The Blacklist's Liz Keen and Raymond 'Red' Reddington are embarking on a 'love story' as the NBC series heads into season 2.

'The Blacklist' Planning A 'Feature Film' Two-Part Episode For Superbowl, Dictates Entire Season

Liz Keen (Megan Boone) has very few people in her life that she can trust and only one person that holds the keys to her past. Although Red (James Spader) can undoubtedly be considered one of the more shady characters on The Blacklist, Boone believes that he will become the character that Liz will trust the most.

"I think The Blacklist is a love story...I think that at the core of it, the thing that people talk about the most are the relationships that Lizzy has, that she has with Red, that she has with Tom and Ressler, even," Boone told the Gold Derby. "For some reason, I think that because she's so alone and so ambiguous as a human being there's something in the audience that wants her to find a place and find a person that she can rely on. So I think ultimately the payoff, and the only payoff you could see is that she ends up finding that person."
