Netflix has officially introduced the cast of Berlin, the upcoming spinoff series of La Casa de Papel or Money Heist. At a recent press conference, the lead actor Pedro Alonso was joined by his co-stars and the show’s creators to finally reveal what the new series will be about, teasing a romantic spin on the series.

“Berlin’s character has the most sparkling personality to place it in another universe,” stated creators Esther Martínez Lobato and Álex Pina. “We loved the idea of introducing a new gang around Berlin in a completely different emotional state.”
Pina has also described the new series as “a trip through the golden age of the character, when he robbed around Europe crazy in love.” Furthermore, the co-creator teased that it will be “full of white-collar crimes, tension, travel, romance and, most interestingly, a sense of humor.”
In the prequel, the cunningly dangerous Berlin is joined by a different crew including the philanthropic professor Damián (Tristán Ulloa); the kamikaze who lives a risky life, Cameron (Begoña Vargas); Berlin’s faithful squire Roi (Julio Peña Fernández), and the relentless man of action Bruce (Joel Sánchez). Together, the gang pulls off a heist in Paris.

To further tease the series, Pedro Alonso also recited the opening of the script: “There are only ten things that can turn a terrible day into a wonderful one. The first is love. And the truth, that wasn’t the case. My third wife had just left me…The second is a spoil of more than ten million euros. But it wasn’t the case either. We were going to steal the link to a much bigger heist, today’s was easy. But if you have a bad day, you can end up bringing a miserable to his knees and aiming for his head.”
Berlin or Andrés de Fonollosa acts as a brother and close confidant to the Professor in Money Heist, and served as the leader of the crew from inside the Mint of Spain. Despite his intelligence and charm, Berlin had been in conflict with his fellow thieves due to his psychopathic tendencies. But while he had his share of villainy throughout the series, Berlin’s complexities and his final act of redemption made the character a fan favorite from the franchise.
Berlin is created by Pina and Lobato, with its eight episodes to be directed by Albert Pintó, David Barrocal, and Geoffrey Cowper. The series begins shooting on October 3 in Paris.

This week, Olivia Wilde’s psychological thriller Don’t Worry Darling is dropping in Philippine cinemas!
Set in the ’50s, the film stars Florence Pugh and Harry Styles as the couple Alice and Jack who live in the idealized community of Victory, which is owned by a mysterious company.
Home to the families of the men who work for the company’s top-secret project, Victory is a tight-knit utopia where the people’s daily lives are influenced by the CEO, Frank (Chris Pine), who also serves as a life coach for the community. But when Alice begins to see cracks in their idyllic life, she sets out to discover the truth behind Victory and its sinister secrets.
Before Don’t Worry Darling hits theaters this week, we’ve rounded up a few facts about the movie from behind the scenes. Check them out below.
1. Olivia Wilde is back in the director’s chair.
Before being credited as a director, Olivia Wilde is an actress who starred in movies like The Lazarus Effect and TRON: Legacy. She made her directorial debut in 2019 with the teen comedy flick Booksmart, making Don’t Worry Darling her second feature film as the director. Wilde also stars in the thriller as Bunny, Alice’s best friend.

2. There were multiple bidders for Wilde’s script.
According to Deadline, there were 15 to 18 bidders who wanted to secure Wilde’s script with budgets of around $20M. Included in the lineup of studios that joined the bidding war were Netflix, MGM, Village Roadshow Pictures, Apple, and Universal-based Blumhouse. In the end, New Line Cinema, known for The Conjuring, IT, and the Final Destination franchises secured the rights for the film.
3. Shia Labeouf almost starred as Jack.
Harry Styles was initially meant to play Jack, but due to conflicts with his touring schedule, the role almost landed on Shia Labeouf of Transformers fame. But in an interview with Variety, Wilde said she let go of Labeouf because his process “seems to require a combative energy, and I don’t personally believe that is conducive to the best performances.”
Meanwhile, Labeouf denied this in an email to Variety, saying the reason was the lack of rehearsal time. In the end, Styles was cast again to play the lead role opposite Pugh.

4. Florence Pugh on her sex scenes with Harry Styles in the trailer.
In the same interview, director Wilde had been vocal about the importance of depicting female pleasure in sex scenes between a heterosexual couple, because “in hetero sex scenes in film, the focus on men as the recipients of pleasure is almost ubiquitous.”
But with the crowd’s attention being directed to the sex scenes between Pugh and Styles when the trailer dropped, Pugh has this to say in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar: “When it’s reduced to your sex scenes, or to watch the most famous man in the world go down on someone, it’s not why we do it. It’s not why I’m in this industry. Obviously, the nature of hiring the most famous pop star in the world, you’re going to have conversations like that. That’s just not what I’m going to be discussing because [this movie is] bigger and better than that. And the people who made it are bigger and better than that.”
5. Harry Styles created Alice’s “trigger song” in just 5 minutes.
In the same interview between Variety and director Wilde, the latter revealed that the seemingly romantic yet creepy song featured in the film was written by Harry Styles. In the script, it was only referred to as Alice’s “trigger song” and when the singer and actor asked about it, Wilde revealed to him that there was no specific song yet. Styles then offered to pen it himself.
“Five minutes later, he sent me a demo from his piano, and it was what ended up in the film. He called me and said, ‘What about this?’ And I was like, ‘Yeah, that’s it. That’s it. And that’s really insane that you did that in five minutes’,” said Wilde.
