BLINDSPOT SEASON 2

Blindspot premierd on Wednesday 14th this month and if you want to say Blindspot resumed from where last season left off would be an understatement. Its rocketing towards something even more fun. Martin Gero reveals new clues about season-mystery and crafting Jane Doe’s identity.

If viewers were feeling antsy heading into Wednesday’s second season premiere of NBC drama Blindspot, odds are they left feeling pretty damn satisfied. The return picked up three months from where last season’s finale left off, with Jane (Jaimie Alexander) finally escaping the clutches of the CIA’s dark torture room and incoming character Nas (Archie Panjabi) convincing Jane’s former team to reconnect with her in order to bring down the terrorist organization now known as “Sandstorm.”
And that was just the beginning. Before the hour was up viewers learned that Jane Doe’s real name is indeed Alice Kruger (as avid fans deduced), and that Roman (Luke Mitchell), who was previously seen as a younger kid in a flashback, is actually Jane’s brother. Oh, and Shepherd — the supposed mastermind of it all? Turns out she’s actually Jane’s foster mother (Michelle Hurd) and she’s not convinced that Jane isn’t a double agent.
At this point, it’s unclear if Jane herself knows which side she’s on, but to make matters worse, viewers also learned there’s a mole inside the FBI. And it’s one of the show's established characters. Topping it all off were two quick snapshots at the very end: One of Jane in a soldier's uniform, and another of Shepherd and Roman overlooking a giant rocket.
To stop heads from spinning and find out what else could possibly be in store for the second season, THR sat down with creator and showrunner Martin Gero. Here he breaks down the planning that goes into these clues and those types of twists, what fans need to know about the mole, and crafting a midseason finale that may blow everyone’s minds.
