The show has already killed Oslo. To bring the symmetry full circle, losing Helsinki would shatter the audience's hearts without destroying the tactical core of the team. He is too pure for this world, and in Money Heist , purity is a death sentence. Odds of dying: 70%
After the devastating cliffhanger of Season 4 (rest in peace, Nairobi), Season 5 promises to be a war zone. The Professor is captured, the army has stormed the bank, and everyone is running on empty. With the series creators promising an “epic” send-off, we have to face the music: the body count is going to be brutal.
Expect Palermo to sacrifice himself to save Helsinki (the man he secretly loves) or to execute a final, perfect plan that seals the gold’s escape. His death would be poetic: the architect who couldn't let go of Berlin finally building something worth dying for. Odds of dying: 60%
Bring your tissues. And maybe a red jumpsuit.
Palermo is brilliant, but he is also a liability. He betrayed the team, got Nairobi killed, and only rejoined because he hates Gandía more than he loves chaos. In Season 5, he will likely get a redemption arc—and redemption arcs end in coffins.
Creator Álex Pina loves tragic arcs. Tokyo has evolved from the reckless wild card to a reluctant leader. The ultimate redemption for a character like Tokyo isn’t retirement on a beach—it’s a sacrificial, explosive blaze of glory. If she dies, she will take an entire army with her. Expect her to be the "big death" of Part 1 of Season 5. Odds of dying: 80%
Manila was introduced as a tragic figure (her father, Moscow, died because of the heist). She hasn't had much screen time, which makes her expendable. In TV writing, minor characters in the final season exist for one reason: to raise the stakes without killing a major star. She will likely take a bullet meant for Denver or Stockholm. Odds of dying: 30%
