021).

Wahlberg married Kim Fey in 1999. They had two children together but divorced in 2008. He later married Jenny McCarthy, an actress and former host of The View, in 2014.

03. Bridget Moynahan (Erin Reagan)

Bridget Moynahan hit the ground running with a recurring role on Sex and the City as Natasha (1999–2000). She soon appeared in films like Coyote Ugly (2000), I, Robot (2004), and the first two John Wick movies (2014–2017), but she’s best known for playing Frank Reagan’s daughter, Assistant District Attorney Erin Reagan, on Blue Bloods since 2010.

Moynahan discovered her growing fame on the show in a very postmodern way. “A friend of mine was apparently filling out the crossword, and I was one of the clues,” Moynahan told PEOPLE in 2019. “So, she sent me a photo of it… I did feel like I made it, you know, to be in a crossword. I don’t think it was the New York Times one, so I still have that next step.”

Recently, she reprised her Sex and the City role for one episode of And Just Like That (2021).

As for her personal life, Moynahan dated football star Tom Brady from 2004 to 2006. They share one son. In 2015, she married Andrew Frankel and became stepmother to his three sons.

04. Will Estes (Jamie Reagan)

Before starring in Blue Bloods as Officer Jamie Reagan, the youngest son of Tom Selleck’s Frank, Will Estes was known for the NBC drama series American Dreams (2002–2005).

We now know Blue Bloods will end in 2024 with season 14, but back in 2021, Estes expressed wanting to be in the loop about how the series would eventually conclude. “I hope we know that it’s coming and wrap it up so in some ways it can be like a movie, you want a fitting end to a story,” he told Looper. “And so I do hope we get a chance to… wrap things up and watch these characters walk off into the sunset.”

Estes previously dated Jennifer Love Hewitt in 2004 and Torrey DeVitto in 2020.

05. Len Cariou (Henry Reagan)

Len Cariou came to Blue Bloods as a major veteran of the stage and screen. He was already a Tony-winning actor for playing the titular character in Stephen Sondheim’s Sweeney Todd (1979). As for film, he was known for A Little Night Music (1977) and Flags of Our Fathers (2006). He also had a recurring role on Murder, She Wrote and received an Emmy nomination for playing Franklin D. Roosevelt on HBO’s Into the Storm (2009). He followed that success with his ongoing stint on Blue Bloods as Henry Reagan, Frank’s father and the former New York City police commissioner.

The actor was happy to get the role, but he later admitted it was a bit surreal. “Who’s going to buy me being Tom Selleck’s father?” he quipped to Looper in 2022. “We’re only about a generation apart.” Cariou is just six years Selleck’s senior, but they’ve nonetheless pulled off the father/son dynamic onscreen.

Cariou has mostly focused on Blue Bloods in recent years, though he found time to appear in films like Prisoners (2013), Spotlight (2015), Bumblebee (2018), and Death Wish (2018). He will also star in the upcoming movie Wake.

He’s been married to actress Heather Summerhayes since 1985. They have one child, Laurel.
