Before its official return on NBC, Season 5 already has a brand new “look” for Blindspot starring Jaimie Alexander and Sullivan Stapleton. After the shocking events of Season 4, will Jane Doe (Alexander) and Kurt Weller (Stapleton) find a way to clear their names?
As we previously mentioned, Jane Doe (Alexander) found herself mysteriously covered with bioluminescent tattoos. Jane’s only clues are covered all her tattooed body. With the help of her husband, Kurt Weller (Stapleton), and the FBI’s Critical Incident Response Group, Jane has to figure what these mysterious tattoos mean before a major disaster occurs.
[SPOILERS AHEAD!!] Here are 5 reasons we’re excited for Blindspot Season 5:
5) She’s Gone Blonde!
The caption states, “In case you missed it…Jane has gone blonde! In the photo released online, Jaimie Alexander can be seen wearing a bright green cap over her new blonde set of hair. Check out the tattoo on her neck as well!
4) More Fun!
On her official Instagram account, Alexander also shared a snapshot and writes, “Let’s see if they actually do have more fun….”
3) Tasha Fights Back!
As we previously mentioned, Audrey Esparza shared a behind-the-scenes look at the stunt-work for her role as Tasha Zapata. In the video, Esparza revealed the hard work and coordination it takes to complete the action sequence. She just flipped the guy over and punch his lights out!
2) A Harder Hit!
During our interview, stunt actress Heidi Germaine Schnappauf discusses doubling for Alexander, “Jaimie is the best experience as a stunt double I have ever had! She’s extremely kind, first of all. She’s willing to do everything to make it look good. Even if it means doing a certain move, allowing me to do a certain move, taking a harder hit, or starting a move and she’ll finish it; vice versa.”
1) That Cliffhanger!
When we last left Blindspot, during the fourth season finale, Jane (Alexander) witnessed their secret cabin exploding into a million pieces. Just before the explosion, Kurt (Stapleton) had patched things up with Reade (Rob Brown), Tasha (Esparza), and Patterson (Ashley Johnson). At this point, we’re not sure who’s in the casualty list from the drone attack!
Season 5 of Blindspot will premiere on NBC for its final season.
