Netflix has great news for subscribers. A new series, which was highly anticipated and which was a huge success, will return “soon”.
Netflix already has a number of hits under its belt, but some are definitely bigger than others. In 2017, the platform bet on the right horse with La Casa de papel. A Spanish series where we follow eight thieves who will challenge themselves to rob the Royal House of the Spanish Mint. It’s one of the most popular shows and has even had a Korean remake. But the exploitation of the phenomenon does not stop there and the firm with the red N has an announcement to make.
La Casa de papel really doesn’t want to leave Netflix
With millions of hours of viewing on the clock, it was obvious that Netflix was going to try to exploit the La Casa de papel vein. This is why the SVOD platform launched a spin-off in 2023: Berlin. A currently available series that is a prequel to the original show. And as its name suggests, it highlights the character played by Pedro Alonso. When it was released, it only took a few hours for it to climb into the top of the most watched programs. Without forcing. The Berlin series reached the top 10 in 91 countries and is in ninth place among the most viewed non-English-speaking shows in Netflix history.
You probably see the announcement coming from miles away, but yes, the firm has renewed Berlin for a season 2. “Berlin and his gang will return to Netflix with a second season. The iconic character played by Pedro Alonso will be back with a new heist and even more love ». New episodes arriving “soon” according to Netflix, but be careful. Production won’t start until 2025, so broadcast wouldn’t happen before then, at best. Even
Only two things can make up for a bad day: love and a multimillion-dollar jackpot. This is what fueled Berlin during his best years, when he did not know that he was ill and that he had not yet allowed himself to be trapped like a rat in the Royal House of Spanish Mint. He is preparing one of his most extraordinary heists: making 44 million jewels disappear with a sleight of hand. To achieve this, he will get help from one of the three gangs with whom he usually carries out his robberies.
