Realty Today sourced a Netflixlife.com report which suggested that while the next chapter will be out in 2016, there is no confirmation about the date. The report goes onto hint that we can't simply make an educated guess by analyzing the pattern of the release dates of the past three seasons, all of which were out in February with a difference of 14 to 15 days.
It is being speculated that this time around, the show's release might be changed to align with the Presidential elections. The prospect sure sounds exciting very exciting for fans as Frank (Kevin Spacey) fights for another term in office. It is a known fact that the Clintons have a strong association with the show, especially being friends with Spacey. The fact that Hillary Clinton is running for Democratic candidate will surely revv things up.
On May 5, a Venture Capital report speculated that the show might draw from aspects of the real elections.
Spacey, who is a good friend of the Clintons, has often brought up former president Bill Clinton when talking about the show, and even did a House of Cards parody, which featured Hillary, to wish Bill happy birthday last year.
In an interview with Gotham magazine, Spacey stated that Bill Clinton had told him that most of what goes on in the show is accurate.
Spacey told the publication that Bill Clinton had told him that loved House of Cards.
The actor, who is famous for his impressions, put on his Clinton voice and told the publication about Clinton's approval of the Netflix drama: "Kevin, 99 percent of what you do on that show is real. The 1 percent you get wrong is you could never get an education bill passed that fast."
This could be added reason for the show to take inspiration from an election that will have Hillary Clinton as a strong candidate.
