Damian Lewis is set to return for season 7 of ‘Billions’ after exiting the show in season 5.

Lewis, who will return for 6 of the 12-episode series, is back as Bobby “Axe” Axelrod opposite Paul Giamatti, Corey Stoll and Maggie Siff. The show is currently in production in New York.

Lewis left the show after the death of his wife and actress Helen McCrory.

In season seven, alliances are turned on their heads. Old wounds are weaponized. Loyalties are tested. Betrayal takes on epic proportions. Enemies become wary friends. And Bobby Axelrod returns, as the stakes grow from Wall Street to the world.
