Frank wins back Claire's support by promising not to sabotage her campaign in Texas, but he later publicly endorses Celia in his State of the Union address. Frank and Claire travel to South Carolina for a primary, but a series of scandals causes Frank to narrowly lose the state to Dunbar. Frank discovers that Claire had been leaking information to Dunbar, and she threatens to continue unless he names her as his running mate. Throughout the season, a writer named Thomas Yates is hired by Frank to write a biography for the purpose of promoting America Works. Yates, a fiction writer with a dark past of his own, decides to put a different spin on the book and writes less about Frank and more about his marriage with Claire.

House of Cards season 4

Much like in the previous trailer (immediately below), the tone of the Claire Underwood presidency is prevalent. While it goes without saying that she and her (late) husband, Frank, have left a long trail of blood and personal destruction during their amoral rise, we see the now-president, Claire, trying to obscure those sins behind the façade of feminism. However, it appears that the Underwood chickens will most likely come home to roost in an epic way in this final season. Nine weeks after the unresolved election, the Twelfth Amendment is invoked, with the vote being put up to members of Congress. During a meeting with the Congressional Black Caucus, cracks begin to appear in Conway's façade as he loses his cool. In spite of this, Frank's own baggage and 12% approval rating only allows him a tie with Conway in the House, while Claire manages to secure the Senate vote, becoming Acting President of the United States.

Grayson recently appeared in the HBO series The Outsider, portraying the role of Andy Katcavage. Her next big feature role will be alongside Benedict Cumberbatch in the Cold-War drama Ironbark. Also returning is Jayne Atkinson as the Underwood’s eternally tormented (former) Secretary of State, Catherine Durant. Robin Wright plays the role of Claire Underwood, Frank's equally ruthless and ambitious wife, who is just as calculating as he is.

As Durant's testimony proves more threatening, Claire and Jane Davis plot to assassinate her, but she fakes her death and flees the country. Following this, Claire disappears for three weeks, prompting questions of her ability to lead, and leading Usher to plan to use the 25th Amendment to remove her from office. Claire foils Usher's plan and fires her Cabinet, replacing it with an all-female Cabinet, much to Annette's surprise.

Annette plans to use Claire's prior abortions against her, but Claire retaliates by revealing to Duncan he is not Annette's biological son.

Without getting into spoilers, the presence of Simon Strong and Alys Rivers, in particular, point to a sequence of events from the source material that unfolds at Harrenhal. There's a reason Prince Daemon (Matt Smith) made mention of Harrenhal when poring over the painted table at Queen Rhaenyra's (Emma D'Arcy) war council in the season 1 finale.

“Coming-out stories should not be used to deflect from allegations of sexual assault,” GLAAD president and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis said. Michael Kelly takes on the role of Doug Stamper, Frank's loyal and secretive chief of staff, who is willing to do whatever it takes to protect his boss's interests. A drama about a ruthless congressman and his equally ambitious wife who navigate the corridors of power in Washington, D.C. Four months after the murders, Claire reverts to her maiden name and continues her progressive agenda.

Eventually, this and other leaks from his campaign are slowly dripped to the media in a manner that seems unconnected to the Underwoods. Seeing that his candidate is losing, Conway's campaign manager, Mark Usher, switches sides to the Underwoods. The Underwood ticket wins both Ohio and Tennessee, and Frank is sworn in as president and Claire as vice president. Frank and Claire allow the kidnappers to speak to the deposed leader of ICO, Yusuf al Ahmadi, after successfully obtaining the release of two of the hostages. Instead of defusing the situation as he agreed, al Ahmadi urges the kidnappers to kill the remaining hostage and broadcast the killing to the public.

Another new addition to the Underwood’s political fold, who forges a strong bond with Claire. His best and most well-known roles include American Beauty, Se7en and The Usual Suspects. Jacob joined What's on Netflix in 2018 as a fulltime writer having worked in numerous other industries until that point. Jacob covers all things Netflix whether that's TV or movies but specializes in covering new anime and K-dramas.

This connection will likely prove useful to the Shepherds, but it’s only a matter of time before they get on Claire’s bad side and everything blows up in their faces. Netflix has released new photos and some additional character information for Season 6, giving fans a clearer picture of how the Netflix series will move forward amid Kevin Spacey’s absence. Most notably, Greg Kinnear, Diane Lane, and Cody Fern will be playing members of an influential political family, the Shepherds, whose presence threatens Claire Underwood’s (Robin Wright) already-tenuous presidency. The fifth and sixth episodes of this season marked the final directing work of Joel Schumacher. Appearing 50 episodes across 4 seasons, it’s surprising Derek Cecil’s character Seth Grayson lived till the end. Knowing a very intimate amount of knowledge about the Underwood’s thanks to acquiring Frank’s journal, he used the information to force his way onto the Underwood’s staff as Director Of Communications and Press Secretary.

As a result, the season was reduced to eight episodes, deviating from the 13-episode format of the previous seasons. When production on House of Cards‘ sixth and final season was halted after sexual assault allegations against star Kevin Spacey became public, it was an emotional time for the cast and crew, they told The Hollywood Reporter on the red carpet at the season’s premiere. Luckily, you're in the right place, because I have put together an extensive list of the most memorable actors and actresses from House of Cards and what they're doing right now.

Meanwhile, Jane Davis, a low-ranking Commerce Department official who has a wide-ranging network of connections and influence, begins working closely with the Underwoods. As a private citizen for the time being, Frank attends a meeting of powerful men at a secret society known as Elysian Fields, in an effort to secure their influence for votes in the upcoming special election. Meanwhile, Conway has a mental breakdown on his private plane due to feeling that the election was stolen from him.
