Damian Lewis opens London Stock Market to mark the release of Billions on Sky Atlantic

Wednesday 11th May 2016. Today Damian Lewis opened the UK stock market at the London Stock Exchange to mark the premiere of financial drama Billions, which airs exclusively on Sky Atlantic and Sky Box Sets from Thursday 12 May. 

Set in the ego-driven world of New York high finance, Lewis plays billionaire hedge fund kingpin Bobby ‘Axe’ Axelrod and stars alongside Paul  Giamatti, who plays Chuck Rhoades the tenacious, ferociously smart U.S. attorney who tries to take down Bobby.

Zai Bennett, Director of Sky Atlantic commented on the release: “Billions is the ultimate Wall Street power battle. And just like Bobby, who loves getting what he wants when he wants it, Sky customers will be able to binge on Billions to their hearts’ content as we’ll be releasing the entire box set in one go.”
