When is the Billions season 7 release date? Billions focuses on financial crimes loosely based on real-life events. Fans have enjoyed watching Paul Giamatti star as Chuck Rhoades, a U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York who originally spent his time hunting down corrupt hedge fund king Bobby Axelrod in a game of cat and mouse.
The high-stakes Billions is one of the best drama series because it has evolved so much since its 2016 debut, and the TV series’ seventh season is the latest feather in its cap. Cast members have come and gone, crimes have been committed, and characters have been through the wringer.
As Damian Lewis departed the show in season 5 and Corey Stoll’s Michael Prince stepped up as the next adversary for Chuck, there was a lot to unpack when the Billions season 7 release date arrived. Here’s everything you need to know about one of Showtime’s best TV series, including the return of a fan-favorite character.

Decider‘s Johnny Loftus recommended the seventh season, writing “Billions pushes into its seventh and final season with as much quippy verve as ever, a fleet of existing grudges, new and interesting allyships, and the welcome return of Damian Lewis as Bobby “Axe” Axelrod. Let the demons run free.”

What is Billions season 7 about?
With Michael Prince taking center stage as the main antagonist for Chuck in season 6, Billions’ season 7 plot revolves around the escalating conflict between the pair.

In the premiere episode, “I really need his counsel,” she says. “On how to at least direct Prince to not, like, end the fucking universe.”
