Netflix has just dropped a teaser for the final part of La Casa de Papel, volume 2 of Part 5.
In the teaser, Alvaro Morte’s The Professor can be heard reassuring the members of La Banda: “In the last few hours, I have lost some very important people, and I am not going to let anyone else die for this heist”,
In the last volume, (HUGE SPOILER) Tokyo, played by Ursula Corbero, died, with the enemy still inside the Bank of Spain and closing in on the heist members.
Watch here:
The final five episode will drop on December 3 across the world, making the end of the heist and the end of the phenomenon series.
Esquire Middle East spoke to the creator of the show, Alex Pina, about writing the final episode, for which he went through 33 drafts.
“We did have an idea of how we were going to continue. Usually at the start, what we know is the end. But in the case of the fifth part, what happened in the final chapters is that what we had designed didn’t really work and we had to radically change the last chapter; in other words, we changed everything we had in mind about how the robbery ended because it was not working for us. It took 33 versions to do it,” Pina told Esquire Middle East.
“In that critical moment, after five parts and two robberies of more than two thousand minutes of fiction, we faced the fact that the story that we wanted to tell was not working. And that’s the reason why in the end we had to do a lot of versions and changed everything. Generally, we write as we record so many times we know where the characters go, their arcs and we know the ending. But we write everything else on the spot, we discuss it as we go, and as we see how the series is turning out in post-production.”
