"The Blacklist" season 3 will see Liz and Red on the run. The duo are now on the police's Most Wanted list, and it looks like some changes will be made in order to make it hard for their pursuers to trail them. 

The first step is getting a new look. In a new clip, Liz sports a new hairdo. Apart from helping her in becoming unrecognizable to cops and to the world, the show had much more in mind in deciding to switch Liz's hairstyle. 

"What we hit on in the story is that by virtue of her being on the run and having to change her look, she ends up realizing that she may look like her mother," executive producer Jon Bokenkamp told Entertainment Weekly. "It felt like a really nice, organic way to take the on-the-run story of two fugitives and yet tie it back into the mythology of who Liz is, who Red is, what their relationship is and to lean into the bigger question of identity." 

Season 3 will pick up right where season 2 left off, which is Liz realizing she was responsible for her father's death. Bokenkamp said in a separate interview that Liz is working hard to resist such "criminal instinct" but she feels that she is actually embracing it now that she's on the run. 

While Red helps her cope, they both make sure they will be able to get out of D.C. before it goes on a lockdown. While being on the Most Wanted list sounds like nothing but trouble, the EP said Liz will be able to take advantage of this. 

"The idea of who she is, what her past is, who her mother was, her ties to Russia, those all play into how she's going to have to survive," Bokenkamp told Entertainment Weekly in a separate interview. 

"The Blacklist" season 3 airs Oct. 1.
