Speaking on the series, Álex Pina, who was already the creator of La Casa de Papelexplained: “We always sought for the protagonists to have a very complex personality. So I think almost all of our characters have a duality that we would love to see in a spinoff series. We could look at each of them in other contexts.”

What casting for Berlin?

Pedro Alonso returns to his role from Berlin where he excelled in the original series. Alongside him, we find Michelle Jenner (Julieta), Begoña Vargas (Alta Mar) and Tristán Ulloa (Narcos). Alicia Sierra (Najwa Nimri) and Raquel Murillo (Itziar Ituno) are also returning to Berlin and, although there has been no official confirmation, we can imagine that they will return to their respective characters.

Also note that Alex Pina reunites with his colleague Esther Martínez Lobato who wrote numerous episodes of the Spanish saga. So we only have a few weeks left to wait before the broadcast of Berlin. To wait, you can watch the Korean remake of the original creation: Money Heist: Korea which is also available on Netflix.
