"We're really going to get the chance to spend more time with him as other than just a crime solver. We will see what his personal feelings might be with some of these people that he works most closely with, like him and Elizabeth Keen, but I also have a feeling with him and Reddington too."

The Blacklist star also spoke out about his excitement for finally being back on set. Lennix said:
