The Blacklist star James Spader has given a sneak peek into the show's highly anticipated finale. With a decade-long run and over 200 episodes, NBC is pulling out all the stops for the conclusion of this beloved procedural. The network has scheduled a two-hour series finale, set to air on July 13, and has even released photos teasing what's to come in the farewell episodes titled "Raymond Reddington #00: Part One" and "Raymond Reddington #00: Good Night," showing Spader's character, Raymond Reddington, on a thrilling pursuit.

I was immensely pleased that we were able to conclude it exactly as planned. The ending was intentional and we anticipated its arrival. The ending exudes confidence and we fully embrace it.

What To Know About The Blacklist Series Finale
Red being the target this time around is confirmed based on the titles of the last episodes. This pattern echoes the structure seen in episodes centered around other criminals on the blacklist. In these two-part episodes, we have witnessed the fates of various characters, such as in "Luther Braxton: Conclusion" and "Anslo Garrick: Conclusion." However, it is important to note that the format is not exactly the same.
For the final episode of The Blacklist, the cast traveled to Spain for on-location filming. While the show has previously featured episodes set in different parts of the world, this marks the first time in the series' history that an episode was shot outside of New York. Alongside the anticipation of what will happen to Reddington, this outing promises to be eventful as loose ends are tied up in other storylines.
In its final two hours, the show's main Task Force will strive to predict Red's upcoming actions while grappling with mounting scrutiny from Congressman Arthur Hudson (played by Toby Leonard Moore) and his inquiry. This farewell will be hectic for one of network television's under-the-radar triumphs, as well as for the streaming platform, as The Blacklist enjoys substantial viewership through its licensing agreement with Netflix.
