Funny that I think is exactly the opposite: Frank is a plain out psycho so his actions are framed into the symptoms of someone ill while Claire has given many times hints of actually having a conscience which makes her ruthlessness and ambition even more dangerous, because she knows she's evil...remember when she broke down crying when Walker's wife called her a good person: she knew she was the exact opposite of a good person, she shows some remorse, but just two seconds later she composed herself and walked up the stairs like a boss. No regrets.
Stelios P I just finished the newest season! I'm impressed I didn't know it could get even better than it already was. It's amazing and yea Claire is a beast lol. Imagine next season! I can't wait...it's not fair lol I'm kidding I know they spend all that time making the show great.
She`s like those Victorian novels where the writer describes an astonishingly breathtaking, beautiful and intellectual lady. She feels royal, the way she smiles, walks, sits and even complement or joke. I thought this "Royalty" was only in Claire, yet, damn man, I think Claire is learning from Robin the methods of being such a captivating first lady and have our minds and praise, Not the other way around.
She's acting so well in HoC I can't look at her without being intimidated. It seems to me the actress has a heart of stone and puts on this act of Robin Wright
Agreed. But it's like she's just such an amazing actress, Jenny from FG was such a fickle minded insecure woman, and it's hard to think about her with that contradiction really. Like she gets into such a character of such structured strength with age and it came through with her acting.
The contradiction is even greater when you compare Claire with Buttercup from Princess Bride. The grace of Robin Wright shows through on all the character though.
You sayin that basically there's no Robin Wright and she's actually Claire Underwood and when she's off camera she plays a character called Robin Wright? That's a version of her own film The Congress (brilliant, ahead of its time arthouse film)
Mr.DunkelBerry - Have some respect. "Still bang her though" as if it'd be up to you. Women have a long history of being reduced to sexual objects, and your comment falls in line with conventional douchebag-ery. Your confusion is also telling of your age, you're young, you don't put much thought into what you say since you've grown up with the internet, and it's just .... normal to fart out whatever thought your sheltered mind bleeps. But take is a letter from the better, words have consequences.
An opinionated person with a non-apologetic point of view, healthy and beautiful at 51, who is able to compare characters to artistic movements so flawlessly, and has given life to iconic characters ... real life wonder woman...
She comes off very sweet, smart and charismatic. Well spoken and doesnt take herself too seriously. She also has very kind eyes. Dont know if she truly is like that, because they all turn it up for PR, but the impression she leaves is great.
I keep forgetting people are not the characters they play. Then someone like Robin Wright shows up and remind me. So beautiful. So delightful. So charming.
Robin Wright is so sweet. She's notorious for suffering anxiety/stage fright and being very shy during interviews. 51 and still the most beautiful woman in the room.
Wow... I mean seriously Wow. Fell in love with her her during Princess Bride. Fell out of love with her during Sean Penn. Grew into accepting her as an attractive evil step-sister somewhere along the line before descending into genuine apprehension and butt clenching terror during house of cards. And now you are telling me she's in Wonder Woman???? That's it. Both my sons. We're going.
Felix Hurtig I don't mind that theory, but I also see reason to believe the theory that the entire series is his memoirs. He's narrating to us, the readers in the future. It will definitely be interesting, regardless.
Felix Hurtig I'm kind of all for this, in terms of a plot twist, but at the same time she's just as evil as he is so would that really be a better outcome?
I think their hitmans will did their jobs at the same time, so they won't ever know who kills who. And that will be the moment when the whole house of cards falls apart.
Nicole Lindsay yeah girl, you should see it! She's so good (with a thick ass accent) I didn't evem realize it was her- even though I was binge watching HOC on the way to WW!
her analogy was interesting unfortunately she didn't quite reference the correct art movement. I think what she tried referencing when she said Cubism was more of an artists style by the name of Piet Mondrian who painted abstract pieces that depict more of the compartmentalization she referred to. Cubism itself is still actually a bit jumbled works of art for the most part like a shared mirror.
ink926 Actually, I think her analogy was on point. She was trying to make the analogy between a Pollock painting - which is paint splashed all over in a seemingly chaotic manner, and a Cubist - Cubists paint in abstract geometric shapes. Meaning, both are abstract but one seems chaotic and one looks contained. She wasn't trying to make an analogy to a specific painter about compartmentalization. The reason she used Pollock, the artist, and not a movement is bc Pollock was unique in his style, so much so that a Pollock is itself a style.
