Blue Bloods’ Will Hochman has been cast in Vought Rising, Amazon’s upcoming prequel to The Boys, and his former co-stars are over the moon.
Will shared the news on social media simply adding two red exclamation marks, and his Blue Bloods co-star Donnie Wahlberg was quick to share his support, commenting: “Let’s goooooooo!”
“Yes!!!!!!” added Abigail Hawk.
Vought Rising will also star Supernatural’s Jensen Ackles and Aya Cash from You’re The Worst , and has been described as a 1950s “twisted murder mystery.
Jensen, who also appeared in The Boys, will reprise his role as Soldier Boy, and Aya as Stormfront, as Clara Vought.
The Boys was a satirical comedy about superheroes, following a group of vigilantes who team up to combat individuals with superpowers who use them for personal gain.
In Blue Bloods Will starred as Joseph “Joe” Hill, a detective in the New York City Police Department, and the son of Joseph Reagan and Paula Hill; Joseph had died 15 months before the start of the series.
Will joined Blue Bloods in season 10 when his cousin Sean ran DNA through a genealogy website and discovered the existence of Joe.
Joe had been raised by his mom who never told his father that she was pregnant. She had only told Joe that his father was a police officer and that saw him enter the NYPD.

‘I’ve been working on the show with these wonderful people for four years now. That’s a lot of shared life. We travel to locations together. We talk between takes. We film into the night and trade stories and snack on too many Peanut M&Ms. I love the people I work with on Blue Bloods. They’re excellent and curious and imaginative and courageous and funny as hell. It’s a real community. I feel grateful I get to belong to it.”
