Netflix has officially announced the return date for its popular series, 'House of Cards'. The announcement initially came in the form of a tweet from the show's Twitter account stating, "A special message from the White House," with a short video promo displaying the date of the new season, February 27^th.

The show will be stretching into it's third season which has a lot of fans worried if its the last that the show will see, as the BBC series that 'House of Cards' is based off of only ran for three seasons.

Kevin Spacey, the actor who plays the main character, Frank Underwood, suggested that he didn't believe the show would follow that pattern. Enstars reported the actor's response to the speculation in an interview:

"When Spacey was asked how long the show might last for, he suggested he had 'no idea' while saying that he was "enjoying it very much."

He went on to add that considering the audiences were also thoroughly enjoying it, meant it would enjoy a long life. "It seems that audiences are as well, so you know, I see no reason why it can't go on for a while," he said.

In the original series, Frank's wife, Claire Underwood was the character's bane. If this isn't the route they take this time, the show will ultimately have to go it's own way this season.

It is still unclear on what premise the show will take this season, but there have been talks on Frank tackling foreign affairs in his new position of power, particularly Russia.

On that note, Polish filmmaker, Agnieszka Holland had this to say after guest directing Season 3:

"Without telling you what happens, once Frank Underwood becomes president, suddenly he faces different responsibilities and international situations, and I think there are some similarities to what's going on now. Because I have knowledge of international politics, know more about the Russians and what they do, I can bring that to the show."
