As announced by Showtime on Monday, Damian Lewis will return as Robert “Bobby” Axelrod for Season 7 of “Billions.” Though speculation had been rampant that Lewis would make a comeback after unauthorized production photos caught the actor on set, this is the first time the network has confirmed his return officially.
In their description for Season 7, Showtime teased that Bobby’s return comes as “enemies become wary friends” and “the stakes grow from Wall Street to the world.” It seems likely that to take down Mike Prince, Chuck Rhoades may just need to team up with his arch-nemesis. Whatever the case, Lewis is only confirmed to be returning for the second half of Season 7, meaning fans will have to wait just a little bit longer to see him back in action. “Billions” is widely expected to return sometime this year, though no official release date has been confirmed as of writing.
