Showtime is looking to expand the Billions universe through a multitude of spinoff series, including two series titled Millions and Trillions. Billions is currently the most senior drama program running on Showtime, with season 7 of the finance-based drama set to air sometime in the future. While season 1 through season 5 focused on U.S. Attorney Chuck Rhoades' legal feuds with billionaire hedge fund manager Bobby "Axe" Axelrod, season 6 saw newcomer Michael Prince become Rhoades' new enemy. The series has received praise for Paul Giamatti, Damien Lewis, and Corey Stoll's performances, as well as queer representation through Asia Kate Dillion's non-binary character Taylor Mason.

According to The Wall Street Journal, Showtime has plans to expand the Billions franchise with multiple upcoming spinoff shows, including Millions and Trillions. While specific details of each show are unknown, Millions will follow young, up-and-coming financiers, while Trillions will focus on the richest people in the world.
