Remember Money Heist? The Spanish series became a global phenomenon following its Netflix premiere in late 2017. But while The Professor and his acolytes may have pulled off their final heist, the show’s universe is still expanding.
Most recently, with Berlin and the Lady with an Ermine, the second season of Money Heist prequel series Berlin. With 6.2 million views this week, it’s currently the most-watched non-English show on Netflix, as well as the #1 show in 14 countries. Is another follow-up already in the cards?
Berlin and the Lady with an Ermine Season 2 Release Date
At the time of writing, there’s no official news about a potential Berlin and the Lady with an Ermine season 2. More exactly, there’s no news on Berlin season 3, since each season has its own title.
Still, that doesn’t mean a sequel isn’t happening. The streaming service sometimes waits to assess viewership before making a decision. Berlin continues to be a popular character, so you never know.
As long as Netflix gives the green light, new episodes could arrive in a couple of years.

What Is Berlin and the Lady with an Ermine About?
Let’s start with a quick recap. In Money Heist, a criminal mastermind called “The Professor” assembles a group of thieves named after cities to carry out a massive heist on the Royal Mint of Spain.
One of them is Berlin, who stood out as a fan favourite, despite being arrogant and morally grey. As a result, he got his own prequel series, which is set years before the events of Money Heist.
The first Berlin installment focused on an earlier heist in Paris involving $44 million worth of royal jewels. In Berlin and the Lady with an Ermine, the titular character reunites his crew for an elaborate con centered around a famous Leonardo da Vinci’s painting.
However, the painting is only part of the plan. After the wealthy Duke of Málaga attempts to manipulate Berlin into stealing the artwork for him, Berlin decides to retaliate by targeting the duke’s secret fortune instead. The mission spirals into a dangerous (and intoxicating) mix of deception, romance, revenge, and betrayal.
While there’s no news on Berlin and the Lady with an Ermine season 2 as of yet, this second Berlin installment tells a complete story. Any follow-up would likely focus on another daring heist. We’re sure the character’s past can still provide plenty of exciting material.
