Hail to the new chief, as 'House of Cards' drops new trailer for final season
Watch Next

If you didn't get the memo, Kevin Spacey will not be in the final season of Netflix's House of Cards, where he plays the ruthless politician Francis Underwood.

The sudden, but warranted ousting of Spacey following accusations of sexual misconduct left the show's writers in a bit of a conundrum. Yet in an unexpected preview of the show's final season dropped during the Oscars, things are "just getting started."

Played by Robin Wright, Claire Underwood breaks the fourth wall of the teaser to declare that it's her time to run the show, as she indicated at the end of Season 5.
