What to expect from Money Heist Season 5

Warning: spoilers for La Casa De Papel / Money Heist part 4 and previous seasons ahead!

Let's quickly recap the events of Part 4 and how it ended. The heist is still on, with Lisbon now joining the rest of the gang at the Bank of Spain.

The biggest challenge facing the gang is that the professor is now the one caught in the act. With a gun for him, the series goes to the credits with a new interpretation of Bella Caio.

There have been a lot of theories about Alicia now going rogue. Some on Reddit think her pregnancy is fake and others even think she's Berlin's ex-wife who was introduced in the fourth season.

Back at the bank, the gang must now work on the final stages of the heist and begin their escape. We know that the team continues downstairs to smelt the gold into small balls for extraction.

Of course, the big question that will arise if the team manages to escape is whether they can keep their freedom, unlike last time of course. Is it even possible for them to live a normal life? After all, all of their identities are out in the open.

Now onto spoiler tips for the upcoming finale season.

First, Berlin is set to return with numerous posts from the actor and Vancouver Media teasing his comeback. Of course, most of his Money Heist appearances since Part 2 have been flashbacks, suggesting that will carry over into the final season.

When will Money Heist season 5 release on Netflix?

Our best guess is that it won't be available on Netflix until at least summer 2021. There have been rumors surrounding possible release dates. The most implausible seems to be January 2021, but other rumors have been floated for April 2021.

All we know is that the series was recently confirmed as part of Netflix's extensive 2021 lineup.
