The pay cable network also announced that the five remaining episodes from Season 5, which were impacted by the coronavirus shutdown, will air next year. Stoll will become a full-time cast member in Season 6 after joining Billions in Season 5 as business titan and social impact pioneer Mike Prince, who poses a true threat to Axe’s dominance. "I think this show is so smart and the cast is so incredible," Stoll told EW earlier this year of joining Billions. "That’s the thing that’s been exciting to me from when it started. It feels like old home week when we do the table reads; it’s full of these great New York actors, and so it feels comfortable to do it with this group of people, a lot of whom come from theater. It’s been a very comfortable joining the cast in that sense. There were a couple opportunities to work on Billions through the years, and they didn’t really work out, based on scheduling and, frankly, I was holding out for something a little bit more exciting in terms of the role. (Laughs) And I’m really glad that I did, because this guy Mike Prince is so much fun to play and I think he brings a lot to the whole ensemble."