frd_grnapple3123 Since when is cubism contained? it's pretty chaotic in its own right. Why would her analogy be of something chaotic to something very chaotic. She is trying to show difference between the characters. Her mannerisms also suggest she is referring more to the Mondrian types of art, the as you said is more compartmentalized, rather than cubism. At the end of the day I understand what she means, whether ur right or im right we know what she is trying to do.
there is something fascinating, beautiful and broken about her... the way she can go from faux serious to smiling, thoughtful to embarrassed within the span of a second seems to point to a deeper darkness
Oh myyyy! Her smile! I'm hooked! Wowwwwww! Deliciously sensual! Amazing analogy...classy! How did her eyes light up when she talked about her film....giving due to her crew!
my grandmother always says "everyone wants to get to old age but no one wants to get old". I liked that he said her age and that she smiled and answered the question. a lot of women who want equality get touchy when they get asked questions that men get asked all the time. these are the little things that actually truly help women discard the "untouchable princesses with pretty hair and perfect faces" reputation that they so badly want to get rid of. way to go Stephen, way to go Robin.
nachowarrior1 I didn't even know she was Claire Underwood through this interview until Colbert said it. And then I saw it hahaha xD what the heck it's like an illusion
I rarely see her character smiles but here OMG. What a gorgeous smile/laugh! Also struck when seeing her in "Blade Runner 2049", supportive role but still amazing. BTW, it gets a little awkward Kevin Spacey came out on twitter today, out of the context of a sexual harassment allegation...
She's EXTREMELY talented. Just look at how she is in this interview: funny, warm, smiles a lot - gone is the steel-hard smile of Claire or the outright killing gaze of General Antiope. Of course she's an actress so that's her job but not all are as good as her. Plus, she's easily one of the most beautiful women of her generation.
She's a great actress. They could easily have reversed the roles between her character Claire, and Frank Underwood without missing a beat. In fact, I think we're all anxious to see if they actually do that.
I haven't seen WW yet, but I am glad that she got a part as a warrior in the film. She just kills it on HOC. Very elegant and damn scary. She does such a great job at portraying feminine strength. She's strong without being shrill or bossy. I really enjoy watching her.
So, I guess someone has to say it... Nips. On a more serious note, I'm super excited for HoC. She was hinting that she will be talking to the camera and might usurp Francis??? Hype!
I think I'm afraid of Robin Wright because of her character Claire LOL... I'm looking at this thinking, how can she seem so sweet and down to earth here and so SCARY on HoC?! hahaha, love her!
I guess if you get to look like Robin Wright age is REALLY just a number and there's no shame in saying it, you could even flaunting it. But yes, Colbert could have been more subtle....
Małgorzata Miklaszewska Robin looks gorgeous. I have no problem with her age. But Colbert asked her as 51 years old woman was it hard for her to keep up with younger cast mates. I believe that he could have been more subtle.
Can you imagine Colbert asking this to Tom Cruise (or any other male 50+ actor)? "Was it hard for you to keep up? You're in fantastic shape, you're 54 yo at this point. Did you have trouble keeping up with the younger actresses or actors who were working out like this?"
First, there have been tons of female superheroes on the big screen- both as part of ensembles, and having their own movies. Second, I may be 20 years younger than Robin, but she still looks damn fine.
I usually wince when I watch US celeb interviewers, they're often attention seeking, poor listeners and lazy questioners, but in this case how refreshing that the host wasn't crazy and allowed her to speak. And I loved her artist analogy too re: the Underwoods. Go Robin. Classy lady.x
![The Amazons Workout 'WONDER WOMAN' Behind The Scenes [+Subtitles]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/U2O_bboGEDc/mqdefault.jpg)
Claire scares me more than Frank sometimes, tbh.
They are both ruthless, but Frank seems human sometimes, but Claire just seems to be able to shut that off and destroy people lol
Funny that I think is exactly the opposite: Frank is a plain out psycho so his actions are framed into the symptoms of someone ill while Claire has given many times hints of actually having a conscience which makes her ruthlessness and ambition even more dangerous, because she knows she's evil...remember when she broke down crying when Walker's wife called her a good person: she knew she was the exact opposite of a good person, she shows some remorse, but just two seconds later she composed herself and walked up the stairs like a boss. No regrets.
did you watch the new season? i think "sometimes" is gonna be gone from that sentence when you do.
Stelios P I just finished the newest season! I'm impressed I didn't know it could get even better than it already was. It's amazing and yea Claire is a beast lol. Imagine next season! I can't wait...it's not fair lol I'm kidding I know they spend all that time making the show great.
alohakatie I know right!
Robin Wright is so beautiful, smart, and a terrific actress!
