‘Manifest’ Season 4 Part 2: Netflix Release Date & Everything We Know So Far

Manifest Season 4, part 2 is returning to Netflix for its final season with the last ten episodes this June. Here’s everything we know about the upcoming final season of Manifest.

This post is an extension of the main Manifest season 4 preview we compiled and updated throughout 2021 and 2022. It’s worth reading that post as we covered Netflix’s revival timeline of the show, plus information on the first half of the final season.

As a quick recap, Manifest was destined to be canceled by NBC after concluding its third season on the network. Then after a surprise license to Netflix, the show’s popularity exploded over the summer of 2021, eventually leading to the show’s final season renewal exclusively at Netflix.

Seasons 1 to 4 are streaming in most regions worldwide, with a notable exception being Netflix in the United Kingdom which only has access to season 4.

What to expect from Manifest Season 4 Part 2

Let’s kick off with the official synopsis for the second half of season 4 per Netflix:

“In the aftermath of Angelina unleashing a devastating volcanic fissure, the passengers face severe scrutiny in a world fueled by 828er hate, no longer free to solve their own Callings without constant supervision by the unscrupulous 828 Registry. A mysterious accident delivers ominous warnings on a biblical scale that will further jeopardize the livelihood of all the passengers.

As Michaela grieves the loss of her beloved husband Zeke, she must team up with her old flame Jared to find new methods to investigate Callings. Meanwhile, Ben and Saanvi attempt to collaborate with the Registry authorities, which only leads to dire results for the passengers. Miraculously, a mythological event reactivates Cal’s sapphire-laden dragon scar, offering a glimmer of hope for the 828ers to survive the rapidly approaching Death Date. But Angelina’s nefarious sapphire powers continue to wreak havoc, leading to a struggle between good and evil down to their very last day in this most terrifying, suspenseful and joyous chapter of the Manifest story.”

Before digging into some speculation on part 2 is headed, here’s a quick recap of the events of “Inversion Illusion,” the 10th episode of season 4:

During the fight of the final episode, the Sapphire shatters, and the US Government initiates an Emergency Order to detain all 828 passengers until further notice. A Registry team, led by Dr. Gupta, breaks into Vance’s lab while Zeke (who will not return in part 2) sacrifices to save Cal from leukemia. In the end, Angelina manages to escape with a piece of the Omega Sapphire stuck in her hand.

The closing scene of Manifest midseason finale ultimately saw the town rupturing, giving off major Stranger Things vibes.

Moving into the new final batch of episodes, Cal is clearly the key to being humanity’s only shot at saving humanity. At the same time, Angelina has emerged from the wreckage even more powerful than before.

Speaking to EW, showrunner Jeff Rake said that the “second half [of season 4] is much more about the community of 828 passengers,” adding “Without giving away too much, we’ll be focused every episode on that larger community throughout the second block all the way up to the Death Date. It used to be 191 passengers. We’ve lost a few along the way. Now, will Ben and Michaela and Cal and Olive be at the center of that? They will be. We’ve talked about Ben and Michaela being the co-captains of the lifeboat of these passengers, and this final block will allow us to showcase them in that role more than ever, because they’ll be interacting with that community of passengers every day, every episode.”

Netflix’s Still Watching Netflix account has uploaded a cast reaction to the season 4 part 1 cliffhanger.

Jeff Rake breaks down the cliffhanger at the end by saying, “It’s not just about the 191 passengers,” adding, “we discover it’s about the whole world. These heroes and villains now realize that everything going on is much more important than just them, so the stakes are way up.”

Josh Dallas teased the final batch of episodes to TV Line, saying, “where our characters end up is going to be surprising.”

He added, “For Ben, and for the rest of the Stone family, I think there is an element of trying to understand Angelina’s darkness to understand their own goodness and understand where her motivation and anger comes from. Ben tries to do that to figure out his own place in this story.”

Netflix Life spoke to a couple of actors from the show about the final half of season 4 and asked Daryl Edwards if he was surprised where his character ends up by the end of season 4, to which he responded:

“I was completely surprised. We did a table read and our director and showrunner pointed out something that I had missed and I was more shocked. I think you all are going to be rocked by the ending.”

Could there be a season 5 of Manifest?

Right now, the answer looks to be no. When the series was revived, it was done so to bring the overarching storyline to a close.

Showrunner Jeff Rake has also told TVLine that by the end of episode 20, all your questions will be answered, saying:

“You can expect us to return to lots of our open-ended Easter eggs and us answering [all the remaining questions] as many as possible; I’m hoping that you’ll find that we answered them all.”

With all that said, stranger things have happened. After all, Lucifer was given a supersized final season and was eventually renewed for an additional final season.
