'The Blacklist' Season 3: Dembe To Battle The Monstrous Mr Solomon? Hisham Tawfiq Teases New Villain
The Blacklist's Mr. Solomon better watch his back - Dembe is more than ready to take on the Cabal's next threat.
Liz Keen (Megan Boone) and Mr. Raymond 'Red' Reddington (James Spader) are on the run, and the criminal duo have both the FBI and the Cabal on their backs. Unfortunately, the later is more prone to taking an illicit approach to their problems, and the clandestine organization will debut Mr. Solomon (Edi Gathegi) as season 3 gets underway.
"I think I can tell you that there is a villain, Mr. Solomon, who is very interesting, and I have some dealings with him," Hisham Tawfiq (Dembe) teased on Fox's In the Zone.

Dembe has managed to take down two seasons worth of threats, but his skills are not quite as impenetrable as one may hope - Red's season 2 shooting was a sobering reminder of the team's limitations. Solomon is bad news, and Dembe better make sure all his ducks are in a row before he even thinks about engaging with the Cabal's newest "monster."
"[Solomon] essentially handles the dirty work for the Cabal," Entertainment Weekly teased. "Unassuming and soft-spoken on the surface, [Solomon has] a hidden (and terrifying) capacity for violence."
Keep your eyes peeled for the Dembe/Solomon dynamic when The Blacklist returns to NBC on Oct. 1 at 9 p.m. ET.
