“Billions” Is Back In August for One Last Season That Sees the Return of Bobby Axelrod (Damian Lewis)

Share

“Billions” is coming back for one final season on August 11th. The show returns on that date on Paramount Plus and two nights later on Showtime.

Damian Lewis comes back as Bobby Axelrod. Lewis left two seasons ago when his actress wife, Helen McCrory, was ill with cancer. She eventually, sadly, passed. Since then Lewis has released an album of songs he wrote and plays guitar on.

How Bobby could be back is a good question. He fled the US rather than be prosecuted for his financial crimes. Both Lewis and Paul Giamatti should have gotten Emmys for every season but Showtime — which is about to expire — did little for this series.

Welcome back, “Billions”!
