No, I haven’t watched a single episode of “Billions” yet, but that’s entirely my fault. Heck, I only just got through the first season of “Halt And Catch Fire” so cut me some slack. In any event, Showtime‘s series is a critically acclaimed hit from two of our favorite writers and showrunners, Brian Koppelman and David Levien. So perhaps this season three trailer will finally be the kick in the pants I need to binge watch this show one cold, winter weekend.
Starring Paul Giamatti, Damian Lewis, Malin Akerman, Toby Leonard Moore, David Costabile, Condola Rashad, Asia Kate Dillon and Jeffrey DeMunn, the show details the ongoing battle between a federal prosecutor and financial mogul, with the next batch of episodes upping the ante. Here’s the official synopsis:
Season three of Billions finds Chuck Rhoades (Giamatti) and Bobby Axelrod (Lewis) in a world that has shifted on its axis. Both men are still determined to destroy the other, but must also battle for their own survival amid new forces and powerful enemies. Wendy Rhoades (Maggie Siff) Chuck’s wife and Axe’s performance coach, is all in for both of them, an uneasy and dangerous position for her, and one that ultimately puts her to a decision that could alter the direction of her life irrevocably. Money, power, justice and revenge are all on the line for each of these characters as well as for the rest of the stellar cast.
“Billions” returns on March 25th at 10 PM on Showtime.
