More speculations about the "House of Cards" series are surfacing, given that unconfirmed information leads its supporters to believe that the fifth season of the political drama series is going to return on March 2017.
According to recent rumors, the Underwoods will display a greater conflict between them in the awaited "House of Cards" Season 5.

According to Australia Network News, Claire may indeed be the next president, as a Reddit user, Santidreet, said that Frank is going to die in the first episode of the fifth season.

The same publication also cited the theory of another reddit user, Changyang1230, who predicted that "House of Cards" Season 5 will be the last season of the series.
Meanwhile, according to Cross Map, Claire will eventually be Frank's biggest rival in "House of Cards" Season 5.
