MONEY HEIST season 5 could be going ahead with fans of the hit Spanish series eager for another series. But has La Casa de Papel part 5 been confirmed?
Money Heist has only just returned for its fourth season on Netflix but fans are already keen to know about whether the series, also known as La Casa de Papel, will be returning once again. Express.co.uk has rounded up everything you need to know about the fifth installment of the show, including whether it has been confirmed and what could happen next.
Will there be another series of Money Heist on Netflix?
Spanish series Money Heist has just returned with eight new episodes on Netflix as viewers find out what happened to the major characters.
The highly-anticipated fourth part of La Casa de Papel landed on the streaming platform on April 3 in full.
However, viewers already binging the show and are desperate to know whether season five has been confirmed yet.
Netflix has not yet made an official announcement about the renewal of the popular drama.
This is because the streaming giant often waits approximately a month before it makes a decision.
But given the huge popularity of the Spanish series across the world, it seems likely Netflix will want to continue the Money Heist for another outing.
There have also been a number of hints from the creators of the show about its potential future.
Speaking to ABC in Spain, creator Alex Pina revealed they cannot confirm if they are thinking about a part five yet, telling the publication: “Someone knows there will be, but not us.”

This follows on from the publication also reporting back in October 2019 how the fifth season had been confirmed and production was set to begin.
The future of the series was also hinted back in 2018 in an interview with Spanish publication Bluper.
Director of international original content for Spain and Latin America at Netflix Paco Ramos revealed future seasons are planned “if it goes well.”
Express.co.uk will keep viewers up to date with any developments about the future of the show on Netflix.
When will Money Heist season 5 be released?
As it has not been officially announced by Netflix, there is no release date yet for another series.
However, viewers could be waiting a little while given how filming across the world has been postponed due to the outbreak of coronavirus COVID-19.
Looking at the previous release dates gives some indications about when it could be expected.
So far, the first and second season were filmed together, as were the third and fourth.
But the gap between the two airing was 20 months, which could mean viewers may not see more of the show until late 2021 or early 2022.
What will happen in Money Heist season 5?
WARNING: This section contains major spoilers for the end of Money Heist part 4
The fourth instalment of Money Heist followed on from part three as the team planned their escape from the Bank of Spain.
Alongside this, throughout the season, viewers watched as the team tried to rescue Lisbon (played by Itziar Ituño) and Nairobi (Alba Flores) after they had been captured.
All the while, they were attempting to fend off the threat which former hostage Gandia (José Manuel Poga) poses to them.
This all came to a dramatic end in the season finale when Lisbon was rescued while Alicia Sierra (Najwa Nimri) held a gun to the professor’s (Álvaro Morte) head in the final moments.
If season five is to happen, it seems likely it will pick up again from this brutal conclusion as viewers find out the professor’s fate.
As soon as any storyline details have been revealed, Express.co.uk will update this article.
Money Heist part 4 is currently available to stream on Netflix.
