"Castle" is nearing its Season 7 finale, with no certainty about the show's renewal for Season 8 including Stana Katic's pending renewal of her contract.

"Castle" Season 7 finale episode spoilers reveal that Det. Kate Beckett will find herself at a crossroad. Speaking to TV Line, series creator Andrew Marlowe said that they have been working on a storyline for Beckett wherein she feels like she needs to do something with her life.
"Where does she go with family? Where does she go with her career? So she'll end up facing some choices in this that are a little bit unexpected, that may change the trajectory of where she's going," Marlowe teased.
Could this be the scene, which Marlowe previously revealed that whether or not "Castle" will get renewed for Season 8, the Season 7 finale episode will not leave fans with a cliffhanger? Marlowe revealed to the same outlet that creating a finale for the show without knowing about the show's future along with the cast posed a lot of challenges for him and the rest of the team.
"We were trying to craft a show that had a satisfying conclusion if it is indeed the conclusion, but also some really great, interesting, compelling springboards into next season's storytelling - if the gods shine upon us and we're allowed to continue," he said.
If "Castle" gets renewed for Season 8, the show will need a new showrunner, after David Amann stepped down from his post. Stana Katic's renewal for Season 8 is still up for negotiations, after the actress seemingly bid her fans farewell in a series of 24 behind-the-scenes photos on her Instagram account. Michael Ausiello of TV Line, however, said that there is "encouraging news" on Stana Katic's contract renewal.
