'Blue Bloods' star Tom Selleck is releasing a new memoir about his life and career, revealing he had not always planned on being an actor.

Tom Selleck did not set out to become an actor, let alone the star of two hit series, 'Magnum, P.I.' and 'Blue Bloods.' Speaking with People for their cover story on the actor, he revealed, 'It is really the story of an accidental career. I’d never taken an acting class. I had no training, no desire.' 'People would say, ‘Oh, he was bitten by the acting bug’ or, ‘He wanted to be a star,’' he added. 'I’ve never talked that way in my life.

Selleck and Mack spend much of their time together on his California ranch, where they often review the upcoming 'Blue Bloods' scripts. 'I’m one of the last guys to see it, and I’m a good editor,' Selleck, also an executive producer on the show, said. 'Blue Bloods' is entering its final season later this year, and the 79-year-old is grateful for his lengthy if unexpected career.

’ve had a very good life, a very lucky life,' he said. 'I don’t know if it’s what I figured I’d be doing, but it’s with a lot of gratitude.'
