Melissa Roxburgh might have just revealed a big secret about creator Jeff Rake's show 'Manifest'. As the show follows the events which take place after the return of Montego Air Flight 828, which went missing for five years, the passengers of the flight begin to hear strange voices and see visions which they do not understand. In order to understand what actually happened to them inside the plane, Ben (played by Josh Dallas) and Saanvi (played by Parveen Kaur) have been collecting data. However, Ben's sister Michaela (played by Roxburgh) has been following the voices that have been leading her to several successful missions.