I love her! ❤️
UNC GRAD you are everywhere, haha. I see you on secular, tyt, here, etc. 👋🏽
UNC GRAD but yeah. She's beyond beautiful
UNC GRAD i
UNC GRAD you are all over youtube 😂😂 i swear.
Robin Wright is wonderful, I cannot wait to see her as a badass Amazonian General in Wonder Woman. And House of Cards new season is almost here! :) :)
She ages like a fine wine. I'm not exaggerating, I genuinely think she's more attractive now than when she was younger
SidV101 same
I agree! She is mesmerisingly beautiful 😍
Definitely
Much like Stephen King.
"And little boys" I love how she added that because it is also important for boys to see strong heroic women.
1. OMG, 51?
2. she the personification of class and style
3. she is so bad ass
4. i want to be like her when i grow up!
She`s like those Victorian novels where the writer describes an astonishingly breathtaking, beautiful and intellectual lady.
She feels royal, the way she smiles, walks, sits and even complement or joke.
I thought this "Royalty" was only in Claire, yet, damn man, I think Claire is learning from Robin the methods of being such a captivating first lady and have our minds and praise, Not the other way around.
She's the definition of class, brains and beauty, all at 51. I'm amazed.
She's acting so well in HoC I can't look at her without being intimidated. It seems to me the actress has a heart of stone and puts on this act of Robin Wright

Huy Cao simply shows her range as an actress!
She was also starring in Santa Barbara, playing Kelly Capwell - she’s gorgeous in that serial!
51 years old? Are you kidding me?OMG
Total milf, can you believe she has a son in his 20's?
If you said daughter, I'd google it.
Bro she has daughter
I had no idea she had a daughter and now I found out that is with Sean Penn, her daughter is gorgeous!

I love it when she breaks into a smile
she calls him Francis like Claire does
Yara Alawi I totally get a married vibe from them
She s claire
An opinionated person with a non-apologetic point of view, healthy and beautiful at 51, who is able to compare characters to artistic movements so flawlessly, and has given life to iconic characters ... real life wonder woman...
Yep, she already is. Also I gasped a little when seeing her in "Blade Runner 2049", great performance .
Well said
That cubism analogy was spot-on. Loved it! Love her!
She comes off very sweet, smart and charismatic. Well spoken and doesnt take herself too seriously. She also has very kind eyes. Dont know if she truly is like that, because they all turn it up for PR, but the impression she leaves is great.
She's Texan. That's how they do
She’s Claire Underwood, what do you expect
I keep forgetting people are not the characters they play. Then someone like Robin Wright shows up and remind me. So beautiful. So delightful. So charming.
how is no one pointing out the fact that she can bench 175. Jesus Christ.
She is a he
She can't
Robin Wright is so sweet. She's notorious for suffering anxiety/stage fright and being very shy during interviews. 51 and still the most beautiful woman in the room.
She has so much charisma, damn.
Annele555 Another Texan....she was born there.
Wow... I mean seriously Wow. Fell in love with her her during Princess Bride. Fell out of love with her during Sean Penn. Grew into accepting her as an attractive evil step-sister somewhere along the line before descending into genuine apprehension and butt clenching terror during house of cards. And now you are telling me she's in Wonder Woman???? That's it. Both my sons. We're going.
I'd almost forgotten how goddam amazing she is.
Absolutely gorgeous. Ms. Wright will always be one of the most gorgeous actresses in Hollywood.
Love her. Strong women are awesome.
I've been eating 2-3000 calories a day for years - Where's my superhero movie?!
LOL
H 2-3,000 calories is about the recommended amount for a normal human adult. Has Robin not been eating the last 50 years?
For women, the amount tends to be 1,600-2,200 per day, depending on how sedentary or active their lifestyle is.
2 to 3000 is quiet the range ...
Eating ONLY 2000 per day would make me cranky. 3000 per day would be about right for maintaining weight.
Mark my words: Claire is going to orchestrate the death of Frank in the last episode.
Felix Hurtig I don't mind that theory, but I also see reason to believe the theory that the entire series is his memoirs. He's narrating to us, the readers in the future. It will definitely be interesting, regardless.
Felix Hurtig I'm kind of all for this, in terms of a plot twist, but at the same time she's just as evil as he is so would that really be a better outcome?
Little angry that Colbert gave away a bit of info and forced an explanation.
I think their hitmans will did their jobs at the same time, so they won't ever know who kills who. And that will be the moment when the whole house of cards falls apart.
In fact that's the original ending in the UK version.
I liked Robin Wright's chemistry with Craig Ferguson. She seemed so relaxed with him.
Had no idea Robin Wright was in this movie! Just another reason to see it in theatres imo
"I had to burst out laughing because it was so bad(ass)!"
