It looks to me like hes jumping out the window. The majority of the light would be from behind him but you have it coming from his side. You need to have strong sharp warm light behind him and soft cool ambient light in front

You're on the right track, though yeah the light will be coming from behind him kind of hitting the edges of his form, and the light hitting him will look a lot sharper/brighter while the shadows will use the cooler lighting you've got in the rest of the piece (love the city in the background btw, good use of atmospheric perspective)

Don't be afraid of hard light/shadow edges either, especially in dramatic lighting like this

It's not perfect, but when in doubt, light travels in a straight line, so pretend something's a cube (or a bunch of cubes idk) and think about how light would hit it/not hit it
