How does peter russo die

We were set up to be long-term characters… and not so much. Speaking of Kate, you came back and did a cameo from beyond the grave in season 4, so what was it like to pick Peter back up after having felt like you put him to bed so beautifully? I was very skeptical about it, because I had felt that the story was so well-told and completely told, and, exactly, I had put him to bed. But I was definitely nervous about doing anything to lessen the impact of what was already filmed.

Any final thoughts on Peter and the series as a whole? Peter was an unique experience for me on film. I had been able to find characters onstage that served as sort of vessels for my psyche in the way that Peter was, but never on film and television. There was a completeness about that character that was very satisfying and cathartic to play.

He was a vessel that fit perfectly for me and so the fact that other people could react to that and react positively to that means a lot to me. Based on a BBC serial of the same name. Louis, he's told it's to vet Raymond Tusk as a potential candidate for the next vice president.

Turns out, the game's on Frank — Tusk and the president are old friends, and the trip is really so the billionaire businessman can vet Frank, not the other way around. And then he gets it. Hello, Mr. Vice President. Talk about a twist hitting you like, well, a speeding train. Frank, wanting to remove all connections tying him to the death of Peter Russo, dispatches of Zoe by asking her to meet covertly at a Metro station and then shoving her in front of an oncoming train.

During a live TV interview essential to furthering their aspirations, Claire proves she's as adept at her husband at manipulating situations for political gains. Since Frank was wrapped up in many of those things, he intercepted Russo before he could spill his guts and helped him drink even more until he passed out in his car. Then Frank left the car running, closed Russo's garage door, and left him for dead.

Peter Russo is now a ghost of House of Cards past, barely getting mentioned in the show anymore. Fortunately, the actor who plays Peter Russo is still busy working in television and movies for those that still want a dose of Russo.

Corey Stoll, whose HoC performance earned him a Golden Globe nomination , continues to bring his unique brand of seething anger and vulnerability to other roles that can help you imagine a world where Peter Russo is still alive and switches careers, or perhaps fights vampires.

Spoilers for Season 4 of Homeland: It sounded like great news when it was announced that Stoll was going to be coming on Homeland! Here was a great actor, fresh off his juicy career-making role in House of Cards being introduced as a character in another prestigious drama about those who wish to do what they believe is right for America.

What was surely going to end up being a fantastic role ended up being a very short one, and it seems the producers sought to fake-out fans who are trained to expect that a high-profile actor won't be killed in the same episode that they're introduced in. Who does Frank Underwood kill? Did Frank Underwood want Russo to fail? Who kills Peter Russo?

What episode does Frank kill Peter? Why did Claire visit Zoe? Does Claire know that Frank killed Zoe? Did Claire know Frank killed?
