Ace of the pack! House Of Cards star Kate Mara sizzles in her underwear for racy GQ shoot ahead of season 2 Valentine's
Day premiere
|
On the hit show House of Cards, 30-year-old Kate Mara plays Zoe Barnes, an ambitious journalist who leaves little to the political imagination on the pages of the Washington Herald newspaper.
But on the pages of GQ's March issue, Mara reveals a whole lot more, seductively eyeing the camera in her underwear as Netflix prepares to debut Season 2 of House of Cards on Friday.
In contrast with her casually-fashioned character, Mara is sexily done-up in the shoot, her deep blonde hair fluffed up against the chair.

A fluffy, loose-fitting sweater is the most that covers Mara, draping off of her right shoulder and revealing just a bit of her bra.
A deep-hued eyeshadow playfully teases her hazel eyes, and a light dusting of pink blush covers her cheeks.
In the revealing photograph, Mara teases the camera with one leg daintly tucked over the seat, and one hand gripping the edge of the plush, pink chair.
Her feet are decked out in strappy sky-blue high heels, and a soft, grey blanket appears to be kicked off just beside her feet.
And true to her ever-curious, intellectual character, Mara holds an opened book just beside her.
In the GQ interview, Mara reveals she has yet to see season two of the hotly anticipated political drama.

'Last year, before season one came out, I had seen all the episodes; this year I haven't, so I'm just as excited to watch it like anyone else,' Mara admits to the magazine.
Kate, the sister of 28-year-old Social Network actress Rooney Mara, has proven to be a formidable acting threat as the captivating blogger who trades sexual favors with a Congressman in exchange for political information on House of Cards.
Kate revealed to the magazine she enjoys speaking with younger sister Rooney about acting, and has yet to tire of conversations concerning the family business.
'Oh no, talking about acting isn't like, 'Ugh, God, we have to talk about acting, how boring!' It's like a passion. It's not, you know, some burden. Of course we do,' Mara explained to the magazine.
