Damian Lewis is one of the best actors of his generation. Everything he is in, he makes it infinitely better. Take a look at the shows he has left, they were bad without him. Homeland was worse without him, but was still ok with Claire Daines, but Billions was terrible without him. His acting and his character are the glue that held that terrific show together. After last season, I didn’t think we’d see another season. So I was shocked when I saw a trailer, I was like, how I’m the hell did showtime give this another season, then boom Damian Lewis shows up and I was instantly happy. Seems like a good dude in real life also, would be fun to have a couple drinks with.

God, I adore this mean. Wonderful actor and the end of Billions was wonderful. I felt awful for his loss. Helen was a lovely person and a phenomenal artist herself. Glad he and his children are doing well. I saw him in Band of Brothers and couldn't believe he was English. He nailed the American accent and part beautifully, and he was amazing in Homeland. And he is not hard on the eyes.

@@mkfd4571 in prior interviews before she passed on I recall Stephen always mentioning his wife and how fond he is of her....I think it's something they talked about backstage and that was that rather than exploit his bereavement on national tv for applause and sympathy....it always feels inauthentic in talk show setting especially when it's still very fresh and Damiens case he upended his career because of that.

If you want to see a different side of Damien Lewis then watch him in The Forsyte Saga on KZfaq......the series was made in 2002 and Damien Lewis plays a Victorian Gentleman who is obsessed about marrying a woman and won't let her leave.......I knew he was gonna to make it big after watching this series.......It's funny how his character comes off as a crazed and possessive husband and all I kept thinking was lucky woman to be obsessed by Damian Lewis.

I only "discovered" the series Billions and this talented British actor a couple months ago (too busy working for hedge fund clients)! He's nailed it in the character of Bobby Axelrod. It is so strange to hear Damian speak in his natural London/Welsh accent--rather than his Yonkers voice and rock star swagger. Damian is wonderful just being his self. LOVE that "Bobby's back!!" Damian doesn't age--which is amazing, considering what he's been through. Looking forward to watching the other dramatic productions Damian Lewis has been in...since somehow I've missed them all (so far...) Really want to see his rendition of Henry VIII (Damian is way to buff too pay that portly king!!) Very sorry for Damian and his two teen children for the loss of such a beautiful key soul and Mummy in their family--something one never gets over. You only learn to live with it...but maybe going back to work on his MUSIC and on the 7th season of Billions will provide some distraction from the pain of the loss and void...a tiny bit for a few of those moments...
