Birce Akalay is one of the most talked about names of recent days. Akalay, who has acted in many TV series and movies since 2007, attracted attention after the release of her two series, Kuş Uçuşu (Bird Flight) and Mezarlık (Cemetery), shot for Netflix a few weeks apart.
The actress finally came to the screen with the Son Yaz (Last Summer) series. The actress, who was very popular with the character of Ilay she played in the Babil TV series, started to play in the Son Yaz series a year after the finale in the 20th episode of this series. However, when Fox TV’s series made an early finale, Akalay’s role did not last long.
When she was not on the screen, she took part in Netflix’s Kuş Uçuşu and Mezarlık series. Although she shared from time to time during the shooting, not much information could be obtained because the shootings were carried out confidentially. With the release of the Kuş Uçuşu series on June 3, Birce Akalay suddenly became one of the most talked about names on the agenda.
At the same time, İbrahim Çelikkol and Miray Daner, who were partners in the Siyah Beyaz Aşk (Black White Love) series, also came to the fore with their acting in the Kuş Uçuşu series. The situation that made Birce Akalay more talked about was Netflix’s release of the Mezarlık series after Kuş Uçuşu.
Birce Akalay, who took the lead role with Olgun Toker in the series Mezarlık, gave life to a completely different character in this series. Akalay’s acting, which gives life to a police officer trying to illuminate the murders of women, was highly appreciated. Birce Akalay played an experienced TV programmer and journalist in the TV series Kuş Uçuşu.
Birce Akalay became the most striking name on the agenda with the release of her two series at the same time and the top 10 of Netflix’s TV series. The actress, who gave an interview to the Hürriyet Newspaper in the past days, drew attention to her statement about the series that most impressed her among the productions she took part in.
The actress, who was injured while taking ballet training and then went to the theater, does not hide her disappointment in her first series. Concentrating on the positive side of this situation for her own development,
Birce Akalay said, “I always say, if things had worked and I had gotten somewhere quickly, maybe I would have had a problem with digestion at that age. Thus, I could have learned much later that the journey of self-development will continue until death.”
Birce Akalay, who came to the screen for the first time with the TV series Kader (Destiny) she played in 2007 and then took part in the series Asi, puts the series Yer Gök Aşk, which was published in 2010, in a separate place in her professional life. Akalay gave life to the character of Havva in this TV series that was screened on Fox TV.
Stating that she was offered the other role from two sisters for this series, but she wanted the character of Havva very much, the actress thinks that the series, which came to the screen in 122 episodes, is one of the turning points of her life.
The viewers of the series praise the performance of the actress by commenting that Birce Akalay did not play at that time and almost lived the character. Birce Akalay also conveys the importance of this series and the role it plays for her, with the following words:
“My other turning point is the series “Yer Gök Aşk”, which I returned to television. I felt ready now and the work itself was so gripping that I longed to be in it. In our first meeting with Nermin Eroğlu, she said that they were actually considering me for the role of the other sister. However, I fell in love with the role of Havva so much that I said I wanted to give an audition to both roles and that’s how I got her. There would be a huge void in my career without Havva.”
