Save the date: New series of Billions on Stan March 18

Stan has announced that the fourth season of the Showtime hit drama series Billions will premiere on Monday, March 18.

It is a show that Mediaweek editor James Manning has recommended every year among the programs of the year and it is our favourite US drama series.

The Billions cast includes Oscar nominee and Emmy and Golden Globe winner Paul Giamatti and Emmy and Golden Globe winner Damian Lewis.

While viewers wait for season 4, the first three seasons of Billions are available on Stan.

Season 4 plot outline

When everyone is out for revenge, no one is safe. This is never truer than in season four of Billions. Bobby Axelrod (Lewis) and Chuck Rhoades (Giamatti), former enemies, and Wendy Rhoades (Maggie Siff), the chief counsellor to each, have come together to form an uneasy but highly effective alliance, aimed at the eradication of all their rivals, including Grigor Andolov (guest star John Malkovich), Taylor Mason (Asia Kate Dillon), Brian Connerty (Toby Leonard Moore) and Waylon "Jock" Jeffcoat (guest star Clancy Brown).

Ambition and betrayal have long been at the heart of Billions, and this season all the characters find out exactly how high a price they'll have to pay to satisfy those needs. The series also stars David Costabile, Condola Rashad, Kelly AuCoin, Jeffrey DeMunn and Malin Akerman, along with new guest stars Samantha Mathis, Kevin Pollak, Jade Eshete and Nina Arianda.

Billions is created and executive produced by showrunners Brian Koppelman and David Levien. The series was also created by Andrew Ross Sorkin.

Seasons 1, 2 & 3 of Billions are currently streaming exclusively on Stan.
