"Babylon Berlin V" sets the stage for a final showdown

Berlin, 24 February 2025. The final "action": Cameras are rolling for the final season of Beta's internationally acclaimed hit series Babylon Berlin. The first picture of season five teases Volker Bruch's (Generation War) Gereon, set to reunite with Liv Lisa Fries' (Freud) Charlotte for a final investigation, driven by a glimpse of hope to avoid Germany's darkest period. The writer/director trio of Henk Handloegten, Achim von Borries and Tom Tykwer adapted the scripts for the last eight episodes of the global hit series from Volker Kutscher's fifth novel The March Fallen.

Tom Tykwer, Henk Handloegten & Achim von Borries share their thoughts on the final season: "Babylon Berlin V will be phenomenal. We are working non-stop to make the new season as spectacular as possible in terms of the look, locations and one of the most integral parts of the series: the music. Nightclubs, Carnival and the changes throughout society are the base for a soundtrack that will set the new season apart. We put a magnifying glass on the five weeks at the beginning of 1933, which will turn the country upside down and find an ending the series and, most importantly, its fans deserve."

Berlin, January 30, 1933: Adolf Hitler becomes Reich Chancellor. As the end of the Weimar Republic looms, the darkest chapter in German history begins. On March 5, 1933, new elections will give Hitler's party complete power. But in these five weeks preceding the election, every single person in Germany is faced with difficult decisions: to adapt, to risk open opposition, or to flee. And while Gereon disappears from the face of the earth, Charlotte digs deep into a mysterious case of a series of murders of former front-line soldiers. There are growing signs that there is a direct link to Gereon's past - and that of the new Reich Chancellor...

Babylon Berlin has evolved into a global sensation over the previously released four seasons gathering audiences from all over the world in front of the screen. The series has collected numerous awards, among them the inaugural European Achievement in Fiction Series Award at the European Film Awards, four German Television Awards, the Grand Prize at the Seoul International Drama Awards, the Austrian Television Award ROMY as "TV Event of the Year", the Premios Ondas in Spain, as well as the Magnolia Award of the Shanghai TV Festival, the most important TV festival in Asia, and many more.

Beta Film has sold the series to more than 140 territories, which celebrated a sweeping success all over the world with more than 100 million digital views on Germany's ARD Mediathek alone. Praised by international media as "One of the best things ever in long-form television" (THE WALL STREET JOURNAL"), "fabulous and stunning" (THE GUARDIAN), "dark, flashy, and addictive" (NPR), and "the most bingeable new drama since 'The Crown'"(VOGUE), the series has turned into the epitome of high-end drama made in Germany with an immense international impact.

Babylon Berlin is a production of X-Filme Creative Pool in co-production with ARD Degeto, SWR, WDR, Radio Bremen and Beta Film in collaboration with RBB, funded by Film- und Medienstiftung NRW, Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg as well as the German Motion Picture Fund. Babylon Berlin is co-produced by Christoph Pellander and Carolin Haasis (ARD Degeto), Manfred Hattendorf and Monika Denisch (SWR), as well as Alexander Bickel and Caren Toennissen-Brand (WDR). Executive producers for X-Filme are Stefan Arndt, Uwe Schott, and Michael Polle, co-producers for Beta Film are Jan Mojto, Dirk Schürhoff, and Moritz Herzogenberg.
