Family: Son of famous Turkish folk music artist İzzet Altınmeşe, originally from Diyarbakır. Her mother is a housewife, she has a brother and an older sister. “As long as I can remember, there are folk songs in the house, while my father’s baglama was in his hand while writing music, for example. I remember listening to P. Diddy’s I’ll Be Missing You around 1996-1997. My father was not involved in anything, neither in music nor in choosing my school, my profession. For example, when I said “Dad, I want to go to football”, he sent me to the football course without question. While I was studying cinema and television at Istanbul Bilgi University, after staying two years in a row, I told my father to go and pick me up from school, and then he said, “You know, my son.” Either I was going to do hip hop or be an actor. I was clear about that. He respected my decisions and always made me feel this. ”
Childhood years: Since his childhood, he observed and imitated those around him very well. “People around me always knew that I had such a potential, but I put it off until the university age. My master was passed on to my mother because we were always together at home. I used to make different faces and bristly movements for my mother. I was discovering strange movements in the mirror and go and try on my mother. I tried my gestures and gestures on him. He was saying ‘You are crazy’, and it is strange that one learned from his mother that you are crazy. I was a bit of a mischievous kid at school too. I wouldn’t be disrespectful to the teachers, but I wouldn’t overlook the rules too much. I’ve even been disciplined. We were breaking walls, we were breaking doors. We were fighting with friends, that’s childhood. ”
Education life: He left his education in Istanbul Bilgi University Cinema and Television Department after two years. Later, she took private acting lessons at the Craft Acting Workshop.
The turning point of his life: After studying for 2 years at Bilgi University, he quit and started acting was the turning point of his life. “When I entered university, I wanted to study cinema-TV. Of course I always dreamed of acting and music. Then I stayed in the middle class and was sorry for this situation. I left school and started taking acting classes at Craft. Fortunately, I failed the classroom that I attended those classes. I never regretted dropping out of school. I believe everything that happens has a cause. When I look back, I see that I left school just in time and I say ‘good luck’. Because the only thing I wanted to do at that moment of my life was acting and music. I made a bold decision. My family has always stood behind me. My father got confused neither choosing the department nor dropping out of school. Only ‘This decision has consequences. But you know, “he said. So if I fail, I have no one to blame in the future. But until now, I have never regretted my decisions. ”
First step into acting: He started his television adventure with the series ‘Vicdan’.
With which project did he shine? He drew attention with the character of “Umut”, which he portrayed in the “Lion Family” series.
Personality traits: He is patient but can be impulsive at times. “People have known actor Fırat Altunmeşe so far, some of them know him as the son of İzzet Altınmeşe. Master, trying to stay patient, more moderate. However, I am a different person in my private life, very emotional and a little impulsive. I like sharing, I like bringing people together, organization. When I’m not angry, I usually feel like cotton. My communication with people is strong. But in some cases, my eyes may darken momentarily. People who know them take care not to make me that way. If I do not hold grudges and there is no ulterior motive, my anger will pass within an hour. I am a little possessive and protective type. I have always been protective towards my loved ones when I have a lover. I am also someone who likes to share. ”
Mindset: People in his life always learned that he was the son of a famous father. This is very normal for him because he does not like living his life as the son of İzzet Altunmeşe. “Whatever you do, people find something to shake. Izzet Altınmeşe’s son, player with torpedo. But there is such a situation at home that I never walked as the son of İzzet Altınmeşe. For example, in my first series, Conscience, only the director knew, my colleagues learned it in the third week. I live in Moda, even the tradesmen there get angry with me because you haven’t told me before. The only thing my father kept us away from was the cameras. He himself has always been a distant person. I cannot imagine myself on the magazine pages, nor do I want to. I don’t think it’s a magazine product either. ”
A source of happiness: Playing with Reha Özcan, whom she admires in the TV series A Miracle or, is one of the biggest sources of happiness. “Reha Özcan is my favorite actor after Şener Şen. It can take any shape, any character. We worked together in Maral before. We have a lot of fun together and while we chat in a non-didactic way, I learn something from him without realizing it. Watching him even on stage is a lesson in itself. ”
First motion picture: Ahmet Küçükkayalı / Bensiz
The person he admires: There are some actors he admires and says “we must share the same set”; “Turkey’s history has come Şener Şen’s best player. I am even willing to be an extra in a movie starring Şener Şen. Also, Cem Yılmaz, someone whose intelligence I admire, I believe that we can get a good energy in terms of comedy on the same set. I would love to be on the same set with Hüseyin Avni Danyal and Gülse Birsel. ”
His gaze on love: “I think love is to become complete, to become sensitive, to tear down its walls, to remove its masks, and finally to die. I am very interested in Sufism. We come to the world and we all try to be one, we want to be complete. It usually happens with the opposite sex. Even if you experience the world’s greatest love, there are always missing spots somewhere. So love is beautiful but nothing perfect. When I like someone, I take the first step, but I don’t stretch. I behave as I feel like it. If I like it, I’ll say it directly. I expect it to be comfortable from the other side. ”
View of life: Does not take patterns too seriously. “Although I don’t look like that from the outside, I will live my life deeper.”
