Exclusive: J.R. Ramirez discusses the impact of Manifest, Jared's arc, and helps break down the series finale

Silence on Set

J.R. Ramirez came on to discuss the finale ten episodes of the fan-beloved series, Manifest. Ramirez, who plays Jared, was excited to talk about the show but said it was bittersweet to say goodbye to some of his closest friends. We spoke about how his character has changed over the seasons, how grateful he was to be a part of something so massive, and his love for all of his castmates. We eventually get into the nitty-gritty of the final few episodes, including one of the most epic finales to hit Netflix in a long time. While we got emotional about saying goodbye, Ramirez kept smiling like a sunbeam. His performance is outstanding. He is honestly one of the kindest people. He is authentic, honest, caring, and funny. We also discussed if he was happy with the ending, precisely those last few scenes. It was a true joy.

Synopsis:

The crew and passengers were relieved when Montego Air Flight 828 landed safely after a turbulent but routine flight. But in those few hours, the world had aged five years -- and after mourning their loss, their friends, families, and colleagues had given up hope and moved on. Now, faced with the impossible, they're all given a second chance. But as their new realities become clear, a deeper mystery unfolds, and some of the returned passengers soon realize they may be meant for something greater than they ever thought possible.

**Manifest is available to stream in full on Netflix.
