Photo: Elizaveta Porodina I’ve barely spent five minutes with Asia Kate Dillon when I make the precise mistake I was trying to avoid. We’re talking about their dog, a 20-pound poodle-beagle-terrier mix named Herbert, when I tentatively ask where the actor adopted him.
Dillon, 34, may be somewhat of a visual anomaly in the alpha-male worlds they inhabit onscreen, but here in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, they blend right in. When we meet for lunch at a local hipster-friendly Chinese restaurant the week before the premiere for John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum, Dillon is wearing the quintessential casual uniform for young Brooklynites, regardless of gender: all-black jeans, T-shirt, and sneakers, paired with an oversize denim jacket and a WNYC tote.

Billions was always brash, devious fun — the story of a high-stakes power struggle between hedge-fund-manager Bobby “Axe” Axelrod and U.S. Attorney Chuck Rhoades — but it was the introduction of Taylor in season two that elevated it beyond your dick-swinging Wall Street drama. Taylor starts off as a hedge fund intern who’s so uneasy with the hedonism of the financial world and the implications of their work that they don’t want to take a private jet because of the carbon footprint.
