Jack Messina Not to Return For Season 4 of Manifest

While fans of Manifest continue to rejoice in knowing that their efforts in getting their show picked up for a 4^th season were successful, it has been solemnly revealed that Jack Messina will not be returning as a regular for the season.Messinna who portrayed the character of Cal Stone,son of Grace and Ben Stone, was an integral part of the show from it’s inaugural season.His character was constantly seen at the centre of the callings which many of the returnees from flight 828 experienced,including his calling which led to the discovery of Zeke.

As season 3 concluded, viewers discovered that Cal had returned and aged 5 years after disappearing from touching the tailfin of flight 828.Why this happened and where Cal disappeared to will likely be a central focus of the coming season.Indeed,this could potentially lead to discovering where flight 828 went for the 5.5 years it disappeared. Actor Ty Doran will now portray the teenage character of Cal and viewers had a glimpse of him in the season 3 finale while he was beside his mother,Grace as she passed away after being attached by Angelina.

However,there is no resentment from Messina and the talented young actor took to social media to wish his former fellow cast members all the best for season 4.He also thanked creator Jeff Rake for the opportunity and was reportedly proactive in efforts to help revive the show after NBC cancelled it last spring.

I want to wish @jeff_rake and everyone at #manifest the best of luck on season 4,” he wrote in the caption.
