House of Cards Season 6 Story: What Will Happen? (Spoilers)
Without any doubt, the next installment in the series is set around Claire turning into the President. She has become more ambitious or pronounced her ambitions openly. Frank has already enacted his plan to resign. He did to escape from being arrested for the murder of Zoe Barnes. Now, he will go and search power outside of the White House.
You know that the show has been around for power. We have seen that Frank gleefully watched a livestream as the car of Leann Harvey run off the road and she apparently died. Then, there was the horrific aftermath of the crash. But, Leann’s body was never found. It could mean that she is still alive.
The fate of Doug Stamper is also hanging between life and death. It’s because he took the fall for Frank and pleaded guilty to the murder of Zoe. It’s unfortunate, but we will have to wait for another year to see how it unfolds.

House of Cards season 6 Episodes
The first seasons had 13 episodes each. But, the last installment of the show will have just 8 episodes. The number was cut short to just 8 after cutting off the entire part of Kevin Spacey after the sexual exploitation allegations. The entire script was changed at the last moment.
The production restarted in January 2018, after being suspended in October 2017.
Spinoffs
Whatevery may happen to the original series, Netflix is looking forward to extend the House of Cards brand name by creating related shows. Several pitches for a spin-off are being explored.
One of those ideas is of ex-HoC writer Eric Roth. According to his idea, Michael Kelly will reprise his role as dirty-dealing fixer Doug Stamper working onf new poilitical crises.
Second possibility is to focus on the Washington DC media who brought down the Underwoods. Constance Zimmer and Boris McGiver may feature as journalists Janine Skorsky and Tom Hammerschmidt.
Third possibility is to focus on Wall Street. This can be told/narrated by the big money political power-broker Raymond Tusk or a new mogul.
