What is the original Spanish title of Money Heist?

The story behind the answer

The original Spanish title of Money Heist is La casa de papel.

The series was created by Álex Pina and first aired in Spain on Antena 3 in 2017. Its story follows a group of robbers recruited by the Professor for heists targeting Spain’s Royal Mint and Bank of Spain.

Netflix acquired international distribution rights, reorganized the original episodes, and renamed the show Money Heist for English-speaking audiences. That change is why viewers may know the same Spanish-language series by two different titles.

La casa de papel literally means “The House of Paper.” It should not be confused with Vis a vis, another Spanish crime drama, or with the Korean adaptation Money Heist: Korea – Joint Economic Area.
