There are reports that Neve Campbell and her partner may be pitted against the show’s original power couple of Frank and Claire Underwood.
However, perusing into the existing plotline of the show based on its Season 3 finale, Frank and Claire Underwood have called it quits and as such, there is no power couple when Season 4 of the series is aired.
Unless the first episode of Season 4 focuses on Frank and Claire working things out between themselves and both agreeing to give their relationship another shot. But that will be contrary to previous reports, rumors, and speculations about the upcoming plotline of the show where Claire shall work on plotting the downfall of Frank from power.
So if Neve Campbell will be coming in as one-half of a young power couple, then their pair will not be contending with anybody in the show at all.
The other take on Neve Campbell’s role and her power couple part is that she may be playing as the young Claire and her partner will be the young Frank. With that being said, it is possible that the series may have some sort of flashbacks and show the former First Couple’s humble beginnings.
