The digital platform didn’t give out many details of the spinoff, but the Berlin character is the second-in-command of the Royal Mint of Spain heist and also planned the Bank of Spain heist, which he shared with The Professor and Palermo.

The streamer also debuted the final trailer for La Casa de Papel (Money Heist) Part 5: Volume 2, which premieres globally on December 3.

As previously reported, the second half of the fifth -- and final -- season is set to launch around the world on Friday, December 3.

It will be a bittersweet conclusion, for sure, but after years of high-octane drama, it's time to give the surviving members of the team a much-needed rest.

Five episodes remain, and they mark the end of the heist, and after the way the first half of the season concluded, well, it's going to be a tough watch.

"The gang has been shut in the Bank of Spain for over 100 hours," reads the logline for Season 5.

"They have managed to rescue Lisbon, but their darkest moment is upon them after losing one of their own."

The rallying cries of the Italian anti-fascist song “Bella ciao” from The Professor’s (Álvaro Morte) gang of endearing city-named criminals will soon no longer be heard from the halls of the Bank of Spain. Álex Pina’s “Money Heist,” also known as “La Casa de Papel,” one of Netflix’s most-streamed Spanish-language shows, will reach its conclusion in two parts by the end of this year.

But while the series will come to an end, “it isn’t the end of the robbery at the Bank of Spain,” executive producer and director Jesús Colmenar said during the Television Critics Assn. press tour panel for the show on Aug. 19.

Colmenar, who was joined by Morte and Úrsula Corberó, discussed the “biggest and most thrilling” season, with Colmenar noting, “We have put the final stops in there.”

One important stop came in the fourth season, when fan-favorite character Nairobi (Alba Flores) was killed off.

The Professor (Álvaro Morte) has been captured by inspector Sierra (Najwa Nimri) and, for the first time, doesn’t have an escape plan. However, that’s not the only problem because now the army is coming.

In the trailer, which you can watch below, Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó) describes the 100 hours they have spent shut in the Bank of Spain as feeling like 100 years. Also, the Professor reveals the stormwater tank has been found and Colonel Tamayo (Fernando Cayo) assembles an army to go into the Bank of Spain.

Madrid — The third part of “La Casa de Papel” (“Money Heist”), Netflix’s most-watched non-English language show, is entering production and has added new cast. Netflix dropped a first video on Thursday celebrating the occasion.

Produced directly by Netflix and Vancouver Media, the Madrid-based shingle of series creators Alex Pina and Esther Martínez Lobato, the third part of “La casa de papel” was originally announced in April. Very little was known then about its plot apart from that “the professor will plan new heists, revealed in 2019,” Netflix said, and that much of the original key cast would return.

“The band is back. This time it will be more than a heist and, with new members, the stakes are raised,” Netflix announced Thursday.

Set to the music of “Bella Ciao,” the new video, however, hints more at Part 3 characters than its events, as Parts I and 2 actors, led by Alvaro Morte...
