Ron Perlman is bringing anarchy to NBC's The Blacklist. The actor has signed on to play the drama's next mega criminal when it returns on Feb. 1 behind the Super Bowl.
Perlman will appear as Luther Braxton, a meticulous thief who plans his international heists over the course of several months or years. The ruthless baddie creates great diversions and chaos to get what he wants — that is, until he faces off with Red Reddington (James Spader).
The episode will mark The Blacklist's return after a holiday hiatus (the show aired its fall finale on Monday) and also serve as a springboard to help promote the show's move to Thursday nights.
