OF ‘MANIFEST’ ON NBC
Did you have to refresh yourself on past
“Manifest” developments before you began
filming Season 3?
I still do! There’s so much information, in a great
way, because nothing is boring in any episode
this season. It does lend itself to needing to pay
attention or watching an episode again, but I’m
excited about all of the questions from Season
2 being answered in Season 3. Jeff (Rake, the
creator and an executive producer of the show)
has a great way of tying things together.
Have you had any concerns about viewers
following “Manifest” from its former
Monday slot to Thursdays?
I’m not particularly worried about it, because
the shows I watch, I watch when I want to watch
them. And with so many people working from
home, it’s not too hard to do that these days.
How do you view your “Manifest” arc as police detective and vanished-airplane
returnee Michaela?
I think that if it was real life, I’d be exhausted by now. In Season 1, she was a very broken
character. By Season 3, she’s learned how to juggle things a bit better. I think it has less to do with
her own personal demons and more with being able to extend to other people now, so it takes
some of the pressure off.
How do you feel about getting on airplanes now?
I think that’s everyone’s question now, and it’s a big, fat one for us with the mystery on the show. I
think it’s OK, given all the COVID-related considerations. I almost got kicked off an airplane once;
the crew recognized me and said, “We don’t want this plane disappearing!”
