"Pope?" he joked. "The presidency is one thing, but how about Pope Francis?"

The actor dished about how Frank was not going to have a change of heart and conscience any time soon and as the show ravels it will mostly be an exercise in "how dark that well is." Spacey suggested that he and the show's writer-producer Beau Willimon and producer David Fincher, they had a "desire to see just how dark that well is and how deep does it go. We have miles to go before we sleep."
