Wolves Of Wall Street

Axe and chuck forge an uneasy alliance to bring down their rivals in Billions…

- Ian Macewan

The ruthless world of hedge funds and high finance returns to our screens this week with the fourth season of US drama, Billions.

We left off with sworn enemies Chuck Rhoades (Paul Giamatti) and Bobby ‘Axe’ Axelrod (Damian Lewis) both in deep trouble.

While Chuck was fired from his job as US Attorney, arrogant hedge-fund manager Axe was furious at the decision of Taylor Mason (Asia Kate Dillon) to leave Axe Capital to set up a rival fund.

‘Axe is increasingly paranoid,’ says Lewis. ‘For him, Taylor going is like one of his chicks leaving the coop. You bring them up, nurture them and then they fly away. Axe is infuriated someone could do that.’

UNLIKELY ALLIANCE
