'The Blacklist' Season 4 Spoilers, News & Update: EP Confirms Kirk As Liz's Father; Liz And Red Will Be Romantic In The New Season?

At this time the American crime-thriller TV series, "The Blacklist" is on hiatus. However, after its cliffhanger finale last season, fans can't help wondering what's in store for the characters in "The Blacklist" Season 4. According to news reports, Red (James Spader) is not Liz's (Megan Boone) biological dad. In fact, the two might get romantic in the new season.

'The Blacklist' EP Confirms Alexander Kirk Is Liz's Real Dad In

"The Blacklist" Season 3 ended with Alexander Kirk abducting Liz and her family. The finale confirmed that Liz is still alive, but it dropped another bombshell. Alexander Kirk (Ulrich Thomsen) is Liz's biological dad.

There is no doubt that "The Blacklist" fans are torn if Kirk is indeed Liz's real dad. However, Jon Bokenkamp has only one thing to say, which suggests that we should believe Kirk.

"I don't know why we wouldn't believe him. Red's said before that he's not Liz's father," Bokenkamp told Entertainment Weekly. "This man shows up in her life and says he's her father. Liz should take him at his word. She thought she shot her father. It raises a number of questions, which is going to be the joy of season 4."

Parent Herald previously reported that Red had an affair with Katarina Rostova, who was already married and that Liz is their love child. However, other sources claimed that Kirk is Rostova's husband and that Liz is their child.
