The Blacklist: Season Seven; NBC Finale to Be Live-Action Animation Hybrid

by Jessica Pena, May 5, 2020

The Blacklist TV show on NBC: (canceled or renewed?)

The Blacklist has something special in store. NBC just announced the TV show’s season seven finale will be a live-action/animation hybrid.

The thriller centers on one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives, Raymond “Red” Reddington (James Spader), who offers to help the authorities if a specific rookie agent, Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone), partners with him. The cast also includes Diego Klattenhoff, Amir Arison, Hisham Tawfiq and Harry Lennix.

According to NBC, The Blacklist was halfway through filming its season seven finale when production shut down because of the ongoing pandemic. Fortunately, producers came up with the solution to do half the episode in a graphic novel-style animation. The special season finale will premiere on NBCon May 15th at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

Read more info below:

  • The seventh season finale of NBC’s acclaimed drama, “The Blacklist,” airing May 15 (8p.m. ET/PT) is ending the season in style with a unique hybrid of live-action and graphic novel-style animation.
  • The season’s 19th episode, entitled “The Kazanjian Brothers,” was midway into filming in New York when TV productions across the industry were halted due to COVID-19. Looking to do something out of the box to finish the episode and close out the season, producers came up with an idea to add graphic novel-style animation that would incorporate with the already filmed live-action scenes.
  • Cast members recorded dialogue from their homes for the animated scenes to ensure a seamless transition between the two styles, as editors and animators complete their work remotely.
  • Episode logline: The Task Force investigates an accountant who works for lucrative criminals in order to find the violent and thuggish brothers hired for his protection. Liz must make a momentous decision. Presented in a unique hybrid of live-action and graphic novel-style animation. Guest starring: Brian Dennehy, Laila Robins
  • NBC announced in February that “The Blacklist” has been renewed for an eighth season. The 150th episode of the series will air May 8 (8 p.m. ET/PT)
  • “The Blacklist” stars James Spader, Megan Boone, Diego Klattenhoff, Amir Arison, Hisham Tawfiq and Harry Lennix.
  • John Eisendrath, Jon Bokenkamp, John Davis, John Fox, James Spader, Lukas Reiter, J.R. Orci, and Laura A. Benson serve as executive producers. “The Blacklist” is a production of Davis Entertainment in association with Sony Pictures Television and Universal Television.”

What do you think? Do you watch The Blacklist? Are you excited for the hybrid finale?

This is what I love about “The Blacklist” production, having animation is going to be assume. This show is one of the best and I hope it goes on for many years, the suspense they keep you wondering and just when you think you figured it out, wham you do not know anything.
So sad we have come to the season end, time to watch reruns of the Blacklist, never get tired of it.

I love Blacklist. James Spader is Reddington through and through. The crazy criminals he has the Task Force go after are like nothing else we’ve ever seen before. And have we ever seen a sidekick like Denbay? This finale should not disappoint. Bring on season18!
