The first official preview for season 3 of House of Cards is finally out and it looks very very dark.

Latest Updates About The Plot Of Season 3 Of House of Cards  

The clip is set to a tempestuous pulse, as Frank Spacey (Kevin Spacey) and Claire (Robin Wright) get swallowed into a vortex of deceit, dirty international politics and what looks to be a war situation. The coffins of soldiers are lowered into the grave, while Frank is seen making deals with the premier of another country (possibly Russia?) in the trailer.

At one point, the man in question is seen unabashadly kissing Claire at a party right in front of Frank. Toward the end of the preview, there are glimpses of a broken down, resigned Frank and Claire is seen telling him that they are murderers. But seems like Frank will still sustain that good ol cold blooded, ruthless spirit, as he is seen correcting her by letting her no that they are not murderers but survivors.
