CBS’s upcoming Blue Bloods spin-off, Boston Blue, just added Emmy-nominated actor Gloria Reuben to its impressive roster. Reuben will step into the series as Mae Silver, an influential figure in Boston’s legal landscape. Her character is poised to bring depth, intellect, and a powerful female presence to the show’s central family dynamics.

Mae Silver serves as the District Attorney of Boston and the matriarch of the Silver family, which includes the new lead detective, her daughter Lena Silver. Reuben’s character is expected to be a formidable force—balancing legal battles, family loyalty, and political pressures in a major urban environment. Her casting promises a mix of courtroom drama and personal tension that will deepen the show’s emotional core.

Her addition enhances the show’s generational clash motif. With her role intersecting law enforcement and legal strategy, Mae Silver is likely to clash—or collaborate—in fascinating ways with Detective Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) and other key players. Reuben’s character adds layers of intrigue, especially as personal allegiances and professional responsibilities collide.

With Boston Blue aiming for a premiere in fall 2025, Gloria Reuben’s casting signals CBS’s commitment to high-caliber performances and complex storytelling. As the saga of the Reagan family expands to Boston, expect Reuben’s Mae Silver to be at the heart of compelling drama that binds legal ambition with deep-rooted family ties.
