Berlin, Pedro Alonso's character in La Casa de Papel/Money Heist, is not a hero—far from it. A heartless bon vivant, Berlin is able to sing "Bella Ciao" as passionately as he commits acts of violence. Part madman, part leading man, Berlin is captivating precisely because he's so unpredictable.

Money Heist creator Álex Pina described Berlin's contradictions in an interview with Oprah Daily. "He’s a misogynist, a psychopath, egocentric, a narcissist, a delinquent, a rapist," Pina explained. "But still there are lots of people who adore him, because he values friendship, loyalty or fraternity."

Just as loved ones never really leave us, Berlin—real name: Andres de Fonollosa—never left Money Heist. After sacrificing himself so his crew could escape in season 2, and joining Money Heist's list of departed characters, Berlin returned in season 3 in flashback form. (Episode 2 is titled "Berlin's Wedding.") The character's influence is still dictating the show's path in unexpected ways, up to its fifth and final season, out September 13, 2021.

Here's what you need to know about Alonso, other than the fact that he plays La Casa de Papel's most charming supervillain.

Pedro Alonso is from Galicia, Spain.

He was born on June 21, 1972 in Vigo, a town on Spain's northwestern coast, right near Portugal. Currently, Alonso is 50 years old. In case you're wondering, he's a Gemini.

He's had a long career in Spanish movies and films.

Alonso studied at Madrid's Real Escuela Superior de Arte Dramático. His break-out year came in 1996, when he starred in three movies:Paranoia dixital, Alma Gitana, and Tengo una casa.

Since then, Alonso has been busy. From 2008-2015, Alonso was part of the long-running comedy Padre Caseres, the time-travel drama The Ministry of Time, the period drama Gran Hotel, and The Embassy, a one-season thriller.

Alonso prefers playing villains to heroes.

Alonso has a history of playing the bad guy—and he wouldn't have it any other way. According to an interview he did with El Pais, Alonso finds heroic roles too restrictive.

"Villains are often more interesting. A villain can do whatever he wants, and if you want to find the humanity in that character, you can," he said, in a quote we translated to English.

Alonso has a twin brother.

In an Instagram post for his 50th birthday, Alonso mentioned his twin brother, Paul. This means there's a Pedro Alonso lookalike in the world. Perhaps Money Heist, in true telenovela form, will introduce Berlin's long-lost twin.

He's in a relationship.

Alonso is dating Tatiana Djordjevic, a hypnotherapist whose talents Alonso praised on his Instagram. (Yes, Berlin's girlfriend on Money Heist is also named Tatiana.) "If you want to try a regression, from my experience, no doubt. Write to her for a session of work," he wrote on Instagram. While her Instagram is inactive, Djordjevic is a fixture on Alonso's page.

He's a dad.

Alonso's daughter, Uriel, was born in 1998, per an interview with La Nación.

And he can pull off a mustache.

We're just saying! He absolutely can. It's good information to know.

Alonso is also an artist.

Pedro Alonso can play a madman and can paint captivating abstract art. He clearly contains multitudes. He posts countless drawings and paintings on Instagram, all bursting with color.

Alonso often blends his two artistic passions together. According to an interview with Radionica, Alonso actually paints on his scripts to connect with his characters.

On social media, he also pays homage to other pop culture greats, ranging from Frankenstein's monster to Jack Nicholson, with paintings and long captions.

We have just one question: Where is Alonso's Money Heist-themedartwork?

What was Berlin's illness?

Will there be money for heist season 6?

Netflix has not yet decided when Berlin or Money Heist Season 6 will be available. However, we already know that in 2023 Berlin will be available on Netflix. Netflix tweeted the Spinoff and its following release year before Money Heist season 5 ended in December 2021.

Who is Berlin's girlfriend?

In the final minutes of part 2, Berlin sacrifices himself so that the gang can escape, dying under police fire.

Who is Berlin in season 3 of Money Heist?

Berlin - as played by Pedro Alonso - was one of the masterminds of both heists, though he often caused friction with the rest of the group due to his frequently amoral methods.
