Filming for the second season of Berlin has officially begun. It was last February 2024 when the streaming platform announced the renewal of the La Casa de Papel spinoff for a second season and now we know that the series is already in the recording phase. After its debut on Netflix, last December 29, 2023, with 8 episodes that told the story of one of the serial characters most loved by the public, the thief from the Professor’s Gang played by Pedro Alonso, the streaming platform decided to focus on more on this successful series that has already entered everyone’s hearts. A pre-announced but not obvious success for a spin-off that has managed to impose its own identity while maintaining a link with the original series from which it draws inspiration. And just two months after its launch, Netflix has decided to continue focusing on this heist series which has been particularly appreciated by fans of Money Heist and beyond. But what do we know, to date, about Berlin 2? What can we expect from the plot of the new episodes and who will return to the cast? Let’s find out together.
