Outside of Money Heist, the Spanish actor has appeared in Spanish-language shows like The Ministry of Time and Padre Casares.

Joining Alonso in the Berlin cast as his team of thieves is Michelle Jenner (Bird Box: Barcelona) as Keila, Tristán Ulloa (Warrior Nun) as Damián, Begoña Vargas (A Different View) as Cameron, Julio Peña Fernández (Through My Window) as Roi and Joel Sanchez, who is making his acting debut in the series.

The series will also feature Julien Paschal (One Year, One Night) as Polignac, their target. There are also going to be some Money Heist veterans, as IMDb lists Itziar Ituño, who played Raquel Murillo, and Najwa Nimri, who played Alicia Sierra, as part of the cast.

Money Heist: Berlin plot

Berlin is a prequel series, telling the story of a past heist Berlin pulled off in Paris before he became involved with the Money Heist crew. 

With Berlin believing only two things can turn around a bad day — love and a million dollar payday — he plans to acquire the latter by robbing $44 million dollars worth of jewels from a Paris auction house in one night. However, love also looks like it is going to have a role to play, as Berlin forms feelings for the ex-wife of Polignac.
