Showtime’s BILLIONS season 5 is now casting federal agents for a scene in New York City.

Casting directors are now casting actors, models, and talent to work on scenes filming from November 2019 through May 2020 in New York City.

Producers are seeking the following types:

  • GWC is seeking SAGAFTRA and NON-UNION for background work on SEASON 5 of the Showtime series BILLIONS!
  • -upscale types with business attire
  • -financial trader and portfolio manager types who have flexibility to commit to multiple dates throughout the season

About Billions:

 Wealth, influence, and corruption collide in this drama set in New York. Shrewd U.S. Attorney Chuck Rhoades is embroiled in a high-stakes game of predator vs. prey with Bobby Axelrod, an ambitious hedge-fund king. To date, Rhoades has never lost an insider trading case — he’s 81-0 — but when criminal evidence turns up against Axelrod, he proceeds cautiously in building the case against Axelrod, who employs Rhoades’ wife, psychiatrist Wendy, as a performance coach for his company. Wendy, who has been in her position longer than Chuck has been in his, refuses to give up her career for her husband’s legal crusade against Axelrod. Both men use their intelligence, power, and influence to outmaneuver the other in this battle over billions. The high-profile cast is led by Emmy winners Paul Giamatti (“John Adams”) and Damian Lewis (“Homeland”) as Chuck Rhoades and Bobby Axelrod, respectively.
