The biggest change in the Blacklist Season 9 cast is the fact that Elizabeth Keen, played by Megan Boone, will no longer be in the series. As Elizabeth was shot in the final episode of Season 8, it seems that her death is certain and we will no longer see her, which breaks our hearts. With her tragic past, in which she killed her father to save her mother from his attack when she was only 4, Liz was one of the main highlights of the show.

Even though her removal will leave some blankness in the series for sure, both the showrunners and Boone expressed that the decision to leave the Blacklist was mutual. Boon also stated that she is ready to work on other projects now. 

Still, James Spader will be present as always. Donald Ressler, playing Diego Klattenhoff, Harold Cooper,  portraying Harry Lennix, Dembe Zuma, portraying Hisham Tawfiq, Alina Park, as Laura Sohn, and Aram Mojtabai, as Amir Arison) will also continue to be the part of this thrilling adventure.
