Netflix will premiere its first original TV series "House of Cards" on February 1, the company announced today. In a twist, the company will release all 13 episodes at once instead of parceling them out the way broadcast and cable channels do.
The show -- which stars Kevin Spacey ("Horrible Bosses," "American Beauty") and Robin Wright ("The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," "Forrest Gump") -- was produced exclusively for Netflix.
"House of Cards," based on a BBC miniseries of the same name, is a look at "uncompromising exploration of power, ambition and the American way," according to Netflix's press release. Spacey plays the House Majority Whip and Wright plays his wife who will "stop at nothing to ensure their ascendancy."
