Netflix has ordered a science fiction spin-off to the series ‘Manifest’ titled ‘Arrivals: A New Manifest Mystery’. Produced by Warner Bros. Television, the series will feature a new cast and storyline involving a mysterious plane crash-landing in Denver, where passengers emerge with no memory of their identities.

The project will reunite the original creative team, including creator and showrunner Jeff Rake, alongside co-creators Margaret Easley and Laura Putney. Executive producers for the project include Robert Zemeckis and Jack Rapke of Compari Entertainment.

The plot follows a young social worker and a Homeland Security agent who team up with the passengers to investigate the incident and prevent a potential catastrophe. While the series is in development, no official release date has been confirmed. The announcement follows the success of the original series, which has garnered over 130 million views on Netflix since early 2023.
