![]() When asked if Fiona and Daly had traveled in time, Rake jokingly replied: "Did you really think I’d answer this one? That answer won’t be coming for a long, long time." He also refused to talk about Cal being the Holy Grail, but did mention, "you are right that his abilities are stronger and different from the others. Rake remained secretive about most of the plot, but he did drop some subtle clues, as he does. It seems the way Rake has established his storyline, 'Manifest' will not be over soon. Once the castings were settled, Rake established that he "came up with the end when came up with the beginning." Rake had a six-year plan for the series and it looks like 'Manifest' will return quite a number of times. On the other hand, Melissa was literally the second person to show up on the first day of auditions and nailed it." Sometimes, it can take weeks and weeks to find the right person. Josh happened to be in LA with me and we were able to sit in a room together. Athena was in Toronto at the time and sent in a tape of herself auditioning. We looked at dozens and dozens of actors for each and every role. Is Saanvi right?! /SNNKzYYlabĪs Rake explained: "Casting is a long and painstaking process. Thanks for live tweeting another #Manifest episode with us! We'll see you back here next Monday for the season finale. I know it’s not a new premise but it’s so mysterious and just interesting to think how people would react if this did happen." In order to come up with a family who would be adored by the audience, Rake needed a perfect cast but that was not an easy task. I like the twist and turns and surprises. "I personally like the aspect of drama mixed with mystery. During MEAWW's conversation with fans over Reddit, several claimed it is the gritty drama about an estranged family that pulled them to the show. (IMDb)įans absolutely love the drama wrapped in a shroud of mystery as it leaves space for both indulgence and entertainment. Family forms the core of Jeff Rake's story and it is from their perspective that we observe the incidents of the plane. The plane device added a mysterious supernatural element that allowed the show to be working in multiple genres at once." Let's just say his plan worked. So, the idea of family being separated or torn apart by some traumatic event that resulted in missing out on years of togetherness was, for me, a sort of nightmarish brainstorm - one that I thought a lot of people would relate to and understand on a guttural level. I am lucky enough to be in a loving marriage and have four healthy, amazing kids. He explained: "Family is everything to me. Rake confessed that telling the story from the point of view of a family was necessary. Rake weaved the rest of the show and its incidents surrounding the family as Ben and Michaela try to solve the case of the missing plane, while Ben's son, Cal, almost plays the role of a soothsayer as he leads his father to his required destination. 'Manifest' revolves largely around the Stone family whose three members were on the plane. ![]() Certainly, the creator did not reveal too much, but what from he did reveal, it seemed likely we will have another season of 'Manifest' in order to solve the mystery of the missing plane. MEA WorldWide (MEAWW) reached out to Rake to have a little chat about his show right before the season hits its finale. ![]() However, when it does return, the passengers have not aged a day and are now hearing voices in their heads, they refer to as "Callings". Starring Josh Dallas as Ben Stone, Melissa Roxburgh as Michaela Stone, Athena Karkanis as Grace, and Jack Messina as Cal, the show has a massive fan following for its gripping mystery about a plane which went missing for almost five and a half years. His show on NBC has not only become a favorite among fans in the relatively short period of time it has been on, but the enthralling story has pulled in a pretty decent viewership for the network. Jeff Rake is as secretive a man as the mystery hovering in his record-breaking show, 'Manifest'.
