'House of Cards' Season 3: Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright Talk Plot and Characters
The much anticipated third season of the hit political drama series "House of Cards" is currently and exclusively available for streaming on Netflix.
While all 13 episodes are already there for the streaming service's subscribers, some of the show's fans might still be hankering for any information about the show. Here's what two of the primary characters of HoC has to say about the recent chapter.
Kevin Spacey pointed out the plight of his character, U.S. President Frank Underwood.
"The third season explores what happens to these people when they suddenly are in the hot, white spotlight of being president and first lady," he told Reuters. "That's a very interesting dynamic to start to investigate."
Spoiler alert for those who still weren't able to finish the whole season: it was indicated that just like the first two seasons, Season 3 saw the powerful couple trying all their best to maintain their power and influence while being threatened with the consequences of their actions.
Meanwhile, co-star Robin Wright was able to get the chance to direct an episode of the current series.
The actress, who plays the first lady Claire Underwood, revealed how she appreciates the whole HoC family for their help in her directorial gig.
"I couldn't have been in a better home. I had a family. I had people that cared. You know, I'm a novice," she said. "Obviously I'd been watching for almost 30 years in the industry, I couldn't say I had no idea what I was doing, but to actually be deposited in the director's chair and collaborating with the different departments, that was the most treasured time."
She went on to dish out some bits of information concerning her character by saying that fans will see a "more sensitive, vulnerable and raw side" of Claire opposite to what she was in the later episodes.
