Set on the streets of Johannesburg, The Nowhere Man follows Lukas (Khoza), a former Special Forces mercenary haunted by PTSD who has traded combat for survival as a junk collector.

While Khoza anchors the series as its conflicted central figure, The Nowhere Man also marks a significant STARZ reunion for Naturi Naughton-Lewis. Her performances as Tasha St. Patrick across the Power universe helped define the network’s modern identity. In addition to starring in the series, Naughton-Lewis serves as an executive producer through her company, Take Two Entertainment.
