With no new episodes on the horizon, the stars of the spooky thriller have taken to social media to express their feelings in emotional tweets. Josh Dallas, who played Ben Stone on the show, thanked “Manifesters” for their continuous support on Instagram.
Josh wrote, “Well, my badass #manifesters, I’m sorry to say that it’s the end of the line for now.” “We are so very proud to have brought you this story over 3 seasons. We so wished we could’ve finished the journey with you. But it wasn’t in the cards.”
Dallas went on to thank the producers, writers, his co-stars, and the fans “who embraced [Manifest] and these characters and flew with us on [Flight 828].”
