Season five which ended with Frank Underwood played by Kevin Spacey stepping down as President was followed by the streaming giant firing Spacey after numerous sexual allegations were made against the actor.
Back in May Wright, who will take over as the new commander-in-chief shared a promo image on social media in celebration of the production wrapping on the final season. She wrote, “As of last Friday, we finished filming the final season of @houseofcards. Working with our cast and crew has been an absolute joy. We became a family and I will miss you all and the nonstop laughs! Thank you @netflix & MRC for all of your support through the years!!”
The final season will feature Wright’s character, Claire Underwood as POTUS. Just last month Cindy Holland, Netflix’s Vice President of Original Series said of HOC’s final season that she was “proud” of what the cast and crew had accomplished despite the firing of the series’ lead. ”It’s a fitting end. We had always planned for season six to be the final season,” she said. “I’m very proud of what Robin [Wright did].”