100% love for Robin Wright btw
-Also, Cap Marvel will own ;)
Dain Comella Princess Bride. OMG. Forget it. I'm heading back to the salt mines now lol
@ Denis Vargas She's in the Marisa Tomei league of becoming more attractive as she ages
Nicole Lindsay yeah girl, you should see it! She's so good (with a thick ass accent) I didn't evem realize it was her- even though I was binge watching HOC on the way to WW!
Dain Comella Sandra Bullock also.
She was benching 175 pounds?! Most impressed.
That was actually a pretty interesting analogy.
her analogy was interesting unfortunately she didn't quite reference the correct art movement. I think what she tried referencing when she said Cubism was more of an artists style by the name of Piet Mondrian who painted abstract pieces that depict more of the compartmentalization she referred to.

No, she spoke for herself perfectly well.

ink926 Yo, tf, I think you're totally missing the point. Step away from the tree and look at the forest.
What a kind woman Robin Wright is.. and beautiful!
there is something fascinating, beautiful and broken about her... the way she can go from faux serious to smiling, thoughtful to embarrassed within the span of a second seems to point to a deeper darkness
It's so weird watching her smile and laugh, and she's gorgeous.
Oh myyyy! Her smile! I'm hooked! Wowwwwww! Deliciously sensual! Amazing analogy...classy! How did her eyes light up when she talked about her film....giving due to her crew!
Christ...... she is stunning
my grandmother always says "everyone wants to get to old age but no one wants to get old".

wait wtf robin wright is claire underwood and jenny from forest gump? i thought those were two separate actors!
She's also Buttercup from The Princess Bride!
woaaaaaaaaaaah
nachowarrior1 I didn't even know she was Claire Underwood through this interview until Colbert said it. And then I saw it hahaha xD what the heck it's like an illusion
yeah ikr! she looks so different!
she's a chameleon, and irl she seems to be the exact opposite of Claire Underwood. Which is a testament of her range as an actress.
I know what love is, Jennayy
But she won't marry you. She has better plans for her future.
I adore this woman. I have loved everything she has done.
"And little boys." So true!!! One boy behind me said: "Diana NO!" Brother said: "Don't worry she'll be ok." Gave me life!!!!
she is gorgeous! Her and Michelle Pfeiffer are timeless to me
this women is amazing...love her acting in HOC..so much personality ..so much grace
She is such a graceful woman.. Deserves all the Applause & Respect of the world..
I rarely see her character smiles but here OMG. What a gorgeous smile/laugh! Also struck when seeing her in "Blade Runner 2049", supportive role but still amazing.
BTW, it gets a little awkward Kevin Spacey came out on twitter today, out of the context of a sexual harassment allegation...
Loved the analogy she made about Claire and Frank, they are indeed so different, that's why they make such a powerful couple
Never underestimate Robin Wright's acting skills. She can really twist your thought process!!
You should see her in “adore” creepy movie
this almost made me cry ... She felt the instinctual need to apologise for making a sophisticated and astute analogy on national television.
YAY - she just confirmed there is a season 6. Super happy!!!!
She looks like she's still in her 30s, if you ask me.
chrisgast She looks like an in shape, super hot 42 year old.
She's EXTREMELY talented. Just look at how she is in this interview: funny, warm, smiles a lot - gone is the steel-hard smile of Claire or the outright killing gaze of General Antiope.
Of course she's an actress so that's her job but not all are as good as her.
Plus, she's easily one of the most beautiful women of her generation.
Is there anything this woman can't do? Oh my god, fantastic!
She needs to get an Emmy already!
Am I wright?
This actress has been a princess, a president, and a general. Amazing!
Another proof that Colbert's focus is legendary.
I hope she's back for Unbreakable sequel.
She will!
transformerszlaja I love me some Audrey Dunn
God it's so strange to think of all the things she's been in, she's freaking awesome.
She's a great actress. They could easily have reversed the roles between her character Claire, and Frank Underwood without missing a beat. In fact, I think we're all anxious to see if they actually do that.
Robin Wright is a class act, someone any young girl(or boy) can look up to.
51....holy crap...she looks like she is 20 ish!!!! wow!!!
lol...i guess 20 year olds look like 45 year olds to you.
I think that is a good thing ...maybe not....maybe I should get my eyes checked.
40 but never 20 years old. People are always exaggeratin lol
Man, I've loved her ever since Princess Bride. So glad to see her still going strong and looking incredible.
Love the art analogy: Pollock vs Cubism. Hello, Buttercup! "As you wish!"
