Building on their introduction in Season 4, Will and Hannah Conway - played by Joel Kinnaman and Dominique McElligott respectively - continue to serve as the Underwoods' main political opponents for a large portion of Season 5.

Once the election is really, finally, definitely over though, Will concedes, curses out Frank for an insulting job offer, and that's the last we see of them. Have they just headed off to the political wilderness, or could they re-emerge in Season 6 to try and take down the Underwoods yet again?

There's not much scope for them to directly challenge the Underwoods themselves, but they could help other opponents in a new battle against them - or perhaps side with one of them against the other.
