Shot on-location in New Orleans, the series costars Zachary Momoh (The Nevers, Harriet, Doctor Sleep) as The Horse, a New Orleans-based Zimbabwean gangster ; SAG® Award nominee Paula Malcomson (Watchmen, The Hunger Games, Ray Donovan) as Rose, Parish’s wife and mother to his two children; Skeet Ulrich (Scream, Riverdale) as Colin, an old acquaintance to Gray; Bonnie Mbuili (Invictus, Wallander) as Shamiso Tongai, The Horse’s smart and protective older sister; Ivan Mbakop (Hawkeye, Red Notice) as Zenzo, The Horse’s brother; Arica Himmel (Mixed-ish, Black-ish) as Makayla, Gray and Rose’s daughter; and Dax Rey (The Good Fight, Chicago Fire) as Luke, The Horse’s son.
Emmy®, SAG® and Critics Choice® Award winner Bradley Whitford (The West Wing, Get Out, The Handmaid’s Tale) recurs in the series as Anton, the charming and intelligent face of industrial business in Louisiana, who covertly heads a criminal organization.
