'The Blacklist' Season 6 Spoilers: James Spader's Red Might Not Be An Imposter? Liz Keen Possibly Missed Out On This Important Detail
Fans are still reeling from the shocking reveal in The Blacklist Season 5 finale as Elizabeth Keen discovered that the bones in the bag belong to Raymond Reddington. But does this confirm that James Spader has been playing an imposter right from the start? A new The Blacklist Season 6 theory about Fake Red suggests that Megan Boone's character still has a lot to learn about the man she met in the NBC show's pilot episode and that Liz's significant discovery is only the tip of the iceberg.
The identity of Fake Red has been a huge secret since the first episode of The Blacklist – although executive producer Jon Bokenkamp has admitted that James Spader knew he was playing an imposter all along. However, the truth about Raymond Reddington might not be as easy to unveil as Liz Keen had thought. Could The Blacklist Season 6 reveal that Liz had forgotten an important detail that was mentioned in a previous exchange with Red?
CinemaBlend has offered a new theory about Fake Red that might explain why James Spader's character was initially identified as Raymond Reddington. There is a possibility that Dead Red, who is said to be Liz Keen's father, was the identical twin brother of Fake Red. This would explain why Fake Red insists that Liz had killed her father and why keeping the bones a secret was a big deal. Fake Red may have wanted people to think there was only one Raymond Reddington because both twins have been using the same identity for some time. But how could the truth come to light in The Blacklist Season 6?
There have been speculations that Naomi Hyland will play a major role in the next season although the character has already been killed off. There is a possibility that Liz Keen will investigate what Jennifer Reddington's mother knew about Fake Red and if she was secretly working with James Spader's character. It is possible that Naomi learned the truth about the twins and her knowledge about their scheme would be revealed in The Blacklist Season 6.
NBC has not yet announced The Blacklist Season 6 air date. However, the series is expected to resume in 2019.
