Played by Pedro Alonso, Berlin is the elder brother of The Professor and the second-in-command of the robbery at the Royal Mint of Spain. Despite being a charmer, he is a sociopath who is also terminally ill. So, when he decides to the character decides to sacrifice his life to save his fellow heist members, one can't help but shed tears.
In the video titled Berlin Forever – One Story Away, fans from France, Canada, South Korea, USA, UAE, Italy, South Africa, Japan among others share how they reacted to Berlin’s last moments. Some went on to say it is necessary for a man like Berlin to lead a team of bank robbers, others added, “Berlin is trying to find himself even in his afterlife.”
The video ends with fans singing the show’s theme song Bella Ciao.
At the end of season two, the gang, with the stolen money, tries to escape the Royal Mint of Spain through the tunnel they had created. And after escorting all the members, Berlin realised he had to stay back to stop the cops from getting into the tunnel.
Even though The Professor kept pleading him to flee, Berlin asked Helsinki to blow up the tunnel and stood against the cops, ultimately giving up his own life.
And although Berlin died in the show's second season, audience demands provoked the makers to reprise him in the subsequent seasons with flashbacks.
Thus, Pedro Alonso is currently shooting for the fifth and final season of Money Heist that is expected to premiere on Netflix next year.