I haven't seen WW yet, but I am glad that she got a part as a warrior in the film. She just kills it on HOC. Very elegant and damn scary. She does such a great job at portraying feminine strength. She's strong without being shrill or bossy. I really enjoy watching her.
So, I guess someone has to say it...
Nips.
On a more serious note, I'm super excited for HoC. She was hinting that she will be talking to the camera and might usurp Francis??? Hype!
thank you.
Brandon Sand I hope Claire fails in her ambitions.....Frank was right- She doesn't value what they have achieved.
Brandon Sand yes this is known. someone had to say it
you can not try to take a serious note after pointing out that...
Nips...
And NVP.
Daaaamn, can´t wait to watch this movie and also HoC next week.
So much respect for Robin, in and out of character, just any character she plays
4:37 is probably when she realised, 'shit...i just gave out a spoiler'
She's amazing, such a fantastic actor. Love her!
Such a talented actress.
Que mujer mas elegante para vestir auque su presidencia fue una total ausecia de francis es un deleite verla vestir y sonreir.
I guess I would date an older woman.....
i love the way robin says "Francis"
The fact she still calls him Francis even out of character 😍
WHAT A BEAUTY
She is so beautiful.
I think I'm afraid of Robin Wright because of her character Claire LOL... I'm looking at this thinking, how can she seem so sweet and down to earth here and so SCARY on HoC?! hahaha, love her!
It's been a while since I've seen Robin Wright look so happy. That makes me glad.
"That some Legolas shit right there!" Totally! Loved her in Wonder Woman. I can rewatch that beach fight scene in a loop.
She benches 175lbs :0!
think she was joking
The only good thing about the new wonder woman is Antiope ❤️ would love to have a sequel just following her back story!
She is still stunningly gorgeous!
badass women club :
Robin Wright
Charlize Theron
Cate Blanchett
Milla Jovovich
The way Colbert dropped her age wasn't smooth enough. I cringed a little
I guess if you get to look like Robin Wright age is REALLY just a number and there's no shame in saying it, you could even flaunting it. But yes, Colbert could have been more subtle....
Would he have to be more subtle if she was 22 years old??? Maybe we should be less hung up about age.
I don't understand why is age something one should be ashamed of?
Małgorzata Miklaszewska Robin looks gorgeous. I have no problem with her age. But Colbert asked her as 51 years old woman was it hard for her to keep up with younger cast mates. I believe that he could have been more subtle.
He would never say that if she didn't give her ok before the show. All of this is rehearsed, man.
The moment you realize Princess Buttercup and Jenny are the same person and you feel like an idiot for never picking it up before.
Holy shit, just realized Claire Underwood was in Wonder Woman, lol
She's a badass in everything she does :D
That Pollack-Cubism analogy to describe Frank and Claire Underwood respectively couldn't have been said better.
Robin wright, what a wonderful specimen
I know Kevin Spacey is a national treasure and all, but Robin Wright might have just talked me into finally watching House of Cards. Wow...
Oh please, she barely looks 35.
As you wish.
Can you imagine Colbert asking this to Tom Cruise (or any other male 50+ actor)?
"Was it hard for you to keep up? You're in fantastic shape, you're 54 yo at this point. Did you have trouble keeping up with the younger actresses or actors who were working out like this?"
First, there have been tons of female superheroes on the big screen- both as part of ensembles, and having their own movies. Second, I may be 20 years younger than Robin, but she still looks damn fine.
She's Claire Underwood with an expression on her face 😂
I love that I live in a time to see my childhood badass princesses become badass generals.
(thanks twitter person who did that first.)
Did she just spoil that Claire becomes VP?
not really, it was hinted already in the trailer for season 5, several times.
newtonianlove Let's be honest there's no way they were losing the election
No she just cleared that Claire is the Vice President of Francis AKA the running mate.
If you didn't see it coming, you don't know the show.
Cristian Madera I've seen the show twice and I didn't see it coming
Now that I've seen the fifth season, her answers make me laugh
She's probably so tired of people asking about similarities between the Trump administration and HoC...
I usually wince when I watch US celeb interviewers, they're often attention seeking, poor listeners and lazy questioners, but in this case how refreshing that the host wasn't crazy and allowed her to speak. And I loved her artist analogy too re: the Underwoods. Go Robin. Classy lady.x
Look at this lovely, amazing, intelligent woman; churning out analogies by using examples from art movements.. Love her
Robin Wright in Wonder Woman? I am IN!
She doesn't look 51! That was insensitive of him to bring up her age and ask her if it was hard for her to keep up with younger women...I was like wow
Robin Wright is queen!😍
I LOVE that she said little boys as well..
