Manifest is created by Jeff Rake, an American supernatural drama television series that premiered on September 24, 2018, on NBC. The first episode of Jeff Rake’s American supernatural drama television series Manifest aired on NBC on September 24, 2018.
The focus is on the passengers and crew of a commercial airliner who unexpectedly surface after going missing for five and a half years and were thought to be dead. Josh Dallas, Athena Karkanis, J. R. Ramirez, Luna Blaise, Jack Messina, Parveen Kaur, Matt Long, Holly Taylor, Daryl Edwards, and Ty Doran are among the actors who appear in it.
