Hide AdDan Soder said: “Yes, season seven, the final series of Billions is on its way. Am I not supposed to say that? I think so. It’s the final season. I’ll be around a little bit. I’m back.”
Upon realising what he had said, the actor was left panicked and red faced, as host Mike Berman replied: “It does not matter, you just said it.”
It comes after it was revealed that British actor, Damian Lewis, will reprise his role as Bobby Axelrod for 12 more episodes. Lewis left the Sky Atlantic show after season five following the death of his wife Helen McCrory to cancer aged 52 in 2021 and is reported to have wanted to stay closer to his family in the UK.
A release date for the seventh and final season of Billions is yet to be confirmed.
