Production






= Development

=
In March 2016, NBC began developing a spin-off series created by The Blacklist creator Jon Bokenkamp and showrunner John Eisendrath, who would both executive produce with John Davis and John Fox, the rest of their team from the original series. The project stars Famke Janssen as Susan "Scottie" Hargrave and Ryan Eggold reprising his role as Tom Keen, and was conceived to highlight a similar dynamic between Scottie and Tom to what Raymond "Red" Reddington (James Spader) has to Liz Keen (Megan Boone) on The Blacklist. Additionally, Janssen first appeared in the role in The Blacklist episode "Susan Hargrave" in May, with the following episode, "Alexander Kirk", serving as a backdoor pilot for the potential series. The new series, named The Blacklist: Redemption, was ordered on May 14. In October, David Amann was named the series' showrunner and executive producer. The series aired on Thursdays at 10 p.m., the same slot its mother series had for its fourth season. On May 12, 2017, NBC canceled the series after one season and Eggold returned to his role on The Blacklist. The Hollywood Reporter reported that the network made this decision following the first season's disappointing ratings compared to The Blacklist.




= Casting

=
The cast of The Blacklist: Redemption included Famke Janssen as Susan Hargrave, Ryan Eggold as Tom Keen, Edi Gathegi as Matias Solomon, and Tawny Cypress as Nez Rowan. Adrian Martinez was added in a recurring role as computer hacker Dumont. Eggold was having a main role on the original series, and was mostly absent from the show's fourth season due to filming a spin-off. The rest of the actors previously guest-starred on Blacklist, being introduced in the third season.
Terry O'Quinn was cast as Howard Hargrave, Tom's father, in a recurring role. Additional recurring characters in the series include Theodora Miranne as Kat Carlson, and Dan Amboyer as Daniel / "Trevor". Boone and Harry Lennix reprised their Blacklist roles as Elizabeth Keen and Harold Cooper, respectively, in the series. Showrunners reported it was highly unlikely for James Spader to reprise his role of Raymond Reddington, the original series’ titular character, in the first season of the spin-off; however, he could appear later in the series.

= Critical reception

The Blacklist: Redemption did not receive enough critical reviews to have a score on either Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic. In her review of the first episode, Sonia Saraiya of Variety wrote that she did not find the charisma of the series’ three main actors to equal that of The Blacklist's James Spader, while Jodi Walker of Entertainment Weekly wrote that the season was a satisfying foundation on which to create what she hoped would be better seasons.
