The entreaties of Manifest fans have been heard – and Netflix has picked up the show for a fourth and final season.

Although the series was originally planned to run six years, it was cancelled at NBC after three. A major fan campaign has been mounted to get it onto Netflix, who have had ratings success with the first two years.

The twenty-episode season will wrap up the story – although as with many Netflix shows, “one season” may been two or three drops of episodes.

“What started years ago as a flight of fancy deep in my imagination has evolved into the jet engine journey of a lifetime,” said showrunner Jeff Rake. “Never in my wildest dreams could I have envisioned the worldwide outpouring of love and support for this story, its characters, and the team who work so hard to bring it all to life. That we will be able to reward the fans with the ending they deserve moves me to no end. On behalf of the cast, the crew, the writers, directors, and producers, thank you to Netflix, to Warner Bros., and of course to the fans. You did this.”

“Since its premiere on Netflix in June, Manifest has proven very popular with our members,” said Bela Bajaria, Netflix head of global TV. “Jeff Rake and his team have crafted a beguiling mystery that has viewers around the world on the edge of their seats and believing again in second chances, and we’re thrilled that they will bring fans some closure with this final super-sized season.”
