Money Heist fans have been eagerly awaiting any news about the upcoming season from the cast and crew of the show. Now Professor star Alvaro Morte has seemingly confirmed filming has begun on the new series of La Casa de Papel.

Has filming on Money Heist season 5 started?

The fourth season of Money Heist ended on a dramatic cliffhanger, which left the Professor’s fate in the balance.

Viewers will remember how after he had helped smuggle Lisbon (played by Itziar Ituño) back into the Bank of Spain, he was surprised by an unwanted guest.

Alicia Sierra (Najwa Nimri) appeared at his hideout before holding a gun to his head and saying “checkmate.”

The screen then cut to black, which left viewers devastated about what might happen next to the Professor.

Looking at social media, it seems it also wasn’t just the fans who were excited about the show returning.

Netflix Spain also posted below Morte’s image: “Tell us that the Professor has a plan to get us out of this 2020.”

The start of the new season has been teased for a few weeks now with many of the cast posting on Instagram about their imminent return.
