Turan Cihan Simsek

So, his big break? That all started when he landed the role of Selim in the fantasy kids’ series "Bez Bebek." After that, things just kind of snowballed. Suddenly, he was popping up everywhere, especially in youth dramas that everyone seemed to be hooked on for a while—stuff like "Kardeslerim," "4N1K," "Medcezir," "Beni Boyle Sev," and "Zil Calinca." If you were flipping through Turkish TV in the last decade, there’s a solid chance you’ve seen his face, even if you didn’t realize it at the time. He didn’t just stick to main characters, either. Sometimes he'd just slide into guest spots or supporting roles, especially in hit comedy-crime series like "Adanali" or "Merhaba Hayat"—yeah, that’s the Turkish spin on "Private Practice." Plus, he’s not a stranger to comedy, with appearances in lighter stuff like "Canimin Ici," "Bir Yastik," and "Hanim Koylu." Kind of wild how he keeps showing up, right? Dude’s got range. Film-wise, he’s been part of the "4N1K" movie franchise, which is pretty much a right of passage if you’re coming up from the TV version. As for comedies, "Gecmis Olsun" and "Sabahlar Olmasin" are on his resume, bringing in the laughs on the big screen, too. Then he decided to mix it up and hopped into thrillers like "Hayalet: 3 Yasam" and "Suda Balik." So yeah, he’s not just sticking to one lane—he’s been all over the place, and honestly, it keeps things interesting.
