Netflix's New Original Series 'House of Cards,' Starring Kevin Spacey and Directed by David Fincher, Gets a Trailer

From the looks of the first trailer for House of Cards, Netflix is going to change our definition of TV in February. House of Cards, Netflix's new original series, kicks off its 13-episode run then, and with a cast boasting Kevin Spacey, Robin Wright and Kate Mara in addition to having David Fincher in the director's seat, House of Cards could be a critical hit without ever appearing on an actual TV network.

Netflix Original Series 'House of Cards.' All 13 episodes arrive February 1, only on Netflix. Ruthless and cunning, Congressman Francis Underwood (Oscar® winner Kevin Spacey) and his wife Claire (Robin Wright) stop at nothing to conquer everything.
