Facts About Some Main Lead Actors
Besides having a robust script, there are actors who with their performances and portrayal of their characters make the show lively and interesting to watch. Manifest comprises a good cast of actors in the lead and supporting. So allow me to have a glimpse of some of the leading actors beginning with the main lead:
Melissa Roxburgh
Melissa is the main star cast of the television series Manifest. She plays the detective in this supernatural-drama series. Melissa was also one of the passengers in the Montego Air Flight.

Currently, she is seen in the Manifest television series playing the role of Michaela Stone. Before Manifest, Melissa had appeared in other television series like Supernatural, Sorority Murder, and Travelers.
Parveen Kaur
Her name might make you believe that she belongs from India and is a Punjabi as per her name. But let me correct you, she hails from Canada and is into the profession of acting. She plays the character of Saanvi in the supernatural drama Manifest.
But other than the latter television series, Parveen was also seen in Beyond, where she played the character of Christine. She is a fitness freak and does yogic exercises and practice meditation. Other than Manifest, she has played other characters in the movies like The Strain (horror), Through Black Spruce, and a short film, Worst Part.
Luna Blaise
Luna is also one of the leading star cast of the supernatural drama. She is an American actress and singer. Other than her current role as Olive Stone in her latest television series, she has previously appeared in Fresh Off The Boat. Luna also did a brief appearance in a short film in 2008, and an Indie art film in 2013.
Matt Long
Matt is another American actor who plays the character of a trapped hiker in a cave in Manifest. He has previously acted in other television series Jack & Bobby, The Deep End, Mad Men, Private Practice, and Lucky 7. Matt also did films like Sydney White and Ghost Rider.
When Can We Expect Manifest Season 3?
Season 2 of Manifest series was aired on NBC last year (2020). It ended with its thirteenth last episode in April. It had an average rating with a viewership of 7.7 million. Overall it made a good appeal among the adults. On seeing the good response, NBC came up with the next renewal of the third season in 2020. But till yet the date of its release is not confirmed. However, the premiere is expected to hit the screens in the present year.
Will There Be Any New Cast?
At the end of the second season, it showed Matt’s character (Zeke) almost on the verge of his end, but surprisingly he gets revived, which indicates his comeback in the third season. It also showed the murder of Major committed by the medical researcher Saanvi. Now, it is possible to expect that Parveen would also be returning with her essayed character, but the role of Elizabeth seems to be over with the death of her character in Manifest. Similarly, the other actors who played the characters in the previous seasons would be returning in season 3. So there is no news of any new joiners.
