House of Cards bids farewell to its lead creator with fourth season set to premier in 5 weeks.

A statement by Netflix from Thursday states:

"Prior to its fourth-season premiere, Netflix and Media Rights Capital are thrilled to announce that House of Cards will return for a fifth season in 2017. Concurrent with the renewal, creator and showrunner Beau Willimon is departing the critically acclaimed series. Netflix and MRC owe a tremendous debt of gratitude to Beau Willimon for his strong narrative vision for House of Cards over the show’s first four seasons. As an Academy Award-nominated writer, he made his first foray into television and built a riveting and critically acclaimed series, establishing his place in TV history. The producers, cast and crew join us in wishing Beau the best in his next creative adventure."

So, as it turns out there is a good and a bad news for the fans of Netflix’s original series. On a brighter side House of Cards has been renewed for a fifth season set to premier in 2017 but, unfortunately, the man who made the TV show what it is today will not be involved with it anymore; creatively or otherwise. According to ‘a well-placed source’ of Hollywood Reporter series lead creator and show runner, Beau Willimon, will not return to script the fifth season of acclaimed political drama. Willimon who previously co-wrote the Golden Globe winning screenplay Ides of March was at the helm of all day-to-day and creative affairs of the show for 4 consecutive seasons. However, as reported the playwright will now be focusing on writing (and maybe producing) an original play. 

"After five years and four seasons, it's time for me to move on to new endeavors, but I'm supremely proud of what we've built together, wish the show much continued success, and leave it in the hands of a very capable team."  -  added Beau Willimon. 

Even though, no further information is available about his next project but we have high hopes and strong anticipation considering his much-admired work on TV and cinema. The announcement itself comes at a time when fans were eagerly waiting for the premier of fourth season. A comparatively slower story progression and weaker character development resulted in lackluster reviews of the third season but continuous increase in TV ratings and viewership means that stakes for the March 4th premier are high as ever. 
With only 5 weeks left before the new season hits Netflix the marketing minds behind the show have successfully generated excitement and exhilaration among fans with a genius-ly crafted Underwood 2016 campaign featuring thrilling teaser trailers and posters. Have a look.

Last year Sony released the C5 Ultra a near bezel less phone with a premium design but was ultimately a mid ranger, this year we are here again reporting about the C6, another bezel less phone with a premium design. Image Source   The phone most likely will boast a 5.5 full HD screen, an Octa core Helio P10, 16 Gb internal storage, 3 or 2 Gb Ram and will of course support 4g LTE. The leaked pictures show a bezel less design which resembles the Z3 though it's not aluminium like the later. Image Source What do you think about the phone and it's design? And how it will fare against the other mid rangers.

Xperia C5 Ultra could be your dream bezel-less phone

By
last week Sony announced the near bezel-less C5 Ultra, now before we jump further you should know the whole bezel-less thing only applies to its side bezels the top and bottom ones are big while the top one is actually huge, we don't particularly find complete bezel-less phones easy to use but some people actually do so if less bezel size and more screen space is your forte than this phone might interest you, also note that the top bezel is large for a good reason it house's the 13 MP selfie camera . The C5 Ultra is set to launch on 14th august for $425 the price and availability could vary in other countries. C5 Ultra runs on a Mediatek 1.7 Ghz  Octa core procesor, offer's a 6" full 1080p screen, 13 MP camera both at the front and back, 2 GB Ram, 16 GB internal storage, SD card slot and a 2930 mah battery, all in a very sleek body which still is plastic though but looks good with the Xperia design language. Oh and colour options are mint green, black and white. ...
