The Blacklist Is [SPOILER] Really Dead

Characters seemingly die all the time on The Blacklist only to later turn up alive, so is Liz Keen really dead? NBC series The Blacklist is a crime thriller with more twists and turns than a rollercoaster ride. James Spader stars as criminal mastermind and wanted fugitive Raymond “Red” Reddington who turns himself in to the FBI and offers to help them track down other dangerous criminals on one condition; he will only work with rookie FBI profiler Elizabeth “Liz” Keen (Megan Boone).

Liz’s world was thrown upside down after Red waltzed his way into her life. Not only did Liz discover that her husband Tom (Ryan Eggold) was a spy hired to marry and keep tabs on her, she also learned dark secrets about her past – namely that she’s biologically related to Red and that her mother was a KGB agent. During the third season of The Blacklist, Liz was also forced to fake her own death not once but twice to avoid getting killed for real by some of the criminals her work and association with Red brought her way.

So, when Liz died in Red’s arms during The Blacklist season 8 finale after being shot in the back by one of crime lord Neville Townsend’s (Reg Rogers) henchmen, longtime fans wondered whether her apparent death might be another yet another red herring. After all, it wouldn’t be out of character for Liz to fake her own death (again) plus she’s a main character in The Blacklist so really killing her off would be quite a drastic, game-changing move.

The Blacklist Is [SPOILER] Really Dead

Unfortunately, it seems that Liz actually did die this time around. Shortly before the season 8 finale aired, news broke that both The Blacklist creator Jon Bokenkamp and Liz Keen actress Megan Boone was leaving the series for pastures new. According to several sources, the writing team behind The Blacklist knew that the season 8 finale would be Boone’s final episode and so had plenty of time to plan storylines that would conclude Liz’s arc and set the stage for her exit.

Still, that hasn’t stopped The Blacklist fandom from speculating that Liz’s latest death could be yet another fake out, or even from creating more outlandish theories like the “Liz” who was killed in the season 8 finale was actually a clone of the real Liz. Both Megan Boone and Liz Keen’s departure does seem pretty final, however, and with The Blacklist season 9 set to premiere in October 2021 viewers will find out for sure soon enough.
