Over the course of Netflix’s astute marketing campaign for House of Cards season 3, we’ve been treated with atmospheric vignettes that showcase the brooding Underwoods, a series of motion pictures and a foreboding trailer.

As previous footage alluded to, this upcoming season will primarily focus on the couple as they struggle to keep all of the plates spinning against sky-high stakes. No mean feat, of course, given that Kevin Spacey’s Frank isn’t known for making friends in the traditional sense. But now that the tyrannical South Carolinian is the newly-appointed President in Walker’s steed, it will be interesting to see how his arc pans out across the thirteen hour-long episodes.

Alongside Spacey and Robin Wright are newcomers Nadezhda Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina, along with Gone Girl star Kim Dickens in an unspecified, yet recurring role.

House of Cards season 3 is scheduled to premiere exclusively on Netflix come Friday, February 27. For now, you can glimpse at the delicious, politically-driven story that awaits you via the trailer above.
