Two new teasers for season 4 of House of Cards has finally surfaced, Enstars brings you up today with all that you need to know.

The latest teaser strongly hints at Frank's (Frank Underwood) murder of Zoe Barnes (Kate Mara) as it shows a bouquet lying on the train tracks, quickly moving to Frank's campaign message--"Putting America Back on Track"--for reelection as president.

This also seems to suggest that Frank might continue playing dirty as he has done in the past to get to where he needs to be, meaning anything is fair game.

The other clip, titled "The Leader We Deserve" is essentially Frank addressing the nation, jusifying why he should be reelected and America deserves him. As he speaks from his White House desk, the monologue is interspersed with flashbacks of all his dirty deeds--the various seductions and murders.

There is a deeply ominous tone to the clip, and Frank's steely stare, as he convinces America to vote for him underscores the sentiment of the clip.

The first teaser for the season was dropped during the live telecast of the Republican Presidential debate on CNN.

The fictive campaign spot for Frank was revealed teasing season 4 of House of Cards streams a hopeful view of the country and all its people living free, in peaceful harmony. The voiceover for the spot runs: "It's a new day in America, today more people will go to work, return to their families and sleep more soundly than ever before all because one man refuses to settle, putting people before politics. That man is Frank Underwood."

Then Spacey steps in as Underwood with a darkly subtextual message: "America I am only getting started."

Rumors of Doug Stamper (Michael Kelly) finally being killed off in season 4 had started to take over. In a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times, Kelly addressed that question, and suggested that if it were up to him he would stay put till the end of the Netflix political drama. "I don't know, man, I don't want him to," he said. "This is the greatest job I've ever had, Doug Stamper is the greatest gift I have ever been given as an actor. I love playing him, I love going to work everyday, here we are in season 4 and I love going to work just as much as I did first day of season 1 and that says a lot."

In highly-anticipated new characters for season 4, we have Neve Campbell joining this game of dirty politics. Deadline had hinted that Cambell's character might rival Frank (Kevin Spacey) in the next chapter. This fits in with another spoiler relating to a younger power couple being introduced in the Netflix political drama. Could Campbell's character be one half of this power couple?

There has also been a whole lot of speculation surrounding the fate of Claire (Robin Wright) and Frank's (Kevin Spacey) marriage in season 4. Season 3 ended with an assurance of Claire leaving Frank and never looking back, but it's best to not take that as an absolute.

While showrunner Beau Willimon has been pretty tight-lipped about giving away any spoilers, he did hint at the fact that fans' reaction to season 3 wouldn't necessarily govern how the next chapter goes down.

In an interview with E! Online, Willimon spoke about how he will be mindful of criticisms it would not drastically affect season 4. First off, he celebrated the fact that many of the risks they took with season 3 paid off when it came to most fans.

"We took a lot of risks with season three," Willimon said. "We wanted to delve deeper into the emotional story. We wanted a little less political intrigue and a little more of the emotional flux. We wanted to tell the story of the marriage. I think there were a lot of fans that really appreciated that. And for a lot of them, this turn that we took made it their favorite season."

Then he got down to the negative feedback on season 3, and how some fans did not really enjoy that things started to fall apart for the Underwoods, and their winning streak had been stymied.

"Of course, there were people who wanted to see the Underwoods kick butt in their usual fashion and have victory after victory and I'm sure it was hard for them to see the Underwoods tumble and sometimes fall," he said. "But if they didn't, they wouldn't be human, and it would make it seem like the presidency was a cakewalk, which we know it's not."

And although Willimon is appreciative of all comments positive and negative, it is not going to govern the narrative of his show.

"We have to walk a certain line," Willimon explains. "We don't want to pander or cater an upcoming season based purely on fan responses. But I am interested in what they have to say and I think it's great we can talk to each other."

Season 4 of House of Cards is set to return on March 4.
