When it first appeared on the Muhteşem Yüzyıl 11 years ago, it attracted great attention. Muhteşem Yüzyıl, a very successful period drama, hosted many famous actors. Two of them, Aras Bulut İynemli and Mehmet Günsür, are coming together in a new series. But this time they will establish the Republic.
The Muhteşem Yüzyıl, which was first broadcast on Show TV and then on Star TV, affected not only Turkey but the whole world. In the series, the life of Kanuni Sultan Süleyman and the story of his children were told.
In the series, where Suleiman the Magnificent was played by Halit Ergenç, Mehmet Günsür played the son of Kanuni, Mustafa, who was from Mahidevran, and Aras Bulut İynemli played Bayezid, who was from Hürrem Sultan. Both actors gave a great performance in the series.
The two actors are now reuniting in a new drama. However, this time in a series that will tell not the Ottoman period, but the first years of the Republic. Aras Bulut İynemli and Mehmet Günsür will come together in the Atatürk series that Lanistar Media will shoot for Disney Plus.
Aras Bulut İynemli will portray Mustafa Kemal Atatürk in the series, which preparations began long ago. No statement was made about the role that Mehmet Günsür will play.
The shooting of the series will begin towards the summer months and will meet with the audience on the Disney Plus screen in 2023, the 100th anniversary of the founding of our Republic. Mehmet Ada Öztekin will be the director of the series, which will be shot for two seasons from six episodes.
