'The Blacklist' Season 6 Spoilers: Was Naomi Hyland Working With James Spader's Fake Red? Liz Keen Might Finally Learn The Truth
There is little doubt that The Blacklist has always kept its viewers guessing with shocking plot twists and surprise connections. The latest bombshell in The Blacklist Season 5 finale certainly proved that things could change in an instant. The revelation about the mysterious bones confirmed that James Spader's character is not the real Raymond Reddington. But did another dead character know the truth before it was unveiled? Will The Blacklist Season 6 shed light on Naomi Hyland's involvement with the fake Red?
The discovery about the fake Raymond Reddington is certainly a new one for audiences and Megan Boone's Liz Keen. However, there is a possibility that other people knew that James Spader's character was not the real Red all along. For instance, fans believe Naomi Hyland knew who he was right from the start. But is it possible that Mary-Louise Parker's character had been working with Red to protect his identity? Could Liz find out the truth in The Blacklist Season 6?
Jon Bokenkamp recently offered a clue as to how Liz Keen might deal with her new knowledge about the fake Red in The Blacklist Season 6. The executive producer told Entertainment Weekly that Megan Boone's character could delve deeper into Naomi Hyland's past in order to discover the truth about the imposter.
“If I were Elizabeth Keen, I would certainly sit down with the file of Naomi Hyland and scrub through that and see what stones may be left unturned,” Jon Bokenkamp stated before admitting that he is "really intrigued by the thread of truth that Liz can start to tug at and see how she unravels this mystery." So does this mean Mary-Louise Parker will return in The Blacklist Season 6 despite Naomi's death?
Although Jon Bokenkamp has teased on Naomi Hyland's possible role in the upcoming season, the executive producer also revealed that "there’s a number of different approaches" that Liz Keen might take in The Blacklist Season 6. Nevertheless, fans believe that Naomi and her daughter Jennifer Reddington could be one of the major clues to Fake Red's identity next year.
