Kevin Spacey talks House of Cards Season 3



Congratulations on winning the Best Actor Golden Globe for your role as Frank Underwood in the Netflix’s drama House of Cards. It was a case of eighth time lucky after seven nominations; did you expect to miss out again?

[Laughs] Absolutely. Especially after The Affair won best series I thought oh well, it's not my year. So yes, I was very surprised.

What can you tell me about the upcoming series of House of Cards which start towards the end of February?

I can tell you that I hope you’ll enjoy it very much when you tune in.

Any spoilers, teasers, snippets you can reveal?

Well, I can reveal that there will be many scenes and some of those scenes will take place in The White House. There’s your headline right there (laughs).

How long have you signed up for?

As long as they want to keep doing it and I’m having great a time doing it. We’ll just continue to tell the story as long as we feel there’s a story worth telling.
