SK Global has acquired the rights to Dean Koontz’s latest series of 12 short thrillers for series development with Snake Eyes’ Henry Golding set to star.

The series follow Nameless, a man who – behind a wall of amnesia – can’t remember anything. Maybe he can’t bear to. He knows only the mission, assigned by a shadowy agency, and travels the country turning predators into prey and dispensing justice when the law fails. As he moves from town to town, the pain of his past can’t hold him back, until dark and splintered visions lead him toward his greatest test yet.

The Nameless series, published by Amazon Original Stories, held all top 12 positions on the Kindle Singles Best Seller list during the month after the final story was published in June 2021.

Henry Golding states, “I’ve long been fascinated by the idea of telling a mystery thriller in an episodic format. But to work with the master of suspense thrillers – Dean Koontz’s Nameless is beyond my expectations. To bring this exceptional series to the screen with my partners SK Global and Mazur Kaplan will be an exhilarating journey as we look to bring a fresh and unique take on Dean’s characters.”

Dean Koontz adds, “I’m delighted to have my material in the hands of such dedicated and accomplished producers, and when I heard the name Henry Golding, I shouted, ‘YES!’ Mr. Golding will be perfect and unforgettable as Nameless.”

SK Global’s John Penotti, Charlie Corwin and Marcy Ross state, “Dean Koontz’s Nameless is one of those rare page-turning series that immediately hooks audiences and never lets up. The non-stop action and intrigue set a perfect stage for the type of global storytelling we strive for at SK Global, and we’re overjoyed for the opportunity to develop this series alongside our exceptional partners Henry Golding and Mazur Kaplan.”

The Mazur Kaplan Company co-founders Paula Mazur and Mitchell Kaplan add, “As a books-to-screen company, Mazur Kaplan is delighted about our continuing special relationship with SK Global and joining this collaboration with them and Henry Golding to create a unique, compelling man of mystery: Nameless, based on the superb Dean Koontz series.”
