We will just go back to those announcements days on 28th August that the series has been revived with a bunch of such key details revealed.
Recap

- The executive producers for the new season contain Robert Zemeckis, Jack Rake, Jacqueline Levine, and Len Goldstein.
- It seems that Warner Brothers TV, Compari Entertainment, Netflix Productions, and Universal Television as the production companies behind the series.
It seems that in the Hollywood Reporter article, Jeff Rake provided us an indication of what they can expect from season 4 referring to the final 20 episodes as “incredibly visual”.
There are some that have been speculated that we could experience a time group in season 4. It also could make sense provided that the series will eventually be coinciding with the death date in 2024.
It also could be referring to the bump in the budget the series likes getting for season 4. According to Puck News, the budget for each episode is enhanced by a million each from $4 to $5 million.
Rake said, “ I walked through a bunch of twists and turns, I’ve always had a bunch of big flags in the sand- things that would happen along the way. But the excellent news is that they are now going to be able to see them all [play out in real-time because the 20 episodes that I have been gifted allows me to take the entire roadmap that I already had planned out in front of me and overlay that over these 20 episodes. Fundamentally, I’m going to be able to continue telling the story that I was always going to tell.”
Manifest (Season 4): Cast Members
There are also such big issues surrounding the renewal as we have stated above was getting the cast on board.
In an interview with AllYourScreens before the Netflix renewal, Jeff Rake when asked about the cast members cast contracts said: ” In the weeks following the cancellation, the studio asked for the actors for a several week extension so they could shop around and see whether anyone wanted to pick up the show. And all of the actors were kind enough to do for a couple of more weeks. And then we got to a point where no one w3as immediately stepping up, and at this point, those contracts have expired.
So right now, those actors are out here as free agents. So that’s just one more hurdle we would have to overcome producing the show.”
It seems Josh Dallas, J.R. Ramirez, and Melissa Rexburg had the first two cast members had been confirmed for return. On 9th September, Parveen Kaur, Luna Blaise, and Holly Taylor had been confirmed to come back. Additionally, Ty Doran had been promoted to season regular.
On 10th September and it was also reported that Daryl Edwards who plays NSA director Robert Vance also has been promoted to regular series.
There is a key departure for the show thus also has been Jack Messina who also played the role of Cal. It is despite the fact and also it had been reported that Cal had to negotiate.
It seems that Matt Long mainly has the scheduling conflict due to the appearance in a new NBC pilot, Getaway TVLine reported that Matt Long also will be into the fourth season with Jeff Rake also telling the outlet coming and allow “Zeke to complete his Manifest journey just as originally intended.”
Manifest (Season 4): New Characters
It seems there are also such new castings gridding that we can confirm with a number of the new characters and also feature season 4.
Henry Kim: He is an Asian male between the ages of 50-80 years of age. It seems that the character must be approved frail and thin and also speak English with such a noticeable accent. It seems that the character also was one of the passengers of flight 828 who will come to Singapore where he also has been detained to Singapore as he is detained after miraculously coming. He also undergoes such the military tribunal due to the fear and suspicion of passengers aiding
Kyle Boyd: There is another passenger on Flight 828. It is also from the Indigenous fro]m the Hopi Tribe and white.

Episode 401 – TBD – Jeff Rake and Simran Baidwan and also directed by Romeo Tirone.
Manifest (Season 4): The Last and Final Season
Now the main question is why Netflix is set to renew the show as simply for only giving it a single season. As it seemed according to the aforementioned Hollywood Reporter article Jeff Rake “presented Netflix executives with three different options to wrap up the show” which were “A two-hour movie a six-episode limited series or full season.”
Many will know Jeff Rake originally planned the show to run for 6 seasons and Netflix’s expanded season will getting g the show relatively close.

We are going to work as fast as we can while still keeping an eye on quality control because we want to get episodes to everyone as soon as possible. We also want them to be excellent. It might take a minute for a brand new batch of episodes to show up in people’s homes and it is also going to be the worth wait.”
In early October 2021, we also got word that production was scheduled to start in November 2021. It will be filmed completely in New York again with much of the production taking place at Silver Cup Studios.;
It seems that the pre-production started in October 2021 with Empire State Grips posting that they had been beginning to get prepared for filming with an Instagram post with the caption “We are doing a thing again.”
On 18th November, there is the first picture from the set of Manifest was dropped by Jeff Rake who also confirmed that the show had been returned.
