Damian Lewis and Paul Giamatti Give Us 2 Reasons to Watch 'Billions'
There are already two great reasons to watch Billions — specifically the leading men, Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis. But a new teaser trailer for the series, which will premiere on Showtime in early 2016, gives us a billion more reasons to be excited for this financial world drama. Those reasons include timely subject matter, beautiful New York cinematography, and glimpses at a supporting cast that includes Malin Akerman and Maggie Siff. Oh yeah, and it also boasts one of the best lines of dialogue we’ve heard all year. Toward the end of the trailer, Lewis says, “What’s the point of having f–k you money if you never say ‘F–k you’?” (Did we mention that the trailer is most definitely NSFW?)
Billions stars Giamatti as an ambitious U.S. Attorney who makes it his personal mission to bring down Lewis’s business magnate, Bobby Axelrod. It’s an admirable goal, but also a foolhardy one as Axelrod has friends in high places and a general disregard for government. If a mere minute of watching these two Emmy-winning acting titans go toe-to-toe is this much fun, just imagine how great 12 one-hour episodes will be.
Billions will premiere on Showtime in early 2016.
