Berlin Trailer: Watch Now the Anticipated Money Heist Spin-off Sequel

Berlin Trailer: Money Heist enthusiasts, rejoice! Netflix has lifted the veil on the highly anticipated prequel spin-off series, ‘Berlin,’ offering a detailed glimpse into the world of Andrés de Fonollosa, better known as Berlin. As a crucial figure in the original series, Berlin takes centre stage in this thrilling prequel, orchestrating a heist of epic proportions set against the backdrop of Paris. The Berlin trailer released on 29 November 2023, introduces a new crew, a prestigious target, and familiar faces from the original series, promising a gripping narrative filled with suspense and unexpected twists.

The Heist

Berlin’s latest heist unfolds in the heart of Paris, targeting Chez Vienot, Maison des Encheres—the city’s largest and most prestigious auction house. Unlike the signature Money Heist masks that became symbolic in the original series, the trailer intriguingly showcases an absence of such iconic disguises. This leaves fans speculating about the narrative direction, signalling that ‘Berlin’ might diverge from the resistance-based, Robin Hood-style plot that characterized Money Heist. The emphasis seems to shift towards an anti-hero narrative, laden with suspense and moral ambiguity.

The Crew

Accompanying Berlin on this adrenaline-fueled adventure is a diverse and ruthless crew. Comprising Keila (Michelle Jenner), Cameron (Begoña Vargas), Damián (Tristán Ulloa), Bruce (Joel Sánchez), and Roi (Julio Peña), this eclectic group promises to bring a new dynamic to the world of heists. The absence of a terminal illness haunting Berlin’s mind, as seen in the original series, suggests a more formidable and assertive character ready to execute the heist with precision—even if it involves uncomfortable compromises and brutal tactics.

Familiar Faces

Adding to the excitement is the return of brilliant police detectives Alicia Sierra (Najwa Nimri) and Raquel Murillo (Itziar Ituño) from Spain. Their involvement suggests that Berlin’s heist has caught the attention of law enforcement, possibly due to its high stakes and international implications. The inclusion of these familiar characters adds depth to the narrative and raises questions about their role in thwarting Berlin’s meticulously planned scheme.

Plot Dynamics

Comparing the plot dynamics of ‘Berlin’ to Money Heist reveals intriguing differences. While Money Heist centred around morally neutral heists driven by resistance and socio-political motives, ‘Berlin’ appears poised to explore a more morally ambiguous and anti-heroic narrative. The absence of masks, symbolic of resistance in the original series, hints at a departure from revolutionary themes, focusing instead on the suspenseful plot that has garnered a cult following for the franchise.

Release Date

With its premiere slated for December 29, 2023, ‘Berlin’ promises to deliver an exhilarating experience for fans eagerly awaiting another chapter in the Money Heist universe. The prequel’s unique blend of characters, the high-stakes heist in Paris, and the departure from signature masks all point towards a narrative that is sure to captivate audiences worldwide.
