‘House of Cards’ teases final season with Oscars ad

Netflix

TV viewers got a taste of what to expect with the last season of “House of Cards” thanks to a new 30-second teaser aired during the Academy Awards on Sunday.

The clip tracks through the inside of a bustling White House before focusing on Robin Wright as Claire Underwood in the Oval Office.

“We’re just getting started,” she says. The screen then reads “Hail to the Chief.”

{mosads}The Emmy Award-winning Netflix show is returning for its sixth and final season this fall after star Kevin Spacey was forced to leave the show following allegations of sexual misconduct. 

Spacey was accused by actor Anthony Rapp of making sexual advances against him when Rapp was 14 years old. Spacey apologized and said he was “beyond horrified” to hear the account.

Eight other people who worked for “House of Cards” also accused Spacey of sexual assault and harassment, calling it a “toxic” work environment.

Wright will be the show’s star in Spacey’s absence.
