Robin Wright eyes Netflix's "House of Cards"

LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) - Robin Wright is in early negotiations to join Kevin Spacey in Netflix's first original series, "House of Cards."

The political thriller, based on the book and British miniseries of the same name, will stream exclusively to Netflix's 20 million subscribers in late 2012. Netflix has committed $100 million for 26 episodes of the drama, outbidding HBO, AMC and others for the series.

David Fincher is directing the pilot, and coincidentally directed Wright in the upcoming remake of "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo." "House of Cards" will be Wright's first TV series regular role since she played Kelly Capwell on the NBC soap "Santa Barbara" from 1984-88.
