Money Heist creators Esther Martínez Lobato and Álex Pina have co-written the first season, comprising eight episodes. They were joined by David Oliva and David Berrocal. Albert Pintó, Barrocal, and Geoffrey Cowper are directing them.
THR also revealed that the series will start filming in Paris on October 3 and will be shot in the French capital and Madrid.
Fans would remember that Berlin was killed off in Money Heist season 2. However, due to the demand for the character, the makers brought him back via flashbacks in the following seasons before giving the character a separate show.
