Family: He is originally from Zonguldak on his father’s side. His mother Sevinç Erol and father Seda Yıldız are state theater artists. “Therefore, before I was eight years old, he grew up with the actors backstage. “I am an only child. I had cousins the same age that I could call brothers. I was born in Üsküdar, but due to civil service, my family and I stayed in Trabzon until I was four years old. The next is always Istanbul. The best advice I have ever received from my family; ‘No matter what happens, don’t lie and ‘do whatever you’re going to do…’
Childhood years: He met the sets at the age of eight. The first movie in which he acted as a child, ‘Babamı Hırsızlar Çaldı’, went to Cannes. Then came the series “İki Aile”. “I spent my childhood watching my parents’ performances in theatres. I was very lucky in this regard. When I think of childhood, the first image that comes to mind is; My grandmother’s balcony. The whole family is having breakfast in the narrow space. The season is spring. The sun hits the balcony.”
Education life: Graduated from Mimar Sinan University Fine Arts Faculty Theater Department.
The turning point of his life: It was a coincidence that he took part in a project when he was eight years old. “Turkish director Esen Işık, who came from Switzerland, contacted my mother. The whole family took part in the project. I never felt like a child actor. More precisely, I did not feel like an actor. At that age, I was just having fun. Of course, it was difficult to work long hours, but they were very professional. On the set, there was a psychologist for the children and areas where we could linger. It was like an escape from my boring life for me. I was going through a difficult time. He showed me that there are other things in life and how to enjoy them. It was a great pleasure to be someone else, to meet other people, to be recognized by your loved ones. It cannot be said that it changed my school life much, of course, prejudiced people started to form around me, but we were children, this is very normal. I don’t remember if it was my first audition, but I remember the day I went to the test shoot of the İki Aile series like it was yesterday. I was 14 years old and I gave a very comfortable audition as I had no acting anxiety whatsoever. And then it happened.”
First step into acting: He had his first acting experience with the movie ‘Babamı Hırsızlar Çaldı’.
Which project did he shine with? He attracted attention with the character of “Efe” in the TV series “İki Aile”.
Mindset: Acting is what he feels best in. “I see acting both as a profession, a hobby and a therapy. This is the only area where I don’t think about everyday troubles. Of course, it has effects such as lack of programming, physical and mental fatigue, but all these cannot prevent its saving effects.
His view on love: “Love comes and goes. Just like hatred, excitement and surprise. It is a feeling that loses its first effect day by day and leaves its place to other commitments and addictions. How happy it would be if he left it to pure love. There is that too. I have never fallen in love at first sight. I do not know. Maybe there is something. I was excited, adored, but not enough for love. I can’t understand the love of the other person before time passes. It’s about how altruistic, understanding and positive he is in the process.”
First feature film: Esen Işık/ Babamı Hırsızlar Çaldı
His outlook on life: He thinks that the most difficult thing as he gets older is his dreams. “Dreams were easier when I was a kid. Dreaming too… Your dreams grow with you and it always gets harder. My greatest achievement in life is learning not to look back and getting rid of my obsessions to a large extent. I am happier since I learned to enjoy the day. I don’t give up my character for any success. I don’t chew anyone.”
Perspective on business life: “I was grateful for everything positive or negative that came my way, as this profession was my basis for holding on to life and enjoying it at the beginning. Fame is a reward and sometimes a lump sum. I thank him instead of managing. I live in the flow. The work I did at a young age certainly improved me. I have worked with very important names. I bought as much as I could from them. But after a while, television started to not excite me. I come from a family of actors, I saw them how to do this job properly. I wanted to go on stage and get excited about acting again. I graduated from Mimar Sinan Fine Arts Faculty Theater Department. I also do theatre actively.”
Future Dream: The dream of the future is to be an actor (human) who is always remembered for his good works. As a more concrete dream, he wants to make films abroad. Life motto; Whatever you do, do your best!
The attractiveness criterion in women: He finds crazy, strong, unconditional, and learning-hungry women attractive.
Who he admires: If he had the opportunity to meet someone, dead or alive, he would want to meet Marlon Brando.
What’s your biggest craze to date? Every moment he says ‘Come on, we’re leaving’ is too crazy for him. “I haven’t been the type of person to leave the comfort zone very long. As the eldest, I can probably show the movie I shot last year. It was a Lithuanian-made job where I played English. The character was quite difficult and risky for me. I blacked out and went and did it.”
Which movie was he influenced by: Dark and Stranger Things series he didn’t miss. “Besides these, I watch many TV series from time to time, of course. I’m not good with junk food, but I will definitely prepare my coffee and sit in front of the TV.”
