Donnie Wahlberg says he and Sonequa Martin-Green “lean on each other” in “Boston Blue”
Donnie Wahlberg and Sonequa Martin-Green are bringing a new dynamic with “Boston Blue,” a spinoff of the long-running drama “Blue Bloods.”
The series follows Wahlberg’s character, Detective Danny Reagan, as he takes a new position with the Boston Police Department. There, he’s partnered with Detective Lena Silver, played by Martin-Green, who comes from another prominent law enforcement family.
Wahlberg said it was hard to say goodbye to “Blue Bloods,” but that he eventually saw “Boston Blue” as an “opportunity to keep family, faith and tradition on TV, to tell a story of a law enforcement family, and to keep the Reagans alive in this new world with an amazing new cast and an amazing new partner.”
Martin-Green, who previously starred in “Star Trek: Discovery” and “The Walking Dead,” said she drew on her experience working within major television franchises.
“I just couldn’t have expected it. I didn’t think ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ would come after ‘Walking Dead, and I certainly didn’t think another beloved TV franchise would come after ‘Star Trek: Discovery.’ So, I’ve learned a lot about doing that, about building new iterations of beloved franchises,” she said.
Wahlberg said his chemistry with Martin-Green has been key to shaping “Boston Blue.” He credited her experience and talent for helping define the show’s new world and described their partnership as one built on trust and collaboration.
“She really brings so much to the table in that experience, but also in her talent,” Wahlberg said. “The show is, you know, it’s a universe show. It’s a spinoff. However you want to refer to it. But it is a new world as well. Danny is a fish out of water and he meets someone that really is one of the reasons he stays. Not that it’s romantic or anything, but he meets an equal.”
He described their working relationship as collaborative.
“We lean on each other. We talk to each other constantly. We are constantly working for the success of this show,” Wahlberg said.
“Boston Blue” premieres Friday at 10 p.m. on CBS and will stream on Paramount+.

Ryan Gosling reacts to viral NFL meme that won’t die
Some jokes fade. This one? Absolutely refuses.
Ryan Gosling is finally addressing the NFL meme that’s followed him for over two decades – and honestly, he’s taking it better than most would.
Appearing on the New Heights podcast with Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce, Gosling didn’t try to dodge the joke tied to his role in Remember the Titans. Instead, he leaned all the way in.
“It doesn’t matter what I accomplish in my life… there’ll always be someone saying, ‘Never forget he’s a liability at corner,'” he said, smiling.
If you know. You know.
For years, football fans have clung to that one storyline – Gosling’s struggling cornerback getting burned on defense – and somehow turned it into a permanent part of NFL internet culture. Oscar nominations? Box office hits? Doesn’t matter. The meme always wins.
The best part? The Kelce brothers didn’t even hesitate. They burst out laughing like they’d been waiting for this moment, instantly proving just how deep the joke runs in football circles.
And that’s really the story here. Not the movie, not the career glow-up – but the internet’s ability to pick one tiny moment and never let it go.
Gosling gets it now. By laughing along, he’s basically flipped the script. The joke isn’t at his expense anymore – it’s a shared punchline.
Still, fair warning: no matter what he does next, the internet has already decided.
Cornerback Ryan Gosling? Forever under review.

Messi scores 900th career goal, joins Ronaldo in elite club
Lionel Messi scored his 900th career goal on Wednesday to become the second player to reach the mark in elite men’s football after Cristiano Ronaldo.
The 38-year-old Argentine World Cup winner brought up the milestone with a left-footed strike in Inter Miami’s 1-1 draw with Nashville SC in the Concacaf Champions Cup.
The 900th goal came 21 years after Messi scored his first in senior football for Barcelona as a 17-year-old in 2005.
Inter manager Javier Mascherano said Messi’s tally was “insane”.
“I’ve been lucky enough to see most, or many, of the goals he’s scored, much closer than you all, and that’s a privilege,” he added.
“The number we’re talking about is insane, and that’s why Leo is a one of a kind.”
Messi, who has won the Ballon d’Or eight times, reached the landmark in his 1,142nd appearance for club and country, nearly 100 games fewer than Ronaldo, who took 1,236 games to reach the milestone in September 2024.
Portuguese forward Ronaldo has now reached 965 goals and has targeted the 1,000-mark before he quits the game.
The majority of Messi’s goals came during his spell at Barcelona, where he scored 672 times. He added 32 at Paris St-Germain and 81 for Inter Miami and scored 115 for Argentina, with whom he won the World Cup in 2022.
Messi’s teammates have been able to depend on him at crucial times with 175 of his goals coming in knockout matches, including 35 in finals.
His 129 goals in Europe’s Champions League is second only to Ronaldo’s 140.
Messi’s milestone goal came on a bittersweet night for Miami, who exited the competition on away goals after the first leg of their tie ended 0-0.
