Following Netflix, Disney Plus’s placing new project orders in the Turkish TV series industry and making special agreements with many famous names has started a new era in the industry. In this new era, it will no longer be possible for channels and producers to work on a project with every actor. Başak Gümülcinelioğlu emerged as one of the first victims of this newly established order.
According to the news on TV100, producer Mehmet Bozdağ parted ways with Başak Gümülcinelioğlu, whom she offered the lead role for the new TV series project called Ateş Kuşları (Fire Birds). The reason for this was claimed to be that the young actress had previously made an agreement with her lover Çağrı Çıtanak for another TV series project.
If these claims are true, you can see that the rule that Disney Plus has made with more than 15 famous names and that they can only take part in Fox TV productions, apart from platform work, is reflected in the industry in different ways.
The claim that ATV does not want their screen faces to be in other projects and that Başak Gümülcinelioğlu was removed from the cast of the Ateş Kuşları series also informs the arrival of a big problem.
Now you can see that a new order is being established by producers, channels, platforms, by making projects with certain players and making projects with them. The fact that Başak Gümülcinelioğlu has to leave an ambitious series of the new season called Ateş Kuşları due to another TV series project shows that similar situations can happen to many actors.
It is now understood that players will have to pay attention to this situation while planning their business. Projects that can affect the world at low cost are being revealed in the Turkish TV series sector.
For example; If we look at the worldwide interaction that the digital series called Kuş Uçuşu (Bird Flight), Kaçış (Escape) and Zeytin Ağacı (Olive Tree) have created recently, it is seen that both television channels, producers and digital platforms in the Turkish TV series sector will continue their way with a different strategy with contracts that will bind some actors to them, and this is in the name of the sector. It is possible to say that it will create a restrictive situation.
