“Billions” returns for Season 2 on Feb. 19, but before it does, The Huffington Post has an exclusive first look at the newest teaser for the hit Showtime series starring Paul Giamatti and Damian Lewis.

“You have to be prepared to do things outside the bounds of conventional morality,” the trailer begins. 

Themes around morality drove much of the plot throughout Season 1, and fans can expect much of the same in the second season, along with a more in-depth look at the characters’ pasts.

“We take it for granted that our audience knows the characters now. So it gets deeper, you get to know about them, and when they interact it’s more explosive,” David Levien, “Billions” co-creator, told HuffPost. 

“Billions” Season 2 premieres Sunday, Feb. 19, at 10 p.m. ET. Check out the exclusive teaser above.
