His first acting job since Blue Bloods ended is a comedy — and it puts him back on screen with a co-star he last shared a baby with in 1987.
Selleck will guest-star in an Apple TV comedy series. It is his first announced acting role since Blue Bloods wrapped its 14th and final season in December 2024.
The series is still untitled. Banks stars as Heidi, a woman rebuilding her life with her kids after a messy divorce.
Heidi ends up managing her father's love life at his retirement community, which forces an awkward alliance with his girlfriend's grown-up son.
Heidi's father is played by Ted Danson — Selleck's co-star in Three Men and a Baby, the film that finished 1987 as the year's biggest box-office hit.
Rob Delaney, Katey Sagal, Jared Goldstein and Spencer Moss also star, with Hamish Linklater, Michelle Buteau and Simu Liu recurring. Selleck's role is under wraps.
He played the New York police commissioner from 2010 to 2024. The cast took 25% pay cuts to keep it alive; CBS ended it anyway, a call Selleck called a disappointment.
Magnum, P.I. ran in Hawaii from 1980 to 1988 and won him the 1984 Emmy for lead actor in a drama. The moustache became shorthand for the decade.
Magnum's producers would not release him to play Indiana Jones. The role went to Harrison Ford. Selleck has never framed it as a regret.
Born in January 1945, he has been married to Jillie Mack since 1987. They have a daughter, Hannah, and a 60-acre avocado ranch north-west of Los Angeles.
From a Hawaiian beach in 1980 to a retirement-community comedy in 2026, Selleck keeps landing on screen. Filming begins in Los Angeles this year.
