After an amazing season 7 with a lot of cliff hangers, fans are eagerly waiting for the next season of The Blacklist. The story revolves around one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives, Raymond “Red” Reddington, who reforms and offers to help the authorities if a specific rookie agent, Elizabeth Keen, partners with him.
Plot
In season 7, Red is seen alone in hostile territory, surrounded by old enemies and possible allies. Red has to make sure to stay one step ahead of the Blacklist’s most dangerous criminal, who will stop at nothing to unleash the very truth Red wants no one to know about. And to find it, Katarina insinuates herself into Liz’s life, who has reunited with her daughter Agnes. Her presence is a problem for Liz’s life and it changes her relationship with red forever. So the story for season 8 will continue from where it left off.
Is There a Season 8?
The Blacklist fans there is wonderful news. The Blacklist is renewed for season 8. As for when the series is releasing, there hasn’t been an official announcement. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the ending of the previous season had to be altered. And now we don’t know when the next season will start its production.
Cast
James Spader will be back as Reddington “Red”, Megan Bone as Liz Keene, Diego Klattenhoff as Donald Ressler, and Harry Lennix as Harold Cooper. We are not sure if Lotte Verbeek will return as Katarina Rostova as she had a negative role in the previous season. Regretfully Brian Dennehy who played Dom has passed away due to Covid-19 so we will not be seeing him again.

There is a promising theory of Liz’s real father. It seems that Reddington is Liz’s real father! This could be a major plot twist in season 8!
