The Blacklist will be back on NBC next season.
The procedural thriller's creator Jon Bokenkamp let slip that a fourth season is officially on the cards during an interview on The Blacklist Exposed podcast.
"We knew about that a while ago. It's one of those things that's hard to keep quiet," the writer admitted.
"Yes, we're renewed through the fourth season. Hopefully we don't tank that out. We've got a lot of story to tell."
The Blacklist's renewal by NBC comes even as the series has taken a bit of a ratings hit since moving from Mondays to Thursdays earlier this year.
Bokenkamp's programme remains a critical success, with two Golden Globe Award nominations under its belt thus far.
