‘House of Cards’ Resumes Production, With Diane Lane and Greg Kinnear
The return to production ends a three-month odyssey
that began shortly after published an investigation detailing sexual harassment and assault allegations against the Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein and a national reckoning on sexual harassment began in earnest.
In October, after Anthony Rapp, an actor, accused Mr. Spacey of inappropriate sexual behavior, Netflix announced
that the next season of “House of Cards” would be its last, and suspended production not long after.
The sixth and final season of “House of Cards” will introduce new characters as it tries to move past a sexual misconduct scandal
that put the Netflix series in peril and forced out its biggest star.
Mr. Spacey, who played the central character, Frank Underwood, a ruthless politician who
becomes president, was shown the door amid allegations of sexual misconduct last year.
Netflix did not disclose what roles Ms. Lane or Mr. Kinnear will play other than that they will be brother and sister.
