CBS' ‘Blue Bloods' spinoff recasts Sean Reagan role, Mika Amonsen takes over as Donnie Wahlberg's son
CBS's upcoming 'Blue Bloods' spinoff has recast Danny Reagan's son after the same actor played the recurring role throughout the original 14 seasons. Andrew Terraciano will not return as Sean Reagan in 'Boston Blue' after appearing in nearly every episode across 14 seasons as the son of Donnie Wahlberg's character, Danny Reagan, in the hit primetime network show. Instead, Mika Amonsen will take over the role as the youngest Reagan son, who relocates with his father to Beantown to start a new chapter working as a patrolman for the Boston Police Department in the 'Blue Bloods' offshoot. 5 Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) and his nephew Joe Hill (Will Hochman) in the 'Blue Bloods' episode 'No Good Deed.' CBS via Getty Images The character is being recast to reflect a bold new direction in Boston Blue, as he confidently follows the Reagans into the world of law enforcement, according to Deadline, citing sources. Wahlberg, 55, reprises his role as the hot-headed detective, teaming up with Sonequa Martin-Green, who plays Detective Lena Silver, the accomplished eldest daughter of a prestigious law enforcement family. Amsonen's Sean Reagan has 'committed himself to pursuing his family's legacy but wanted to do so on his own terms, which meant joining a department outside of his hometown. Danny's decision to stay in Boston gives this father and son duo a chance to reconnect on a deeper level,' according to the character's IMDb description. Amonsen has previously appeared in Prime Video's 'Reacher,' ABC's 'Designated Survivor,' and had a role in Eli Roth's 2023 horror film 'Thanksgiving.' In February, CBS announced 'Boston Blue' and began filming seven months after the series finale of 'Blue Bloods,' which ran from 2010 to 2024. 5 Mika Amonsen has been casted as Sean Reagan for 'Boston Blue.'

However, around season 10, he started to appear less in the show, but did make a brief appearance in the series finale. Terraciano's run as Sean Reagan ended after the actor was featured in 292 of the 293 episodes of 'Blue Bloods.' In an emotional farewell post on Instagram, the 22-year-old actor thanked fans of the long-running CBS drama for watching. 'To all of you that watched, I hope you enjoyed the finale,' Terraciano wrote. 'It was a fantastic ride, and I loved every moment of it, so I figured I'd share some of the memories from the best season ever!'

Lifting the Veil on Las Vegas' ‘New Wave' Weddings
For almost a century, 'Fabulous Las Vegas' has been a hotspot for nuptials, thanks to its easy-going marriage license rules, prime location and a dizzying array of ceremonies, from drive-through elopements to all-out spectacles, complete with showgirls, sequins and (why not?) the occasional adorned elephant. Yet, in recent years, it seemed the altar lights had dimmed in the Entertainment Capital of the World's subsidiary, 'Wedding Capital of the World.' Fewer couples were rolling the dice on Vegas vows, hinting that the honeymoon period might finally be over. But post-pandemic, Vegas is back in its bridal best. And she's never looked better. In 2024, Clark County issued a buoyant 76,779 marriage licenses, with wedding tourism generating an estimated $2.5 billion in economic impact. Among the 18,000 people employed in the city's matrimony industry are a new wave of style-savvy vendors, who are reshuffling the pack by blending retro style with modern sensibilities. Think pin-up parlors using vegan beauty products, vintage-inspired cakes worthy of a social post on the grid and ceremonies so kitsch they're actually chic – with Elvis still very much in the building. In short, it's once again fashionable to say 'I do' in Sin City. Leading the charge in Vegas' love-fueled renaissance are two fingers-on-the-pulse chapels: Sure Thing and its equally glamorous younger sister, Sure Thing Too. Tucked into a former strip mall on Fremont Street – sandwiched on either side of a tattoo parlor and bathed in the warm glow of vintage motel signs – the love shacks have been lighting up social media like a Vegas slot machine on a winning streak. Step through the doors and it's easy to see why. The interiors are a glorious whirlwind of nostalgic powder pink and baby blue drapes, flickering sweetheart-shaped neon and cherubs suspended overhead. This is Vegas kitsch, made fresh for a new generation. The Instagenic settings have chimed particularly well online, says co-owner Amy Hybarger, who along with her partner Victoria Hogan, has a background in photography. 'I'd say at least half of our bookings find us on social media,' Hybarger says. And it's not just the aesthetics that are luring lovebirds. According to Hybarger, affordability is another major draw. 