In an interview with El Mundo, through Express UK, Javier said that they authored an irreversible death for Pedro Alonso’s character Berlin. 

“Even characters with such a negative charge like Berlin end up being somewhat redeemed and people have a brutal affection for them. So we get him back for this season. How were we going to give it up?” he said.

He went on to add that if they had known that there would be more seasons of Money Heist then they would have thought hard about killing Berlin. “It is that he died a lot. We killed him too much and there is no way to revive him,” he added.