His perspective on business life: His father became the best role model for him in learning what to do in the face of fame. “My father İzzet Altunmeşe never brought us too much attention. But besides him, I learned what to do in the face of fame. That’s why, even though I feel the fame, I continue my normal life because what I learned from my father will never affect me much. In other words, I am not covered by the “Famous” father in business life. Someone who knows my father more or less does not think of such a thing. Feride Hoca came after he started filming the series, “Are you the son of İzzet Brother?” My father always ‘Art does not have a torpedo. If necessary, you can wait ten years, then a door will open after ten years. ”
Career Plan: He likes to do comedy. “I’ve been enjoying my comedy side more comfortably since I was a kid. I can see details that no one else has seen and have fun with them. I like to make people laugh and laugh. ”
Dream of the Future: He had another dream that he carefully cultivated along with acting since childhood; ‘Hip hop’. He made this dream come true with an album called “Now My Time”. Another big dream is to work together with his father. “It was an album with nine songs. The studies took about two and a half years. But it was a 15-year dream. One of my biggest dreams was to collaborate with my father, I didn’t want to do it on the first album because I didn’t want to come out as the son of İzzet Altınmeşe. But on the album, as a surprise for him, I interpreted the original Indian song Avare, voiced by my father. The original track is from an Indian film from 1951. My father is doing the song in Turkish in 1989. I bought the background of the song, we bought the instruments with Da Poet, we wrote hip hop drums on it, and we used my father’s vocals in the chorus. However, later we had trouble getting the rights to the song with my record label and unfortunately I couldn’t put it on the album. But I made my father listen, of course. I said it at the launch, people liked it very much. The important thing is that the album is absorbed into me. People will discover it in maybe two years, maybe six years later. It’s like discovering Jay Z’s album released in 1996 much later. I did not make this album thinking about what the market would like, it has not been heard much yet, but of course it will. My father always says, “Patience, perseverance, conviction.”
What can not tolerate? Injustice infuriates him. “I never fail to respect anyone, but if there is injustice, if what is done is not fair, my voice will always rise.”
What kind of music does he listen to? He’s a big Jay Z fan. “Other than that, I love Kendrick Lamar, P. Diddy, Busta Rhymes, Joey Badass. Among the Turks, I think Ezhel is number one, I think it will advance worldwide. Among the young people, I can say Damascus and Baneva. Names that I can call my friends and I like very much. I listen to all kinds of good music, arabesque, pop, folk song no matter ”
Who does he admire? Jamie Foxx is one of the most admired people in his life. “I also love Will Smith. You like some names for their energy, Will Smith is for me. Among the directors, Nolan, Tarantino, Scorsese and of course Tim Burton. Tim Burton was my number one until Nolan came along. There is such a fantasy world and it reflects it in such a way that if someone shows even a single shot of his films, you will immediately understand that it belongs to him. Either from the atmosphere or from the costume. As an actor, I loved Joaquin Phoenix very much before the Joker. ‘He was in a bad role in Gladiator, that’s why our generation grew up without loving him. It was so convincing. “After watching it on The Master, I said,” Okay, this guy broke his head. ” I think he was the best and only name to play the Joker after Heath Ledger. In the meantime, I would like to add Engin Günaydın to the players I see as the master of our time. It’s really someone who plays with each mimic, the strand of his hair. ”
The criterion of attractiveness in women: He finds women like himself attractive. “If I notice you playing, I will immediately absorb. If this situation affects a normal man a little bit, it can affect me many times. I don’t know what a move he makes, a single word he says can end it all. A very materialist person is not for me. I know very well that the result of this is not happiness either. ”
What kind of movies does he like? He watches all kinds of movies. “I like both horror and comedy. “I like everything Seth Rogen does. I love that crew, James Franco, Jonah Hill… I’m a fan of ‘The Office’. Could it be a person like Michael Scott? Steve Carell is also a really amazing actor. I love science fiction. My favorite movie for a long time was The Matrix. From Sufism to Buddhism, everything is in the Matrix. Interstellar is also very important to me. Quantum tells me the same thing as mysticism, it is very difficult to explain it with a film, even to dare to explain it. If Christopher Nolan says “Walk,” I would walk.
Does he follow fashion? If he wears a coat that was on trend 20 years ago and feels good, it will be the trend for him. “Since I was a kid, I used to dress in a lot of colors. One day a friend of mine even looked at me and said “Coloring book from Diyarbakır.” I was very colorful even when I was hanging out with sweatpants. Whatever you feel comfortable with, it suits you. Doesn’t fashion repeat itself after 10-15 years. If you have something you love, don’t throw it away, it will be time anyway. I have the most colorful socks, white t-shirts and caps in my closet. I love caps. ”
What does he spend money on? He describes himself as “old-fashioned” about shopping online. “I was very old-fashioned about that, but especially when I started shopping from Urban Outfitters, I opened up. I’m bringing you can not find in Turkey subject. I do my shopping myself, but I’m too lazy to enter the trial booth. I usually pick it up and take it out, I don’t really like trying.
