Netflix has confirmed the release of its Spanish heist series ‘La Casa De Papel’ ( ‘Money Heist’) with a teaser and news of two volumes.
The much anticipated season five would be released in two volumes each containing five episodes.
Volume one would be released September 3 while volume two will follow three months after , on December 3, 2021.
Season five will follow the gang as they become trapped in Madrid’s Bank of Spain for more than four days. With Professor apprehended by Sierra, the group must figure out a fast escape plan or be doomed.
According to the show’s creator, Álex Pina, the ending twist is to fully explore the sides of the characters.
“When we began to write Part five in the midst of the pandemic, we felt that we had to change what was expected from the ten-episode season and used every tool we could to create the sensation of a season finale or series finale in the first volume itself,” Pina revealed.
“We decided to work in an extremely aggressive genre, putting The Gang on the ropes. In volume 2, we focus more on the emotional situation of the characters. It is a journey across their sentimental map that connects us directly to their departure.”
