As filming of House of Cards is currently underway, all manner of rumors have started to surface about Frank Underwood's (Kevin Spacey) fate and next arch nemesis on the show. The most recent report suggests that Claire (Ronin Wright) might play turncoat and abet Frank's end on the show.

The report sources the plot of the original British series in which Frank's murder is devised by his wife who hires a special assasin for the job. This would be the ideal shocker had their not been a precedent, for fans.

There has also been speculation about the return of a few characters on the show like Doug Stamper (Paul Russo), who was presumed dead in the finale of season 2, and Lucas Black, who has been put away in jail.

The Doug mystery is something a lot of fans are eagerly awaiting to see the outcome of in the next season. Russo, who plays Doug on the show,hinted at the fact that he might very well be alive in next chapter. Russo has signed for a longer contract, so he was unsure of what that meant as he execs were meant to honor it and he was being kept in the dark about his storyline.

Show creator Beau Willimon has been tight-lipped and extremely cautious about giving away any information. So when asked about Black's return in a recent interview with Katie Couric, he suggested that there was only one way to find out.

Racel (Robin Wright) and Frank Underwood's (Kevin Spacey) marriage will be strong as an oak and the odd dalliances might continue. Wright, who directed an episode is also likely to direct more episodes in the third season of the show.

The third season of House of Cards will film in Maryland, where the first and second seasons were also shot. Initially, the continuation of filming of the third season of the Netflix series was fraught with troubles over the past few weeks as the producers weren't getting permission from the State of Maryland. But the issue was finally resolved on April 25.
