This will be a season of eight episodes which will go into production in early 2018, and Kevin Spacey will not be involved. This will be with Robin Wright.

Kevin Spacey goes hand

Production was halted at the end of October in response to accusations against Kevin Spacey, will so well early 2018. But the great unknown remains : what will be the scenario of Frank Underwood ? Or even how the series will put in scene the transition between the two characters ?

First elements of response, with the announcement of a Kevin Spacey totally absent from the season. You admit that it is quite curious to know what the production is going to so get us out of his hat, even if the conclusion of the fifth season, where the character of Claire is accessing the light and power, announced clearly in that direction. Maybe Christopher Plummer ? In the meantime, good luck to the amazing Robin Wright, who must have a lot of pressure on the shoulders.
