Money Heist Season 5 Trailer Has Dropped

When we last saw the gang at the end of season four, viewers were reeling from a serious upping in the pace, with the gang trapped in the national bank in a Butch Cassidy-style stand-off with the army.

The official synopsis for season five says: "The gang has been shut in the Bank of Spain for over 100 hours.

"They have managed to rescue Lisbon, but their darkest moment is upon them after losing one of their own.

"The Professor has been captured by Sierra and, for the first time, doesn't have an escape plan. Just when it seems like nothing else could go wrong, an enemy comes on the scene that is much more powerful than any they've faced: the army.

"The end of the greatest heist in history is approaching, and what began as a robbery will turn into a war."

The show's creator, Álex Pina, recently promised us that the final season would go out with a bang, claiming it was 'the most epic part of all the parts we've shot'.

"We are moving from a chess game - a mere intellectual strategy - to a war strategy: attack and contention.

"We always try that our opponents be charismatic, intelligent, shiny. In this case, in pure war film genre, we also look for characters whose intelligence can measure up against The Professor's," he added.

"Adrenaline is within Money Heist's DNA. Every thirty seconds things take place and disrupt the characters, a turn of the screw to the action.

"The adrenaline mixed with feelings arising from absolutely complex, magnetic, unforeseeable characters will continue until the end of the heist to the Bank of Spain.

"However, the gang will now be pushed into irreversible situations, into a wild war: it is the most epic part of all the parts we've shot."

Volume one of Money Heist season five will land on 3 September 2021 while volume two will be with us on 3 December.
