The show’s next season will start production in the summer of 2015 and will be aired sometime 2016, although no definite premiere date has been set. “House of Cards” will see the return of Golden Globe 2015 Best Actor winner Kevin Spacey who will reprise his role as Mr. Underwood, U.S. president, and his wife, Claire Underwood, played by Robin Wright.
A New York Times report describes Kevin Spacey’s character as a “ruthless Washington politician.” He is a Democrat from South Carolina who initiates an elaborate plan to get himself into the highest position of power in the country, with the help of his wife, Mrs. Underwood. Season 3 ended with Underwood seeking re-election and it seems that in Season 4, he had won the election.
The series is based on a BBC drama series of the same title. The Netflix original series is an online-only web television series, making the episodes of the season available for multiple viewings. It is also one of the online-only web TV series that has been recognized by award bodies like the Golden Globe and the Emmys. In 2013, it garnered three Emmy awards including Outstanding Director for David Fincher. Robin Wright won the Best Actress award in the 2014 Golden Globes. The next year was Kevin Spacey’s turn, when he won Best Actor in the 2015 Golden Globes.
A VCPost report speculated on the possible plot for the upcoming season. Aside from looking at the Underwoods in the White House, it will also likely focus on Doug Stamper’s decision in an earlier season to kill Rachel Posner after she attempted to kill him and also because she was privy to the president’s secrets.
