The Blacklist Season 9 — The Release Schedule

The Blacklist is an American crime thriller. It first premiered on NBC in September 2013. According to the rumours that are floating, Netflix will release the Blacklist season 9 at the end of 2022.

Many Netflix regions will be able to watch the 9th season later this year. After 174 episodes, The Blacklist is back with many new episodes on NBC. If you are following this show on Netflix, you have to wait but expect it soon.

The Plot

This season too, James Spader plays Raymond Reddington. “Red” Reddington or Raymond Reddington is a former criminal turned FBI informant. We have seen him helping the authorities capture various hardened criminals in the past seasons. Apart from his story, there are also other stories going around in the series which you surely shouldn’t miss.

The saga begins when Elizabeth Keen, a new FBI agent, comes face to face with a criminal, Raymond Reddington. Raymond, who was on “10 Most Wanted List,” turns himself in. This turns Elizabeth’s life upside down. Reddington promises to help the FBI capture various criminals.

The Cast

The cast includes James Spader as Raymond Reddington, Diego Klattenhoff plays Donald Ressler, Megan Boone as Elizabeth Keen, and Harry Lennix plays Harold Cooper.

Jon Bokenkamp wrote the first episode, and Joe Carnahan directed it. The executive producers are Bokenkamp (for the first eight seasons), John Eisendrath, and John Davis.

Each season got positive reviews, and even critics praised Spader’s performance. The plot was set in Washington, D.C. The series was filmed in Montreal, Quebec, and the surrounding suburbs.

The Release Schedule

When you will be able to watch season 9 will depend on where you live. Some areas receive weekly episodes; some receive the complete season, while others do not receive the seasons at all. For instance, India, Israel, South Korea, and Portugal are some countries that get the weekly dose of the show.

Other regions have to wait longer to watch season 9 of The Blacklist. Moreover, if your country got the weekly episode of season 8, then the probabilities are you would get the same treatment for season 9.

Netflix will add all episodes of all previous seasons before season 8 in the U.S. and Canada in September. This implies that season 9 will hit the U.S. in September 2022.

However, many European countries are still missing season 8. They might get season 8 in September and season 9 in 2023.

The Exceptions

Netflix U.K. has not aired a single episode of The Blacklist. This is because it neither has streaming rights nor broadcast rights. Sky has all the rights for airing The Blacklist.

Furthermore, The Blacklist’s rating dropped to a third of what it used to be. Initially, the number of viewers was 14.95 million in season 1. However, we see a drop to 4.57 million in season 8. According to our predictions, the show might return for another season after season 9.

Netflix will inform the fans soon as to exactly when it will air season 9 of The Blacklist. Keep watching Netflix to know more.
