Jaimie Alexander and Sullivan Stapleton: From FBI to the Big Screen
The central dynamic of Blindspot was the complex, evolving relationship between Jane Doe and Kurt Weller, and the actors who played them have continued to pursue high-profile projects since the series concluded its five-season run in 2020. The two leads remain highly active in the entertainment industry, with several new projects slated for release in the near future.
Jaimie Alexander (Jane Doe) continues to balance her career between television and film. She is a permanent fixture in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the Asgardian warrior Lady Sif, a role she reprised in the Disney+ series Loki. Looking ahead, Alexander is anticipated to have several upcoming movie releases in 2025 and 2026, solidifying her status as a leading action star. Her public appearances remain high-profile, including her attendance at the Museum of Modern Art Film Benefit in New York City in November 2025.
Sullivan Stapleton (Kurt Weller) has also maintained a strong presence in the action genre. Known for his work in Strike Back, Stapleton is confirmed to be part of the cast for the upcoming film The Internship, which is currently scheduled for a 2026 release. While the details of his 2025 projects are still emerging, the Australian actor remains a sought-after talent for high-octane roles, building on his established reputation from his time as Agent Weller and his earlier work in films like 300: Rise of an Empire.
Patterson, Mayfair, and Borden: Major 2025 Career Shifts
The supporting cast members, who were instrumental in solving the intricate puzzles of the coded tattoos and the larger conspiracy, have seen some of the most significant and recent career developments, particularly in 2025.
Marianne Jean-Baptiste (Bethany Mayfair), who played the troubled FBI Assistant Director, has earned critical acclaim for her latest film work. In early 2025, she took a star turn in the new Mike Leigh film Hard Truths, a performance that The New Yorker called "for the ages." Her work on the film led to her being featured prominently at the BAFTAs in February 2025, marking a major highlight in her post-Blindspot career and demonstrating her continued mastery of dramatic roles.
Ashley Johnson (Patterson) has leveraged her immense popularity in the world of voice acting and tabletop gaming. While she is still recognized for her brilliant work as the FBI’s forensic expert tasked with deciphering Jane Doe’s body art, her primary focus remains her work on the massively popular live-streamed Dungeons & Dragons show Critical Role, where she is a core cast member. Johnson continues to be involved in the show's spin-off projects, including the animated series The Legend of Vox Machina, and is highly anticipated for the upcoming The Mighty Nein animated project in 2025.
Ukweli Roach (Dr. Robert Borden) has made a major move into leading roles in UK television and theatre. Most notably, he took the lead role of DI Jack Caffrey in the BBC crime thriller series Wolf, a character obsessed with a cold case, which premiered to significant buzz. Furthermore, Roach is set to star in the new National Theatre production of the play Bacchae in London in July 2025, confirming his strong presence on both screen and stage.
Reade and Zapata: From FBI Field Agents to Acclaimed Dramas
The two field agents who formed the backbone of Kurt Weller's team, Reade and Zapata, have also found success in various television and film roles, further cementing their reputations as versatile actors.
Rob Brown (Edgar Reade), known for his dramatic intensity, has taken on roles in other acclaimed television dramas. Following his time as Agent Reade, Brown was cast in the HBO miniseries We Own This City (2022), a critically praised project by David Simon (creator of The Wire). He also had a main role in the USA Network series Shooter (2016-2017). His career continues to focus on complex, character-driven narratives, a stark contrast to the high-concept action of Blindspot.
Audrey Esparza (Tasha Zapata), whose character had one of the most tumultuous emotional journeys on the show—including her struggles with gambling debt and her complex relationship with Agent Reade—has continued her work in television. While a major 2025 project has not been announced, Esparza is known for her prior work in the Starz series Power and the ABC medical drama Black Box. She has also used her platform to advocate for various social issues, maintaining a public presence beyond her acting roles.
The entire original Blindspot Season 1 cast has successfully transitioned from the intense world of Jane Doe’s tattoo clues and the overarching conspiracy of the Sandstorm organization. Whether they are starring in 2025 film festival favorites, leading BBC thrillers, or dominating the world of voice acting, the legacy of the show's first season continues to propel their careers forward.
