In The Blacklist episode “Greyson Blaise,” while Tom (Ryan Eggold) discovers remains of a body in a suitcase, Red (James Spader) and Liz (Megan Boone) are out to catch Greyson Blaise, a billionaire who likes to steal high-end art. His lifestyle is similar to that of Pierce Brosnan’s or Steve McQueen’s in The Thomas Crown Affair. Red pretends his an art collector and lures Greyson with a Rembrandt painting that’s been missing for 30 years.

He’s known for his roles on TURN: Washington’s Spies (Benedict Arnold), The Mentalist (Agent Wayne Rigsby), Extant (Dr. Mason), and Kitchen Confidential with Bradley Cooper (Steve Daedalus), among others. Yeoman made his acting debut in the 2004 film Troy with Brad Pitt (Lysander). The Blacklist airs Wednesday at 8pm on NBC.

As the series finale of @turnamc looms tonight I want to take a moment to personally thank each and every wonderful fan and supporter of our beloved show. Working for @amc alongside such a talented, passionate and committed cast with such first rate material from our extraordinary writers has been a dream for me. I will forever treasure the dubious honor of playing America’s greatest traitor Benedict Arnold. The creative journey has been a spectacular ride and supported by the hardest working behind the scenes crew in the business we have worked late into the night to bring the origins of our great country to you as dramatic tv entertainment. I miss each and every wonderful member of this project but will also miss the passion and enthusiasm that you the fans bring every week to a new episode of @turnamc. Enjoy tonight’s finale. We are beyond proud of what we have achieved in these four seasons and thankyou all from the bottom of our hearts for being the best and most loyal fans a show could ever wish for!
