Damian Lewis will return as the character Billions.
The epilogue of season 5, titled No Way Home, sees Lewis’ Axelrod on the run from law enforcement once again. In the end, he disappeared in a cloak and dagger with his fortune and fled to Switzerland to avoid punishment in New York. The epilogue signals Lewis’ departure from the show, but it also leaves open the possibility of him returning to the series at some point in the future. His passing in 2021 comes shortly after his wife, actress Helen McCrory, died that same year.
Speaking of his departure, the performer said that his five-season tenure as Ax was:
“This is the time I spent the most time playing a character. It’s hard to keep digging, artistically… There’s a chance I’ll be able to come back. But for now, Ax has been defeated.”
Season 6 premiered last winter and will conclude with its finale on April 10, 2022. The sitcom will return for a seventh season, with Lewis reprising the role of Ax. Billions is currently in production in New York, and Lewis’ return was revealed last November when he was observed filming with his co-stars outside the Tower of London.
