Sky Max has set a UK premiere date for the ninth season of The Blacklist, with the crime thriller returning on Wednesday May 11th at 9pm. It will also stream on NOW.
James Spader stars as Raymond “Red” Reddington, the master criminal turned FBI informant who has spent years helping a task force hunt down the dangerous figures on his “blacklist.” The new season opens two years after the death of Elizabeth Keen, with the task force disbanded and Red’s whereabouts unknown.
Scattered and each at a crossroads, the former members of the unit are eventually pulled back together by a shared purpose, reviving their original mission to bring down the criminals Red once steered them towards. Spader leads a returning cast that includes Diego Klattenhoff, Harry Lennix and Hisham Tawfiq.
