A new report brings us the character details of latest cast addition Jenna Stern, for season 3 of House of Cards, revealing that the political drama will be getting a new UN ambassador.

Who Is Most Likely To Die In Season 3 Of House of Cards?

It was recently announced that Stern of Law & Order, will be joining the Netflix series but little was known about her role. TVLine has now revealed that she will be stepping in as a UN Ambassador.

The news of Stern being cast followed the news about Gone Girl actress Kim Dickens joining the show. The nature of Dickens' part has also been kept under wraps.

The Underwoods Inspired By The Roosevelts And Clintons?

Filming for House of Cards is taking place in Washington D.C. right now, probably to lend some authenticity to the setting, but for the most part the location is still Maryland, as it was for the previous two seasons. Kevin Spacey, who plays Frank Underwood, was recently spotted shooting a scene at a cemetery in Maryland.

The most recent talk surrounding the storyline had to do with the show's engagement with foreign affairs, particularly Russia, which has been a thorny issue for the US of late. It is known the Pussy Riot, the feminist punk group that was persecuted in Russia on grounds of profanity and their anti-establishment protest, will be guest starring season 3, playing themselves.

The show is directed by Beau Willimon and stars Spacey and Robin Wright, who portrays Claire Underwood on 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.
