Manifest may be resurrected for a fourth season as both NBC AND Netflix resume talks with Warner Bros. TV

Just over a month after NBC canceled Manifest and Netflix passed on reviving the show, a fourth season may actually happen.

The series, which stars Melissa Roxburgh and Josh Dallas, was canceled on June 14, just four days after the Season 3 finale aired, with Netflix passing on reviving the show just a week later.

Now the tables have seemingly turned in Manifest's favor, with both NBC AND Netflix both in talks with Manifest producer Warner Bros. Television, via Deadline.

NBC's reinvigorated interest in the show comes as fans have launched a #SaveManifest campaign on social media, but also as the network has faced a sudden deficiency in their lineup.

The network's planned Season 5 renewal of their hit drama series Good Girls fell through at the last moment due to cast issues, with the network revealing officially on June 25 that the show won't be back.

Their planned Law & Order spin-off Law & Order: For the Defense was also taken off the fall schedule last week, with the show not moving forward at all.

With these two new holes in their schedule (and freed up money in their budget), NBC is believed to have reinstated renewal talks.

Of the network's four 'bubble' shows - along with Good Girls, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist and Debris, which were all canceled - Manifest had by far the highest ratings, particularly in total viewers.

At the same time, viewership of the first two seasons on Netflix have surged, with the show holding fast in the streaming service's daily top 10 for a month, while also topping the Nielsen streaming ratings.

Still, nothing is official yet, and there may be complications for Netflix, which typically acquires global rights to their shows, and Manifest has already been sold internationally, market-by-market.

It's worth noting that Warner Bros. TV did manage to avoid these issues to resurrect Lucifer on Netflix from Fox, so there is said to be a 'path' to a deal happening.

Manifest was created by Jeff Rake (The Mysteries of Laura), following an airplane that went missing for five years which suddenly returns with all of its passengers intact.

Rake has said to have a six-year plan for the show, which was ended abruptly when NBC canceled the show half-way through.

The creator has been keeping his fans apprised with cryptic updates, the latest of which indicated the fan-led #SaveManifest would be directly responsible for a fourth season.

Rake tweeted, 'I'm not giving up. Keep the faith #SaveManifest' on July 14, and on Tuesday, when reports of Manifest returning first surfaced, he said, 'Lots of speculation out there. No comment. Other than, if the impossible happens and the dead rise again, it’s because of YOU. #SaveManifest'
