Netflix Extends 'House of Cards' Hiatus To Write Off Spacey's Character

Netflix is extending the production hiatus on the sixth and final season of "House of Cards".  

Filming was put on hold after news first broke of the sexual misconduct allegations against star and executive producer Kevin Spacey. That hold has been extended by another two weeks. 

Producers reportedly are trying to write Spacey's character out of the show after firing him earlier this month.

And the fact that the writing in particular seems to be requiring extra work implies that the show won’t simply be replacing all uses of “Frank Underwood” with “Claire Underwood” or introducing a new Underwood cousin who acts just like Frank but isn’t played by an accused sexual predator.
