EL TURCO SERIES
TO GET A LAUNCH AT MIPCOM
While we are waiting for his Sandocan series, Turkish super star Can Yaman has another epic series in his sleeve: historical adventure EL TURCO should have it's world launch over at Mipcom TV Market in Cannes later
this month. The English language drama was originally done for Disney Plus but they opted out of it and the series will be shopped elsewhere. The six-episode series which aims to be inter- national with cast including actors from nine different countries will combine history, action-adventure and romance done by Turkish distributor Madd Entertainment, who are planning for the show to get a global release in February 2025.

IN EL TURCO EPIC TV SERIES
Can Yaman plays 17th Ottoman soldier Hasan Balaban,
who was wounded during the Turkish army’s campaign to conquer Vienna in
1683 and ended up some 200 kilometers away in the Italian Alpine village
of Moena. Nicknamed 
“El Turco” by the villagers, he led the locals to a
clamorous revolt against unfair taxes that made him a local hero. In
the 17th century, the villagers erected a monument to the
Turkish janissary on their main square, where during the first week of
August they still hold the Moena Turkish Festival to
celebrate “El
Turco”. The show, which has already been sold to Russia, Italy, some
Balkan countries and Middle East also stars Will Kemp, David Nykl,
Kieran O’Reilly, Veronica Ferres, Slavko Sobin, Nick Wittman, Caroline
Boulton and Maddalena Aragão.