'Although many of our couples really splurge on details for their day, it's also easy to be super chic in Vegas and not break the bank,' she adds. The chapels lay on themed experiences with all the showmanship of a circus ringmaster twirling a gilded baton. At Sure Thing and Sure Thing Too, lovers can strike a pose in the creaking leather seats of a classic car, march down the aisle to the dulcet tones of an antique Wurlitzer electronic organ and exchange vows beneath the glittering gaze of a female Elvis or a burlesque showgirl. Bonus points, of course, if their pampered pooch is trotting down the aisle as a ring bearer in a rhinestone collar. And there's even a velvet-curtained photo booth on hand for a strip of kiss-me-quick souvenirs. One couple who decided to renew their vows at the Sure Thing chapel are Margaret and Corey Bienert: The amorous duo is the creative force behind A Pretty Cool Hotel Tour, a viral account showcasing throwback hotels in the U.S. that has amassed a staggering 1.4 million followers on TikTok. Renewing their vows 13 years after marrying young out of a sense of 'duty or even obligation' to their deeply religious backgrounds, Margaret said Vegas offered a moment of true reverence. 'We're still very much in love, but we're different people now and don't hold the same beliefs about marriage.' Now in their thirties, their union these days feels more like a grand adventure. 'Vegas is the perfect place to celebrate that. It's very 'come as you are,' no questions asked. And we're serious about being a little bit ridiculous, dramatic and hopelessly romantic,' she said, recalling their happily-ever-after moment, complete with a photo op in front of a black velvet portrait of 'The King of Rock and Roll' himself. There's really nothing new about over-the-top wedding cakes in Vegas – sugar-sprinkled fantasies have been served here for decades. Back in 1967, Elvis Presley and Priscilla Beaulieu sliced into a towering six-tier creation, draped in a cloak of Kirsch-flavored fondant, at their Aladdin Hotel celebration, following a speedy ceremony that took all of eight minutes. Today, one can only imagine The King tipping his lacquered quiff in approval at Winston Marie Cakes, a mid-century-themed bakery where the confections flirt shamelessly with glitter-dipped cherries, coquettish satin bows and endless swirls of decadent buttercream. 'Interest in vintage wedding cakes has definitely picked up over the past year,' said owner Monique Perez. 'Right now, I'm averaging about 40 wedding cakes a month, ranging from a small 'elopement' cake to a tiered showstopper.' At the more elaborate end of the scale, a bespoke cake can take up to 24 hours to create. 'My signature look is very maximalist and detail-heavy,' she said, adding that cherubs, pearl sprinkles and vintage toppers all make frequent appearances. A quick detour across town leads to Dafna Beauty parlor, a hair-and-makeup emporium for vintage vixens. Since opening its doors in 2023, the boutique has been conjuring up bridal looks that would have made Elizabeth Taylor raise an impeccably arched brow in approval. Inside the all-pink-everything salon is a dream team of stylists, armed with flicks of cat-eye liner, tubes of siren-red lipstick and enough hairspray to sculpt a beehive that could survive a thunderstorm. 'Old Hollywood wavy hair is always a go-to, but I feel like we've been doing more 1960s laid back half updos lately too,' said salon founder and beauty influencer Dafna Bar-el. Baby blue eyeshadow is also having a moment, particularly among those committing at Sure Thing Too, where the look doubles as a playful nod to the chapel's pastel-hued palette. Bar-el is quick to note that her beauty parlor celebrates vintage aesthetics, not values. All products are vegan, cruelty-free and consciously low on plastic packaging. She adds that being situated in the heart of Downtown, in the shadow of events like 'Viva Las Vegas' – the world's largest rockabilly festival, held each April – helps spread the word. 'We personally attend the event and also host an annual pre-Viva party at our boutique.' Capturing these looks in all their Technicolor glory is a new crew of shutterbugs and videographers. Among them is photographer Cruz Valentin, who swaps digital crispness for deliciously grainy 35mm analog film. She's often spotted at offbeat venues like the Neon Museum Las Vegas, where couples can tie the knot before a glowing chorus of historic signage and have enough room for up to 50 guests. For those craving yet more throwback magic, Valentin also offers instant Polaroids and captures the ceremony on original Kodak Super 8 film – not since your grandparents' road trip to Niagara Falls have these old-school cameras seen so much action. Getting hitched in Sin City has always been a vibe; it's just that now, a new generation is falling head over heels for its unique charms, often via the scroll of a social media feed, said Hybarger. 'Vegas weddings have always been cool! I think the couples getting married now care less about traditional norms and are really leaning into having enjoyable, beautiful experiences.' As newlyweds increasingly trade protocol for personality, Vegas just might be the bellwether for how Americans marry now: in wildly photogenic settings and proudly on their own terms.
