Washington, May 10

Netflix has officially confirmed that the world of 'Money Heist' is continuing to expand, nearly five years after the original series concluded its acclaimed five-season run in 2021.

On Sunday, the streaming platform released a new teaser titled "The world of 'Money Heist' continues", signalling that the franchise remains active beyond its existing spin-offs and adaptations.

The announcement was amplified through the official La Casa de Papel Instagram account, which shared a red-and-black themed promotional post carrying the message:

"El Bella Ciao SIGUE sonando. El universo de 'La casa de papel' continua." Translated into English, the statement reads: "Bella Ciao is STILL playing. The world of 'Money Heist' continues."

The latest reveal comes ahead of the release of Berlin and the Lady with an Ermine, the second season of the Pedro Alonso-led prequel series Berlin. The new instalment is scheduled to premiere globally on May 15, 2026.

The franchise has emerged as one of Netflix's most-watched non-English language series.

Speculation around future instalments continues, including reports of possible police-focused spin-offs or a continuation involving the Professor, though no official confirmation has been issued by Netflix.

Originally created by Alex Pina, 'Money Heist' became one of the most successful international series in streaming history, turning its red jumpsuits, Dali masks and the anthem "Bella Ciao" into globally recognised pop culture symbols.

Honestly, I feel they're milking it too much. The original series had a perfect ending with the Professor and Lisbon. Now it feels like typical Bollywood-style franchise extension. Quality over quantity, please. 🙏

As someone who watched the original Spanish version with subtitles before it became a global hit, I'm cautiously optimistic. Berlin was a complex character — his prequel could add depth. But please, no forced romantic subplots like in later seasons. Keep it tight.

Great news! Money Heist was one of the first international shows that got me hooked on non-English content. The Dali masks and red jumpsuits are iconic. Hope the new chapter keeps that same energy but brings fresh storytelling.

Bella Ciao forever! 🇮🇹 The way this series brought global attention to Italian resistance music is amazing. Though I'm a bit skeptical about another spin-off — they already did Berlin. A police-focused series could be interesting though, showing the other side of the heists.

I gave up after season 3 when the writing got repetitive. The heist formula became predictable: plan, execute, get caught, escape, repeat. Maybe this new chapter will surprise us, but I'm not holding my breath.
