Recent "House of Cards" season 5 spoilers hinted that Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) will be killed off during its first episode, which resulted to Claire Underwood (Robin Wright) taking the lead, instead.

Based on the posted speculations of a Reddit user named Santidreet, the Democrat from South Carolina's fifth congressional district will open the political drama series' upcoming season via his funeral.

"Multiple times in the last couple of episodes they mention his liver possibly rejecting and he gasps in pain numerous times," Santidreet wrote. "Seems like foreshadowing."

The said user went on to explain that "The biggest hint/foreshadow for me was the final scene of the season. When Claire breaks the fourth wall for the first time in the series' history."

However, Santideet's personal "House of Cards" season 5 spoilers were not supported by Stargazer1080.

"I agree that Claire will probably now break the fourth wall but I don't think they'll kill off Frank so early," the commenter posted while pointing out that "We still have the fun of the election to go."

This was even supported by another commenter, Pdchessvamp, when it was noted that in the original version, which was aired in the UK, Frank actually died but it only happened later on when the Underwoods already snatched the victory in the 2016 elections.

Meanwhile, as Claire takes over to lead the nation, she will accordingly become the main character in the Netflix series.

On the other hand, Hollywood Reporter shared another interesting spoiler: "Suicide Squad's" Joel Kinnaman, who portrays the role of Will Conway, will continue to appear in "House of Cards" season 5.
