Frank Underwood News

It's Othello's downfall but Iago's show in Pittsburgh Public's thrilling presentation of Shakespeare's tragic thriller.

A+E Networks® today announced the launch of Asterisk, a new brand that explores culture through the lens of history.

According to Deadline, Netflix has renewed HOUSE OF CARDS for a fourth season, expected to premiere early next year. No official release date has been announced.

Film and television stars (and audiences) are sure to come out in droves when funny ladies Tina Fey and Amy Poehler take the stage for a final time (so they say!) to host the Golden Globes, tonight on NBC at 8pm/7c. While the annual ceremony wouldn't be as geared toward theatre people as, say, the Tony Awards (June 7th on CBS for those who need a heads-up), this year is a bit different, with a collection of nominees having Broadway experience, and a few films up for nods having ties to theatre as well.

On last night's THE COLBERT REPORT on Comedy Central, 'House of Cards' President Frank Underwood (Broadway's Kevin Spacey) surprised host Stephen Colbert and offered charming yet ominous leadership advice.

In support of Bill Clinton's upcoming 68th birthday, House of Cards' Kevin Spacey (as his House of Cards character, Frank Underwood) called up Hilary Clinton to show off his Bill Clinton impersonation. As Clinton, Spacey makes an odd birthday request of the former first lady in this video.

In a video just released by The Clinton Foundation, Kevin Spacey -- as HOUSE OF CARDS' Frank Underwood -- calls Hillary Clinton impersonating her husband and former president Bill Clinton requesting a large gift for his 68th birthday, coming up on August 19. Watch the prank call below!

Kevin Spacey stopped by last night's TONIGHT SHOW STARRING JIMMY FALLON and talked about performing Shakespeare in China and Spain and how they documented it in Now: in the Wings on a World Stage.

CALL OF DUTY: Advanced Warfare envisions battlegrounds of the future, where both technology and tactic have evolved to usher in a new era of combat for the franchise. The film, starring Kevin Spacey, hits theaters on November 4th, 2014.

Shining a spotlight on one of the greatest actors alive, today we celebrate the stunning stage and screen career of actor, director and patron of the arts Kevin Spacey.

Last night I had the particular privilege of discussing the intricacies and intrigue of William Shakespeare's legendary history play RICHARD III with one of the greatest actors of our age and a true patron of the arts - two-time Academy Award winner Kevin Spacey. Discussing the finer points of his characterization of the hunchback antihero, Spacey paints a vivid portrait of his experiences in reteaming with his AMERICAN BEAUTY collaborator, director Sam Mendes, on bringing a truly 21st century take on the classic play to the stage - and then bringing the production all the way from the hallowed ground of Spacey's own The Old Vic in London, to the Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York City to a whirlwind worldwide tour spanning the globe. NOW, a compelling new documentary following the project from rehearsal through to opening night and ensuing world tour is set to be released next month and is highlighted by the fly-on-the-wall intimacy and access it provides viewers, as well as offering copious performance footage of Spacey and company in action onstage. Additionally, Spacey and I address and analyze the undeniable connections between RICHARD III and his super-successful Netflix dramatic series HOUSE OF CARDS, touching upon not only the dramatic parallels, but the lucky sequence of events that made the entire endeavor possible in the first place. After all, Frank Underwood is the modern Richard III in many ways - bloodlust, ambition, ego, humor and darkness included; but, also, the humanity. Plus, Spacey expresses his enthusiasm for starting work on Season Three of the series now that they have been granted Maryland filming tax breaks once again, which was holding up production until this week. Besides all of that, Spacey also clues us in on his future endeavors of interest, mentioning his spate of recent musical performances and his desire to pursue a musical role once again sometime soon following his acclaimed turn as Bobby Darin in musical biopic BEYOND THE SEA. FOLLIES, perhaps?! A wide-ranging conversation with a stage and screen mega-star like none other awaits in today's special spotlight.

Earlier this afternoon, Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey joined The Leonard Lopate Show's guest host Anna Sale to talk about his roles as RICHARD III on stage, Frank Underwood in HOUSE OF CARDS, and his documentary NOW: In the Wings on a World Stage. Click below to listen!
