Manifest season 4 will pick back up filming in January 2022. We’ve also got some news about some characters that are set to feature in season 4 plus another director who will be working on the fourth and final Netflix series.
Quick context before we dive into the news for Manifest season 4.
Netflix managed to revive Manifest from NBC over the summer after scoring big numbers when it was released on Netflix in the US and Canada. It’s been renewed for a fourth and supersized final season that’s likely due to release in 2022 (and later for some regions).
Filming kicked off on the fourth season backing November 2021 but as with most productions, has taken a break over the Christmas holidays. We don’t know exactly how far filming has gotten nor do we know when it’s scheduled to wrap up.
What we do know is that the plan is to pick up filming again on Manifest season 4 on January 10th, 2022 assuming all things go to plan.
Jeff Rake most recently took to Twitter on Christmas Day to wish Manifesters a Merry Christmas and promises that “Your gift is in the works!”

New Characters To Feature in Manifest Season 4
We can also reveal a few new characters that will feature (albeit in very minor roles in season 4).
The first is Kyle Boyd who was a passenger on Flight 828. The character description notes that Kyle is not attending his regularly scheduled 828 registry appointments as he’s supposed to. Additional notes state that he’s “Indigenous from the Hopi Tribe and white.”
Two minor characters that will also feature in season 4 will include Tela and June. Tela is an Indigenous from the Shinnecock Indian Nation and June is an Indigenous from the Hopi Tribe and “infirmed in a hospital bed”.
These three new characters aren’t the only new characters to feature in season 4. In November we reported that Henry Kim is another character to feature in season 4.
