Were we surprised to discover that Elite Would season 6 come out at the end of the year? Yes, because the new seasons of Elite They are normally published once a year. Elite Season 5 was released earlier this year, so we thought season 6 would be released sometime next year. However, we are not complaining.

spoilers from Elite season 5 ahead!
If you recall, season five ends with Samuel possibly dying after he hits his head hard on the concrete during his fight with Benjamin by the pool. He loses consciousness while his friends Rebbe and Omar hold him up. This led viewers to believe that Samuel might be dead. However, a body bag was never shown, nor was a funeral. So, there was hope that Samuel would pull through and that he would be in Elite season 6
Now, with the full cast list for season six announced and the synopsis revealed, we have confirmation as to whether or not Samuel will be in. Elite season 6 and if he is alive.
Will Samuel be in Elite Season 6?
Unfortunately, Samuel will not be in the upcoming sixth season. Netflix’s press release for Elite season 6 reveals Samuel’s fate in the official synopsis. According to TVLine, the synopsis reads: “After Samuel’s death, Las Encinas faces a new school year trying to get a facelift by covering up the disasters of the past. However, the conflict in its classrooms is systemic: racism, sexism, domestic abuse or LGTBI-phobia are just some of the difficult issues that will run through the corridors of the prestigious institution this season. If those running the system don’t take active steps to address these issues, it will have to be the students themselves.”
Unfortunately, it appears that Samuel succumbed to his injuries. It’s unclear how Samuel’s death will be addressed in season six, but we do know it will affect those closest to him.

We hate to break any more bad news to fans of the series, but no more characters will be returning. Omar (Omar Ayuso), Rebeka (Claudia Salas) and Cayetana (Georgina Amorós) will not be in the sixth season. They were notably absent from the returning cast list in the press release.

Although it is sad that Rebeka, Omar and Cayetana will not be in Elite season 6, not surprising at all. Their storylines were pretty much over by season 5. And with Samuel gone, they probably wouldn’t want anything to do with Las Encinas and everyone else.
