Manifest creator Jeff Rake has confirmed that Matt Long's Ezekiel 'Zeke' Landon will be back for season 4.

After being initially axed by NBC, the supernatural drama was revived by Netflix earlier this year and now has cameras rolling on a final 20 episodes.

Over at TVLine, Rake was asked by a fan if Long will be reprising his character, which he was "delighted to report" was the case, "allowing Zeke to complete his Manifest journey just as originally intended".

Meanwhile, Detective Jared Vasquez actor JR Ramirez took his Instagram followers behind the scenes on the new episodes recently with a series of photos and shared an impassioned thank you to all of the cast and crew, as well as fans of the show.

"I've been working in this business for almost two decades now and I know to land a team of cast [and] crew that is as collaborative, dedicated and in my opinion (most importantly) 'ego checked' as these beautifully talented humans are… well it RARELY happens.

"With all that being said. It's only day one and you can already feel the level of appreciation this group has for the magical ride that is Manifest! But let's keep it real... The reality is ALL of this magic is happening because of YOU guys! You guys made this happen! We Love You. Can't wait for you to see how it all comes together..."

The story itself centres on the passengers and flight crew of a commercial airliner who suddenly reappear after being missing for more than five years in mysterious circumstances.

Manifest seasons 1-3 are streaming on Netflix, with a fourth and final one expected next year.
