Netflix Renews ‘House of Cards’ For Another Season

Date:

Netflix has renewed their Baltimore filmed hit drama House of Cards for a fifth season.

But there will be a change behind the scenes as the show’s creator and showrunner Beau Willimon will be leaving.

House of Cards season 4 hits Netflix on March 4th and stars Kevin Spacey. It is also reported that Kevin Spacey will be returning for season five.

“Netflix and MRC owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to Beau Willimon for his strong narrative vision for ‘House of Cards‘ over the show’s first four seasons. As an Academy Award nominated writer, he made his first foray into television and built a riveting and critically acclaimed series, establishing his place in TV history. The producers, cast and crew join us in wishing Beau the best in his next creative adventure,” Netflix said in a statement.

 Willimon said he decided it was time to “move on” after spending five years working on the streaming series.
“I’m grateful to Netflix and MRC, my fellow executive producers, our two incandescent stars Kevin Spacey and Robin Wright, our talented writers, as well as the incredible cast and crew with whom I’ve had the privilege to work,” he said. “After five years and four seasons, it’s time for me to move on to new endeavors, but I’m supremely proud of what we’ve built together, wish the show much continued success, and leave it in the hands of a very capable team.”

The 2013 debut of House of Cards helped made Netflix one of the most successful media companies. Now, the streaming series is dedicated to spending billions upon billions of dollars to generate new and original content world wide.
Kevin Spacey is currently filming his new movie, Baby Driver, in Atlanta, Georgia alongside Jamie Foxx and Jon Hamm.
