MIPCOM will be the launchpad for ATV’s new series The Ottoman.

Osman, the father of the Ottoman Empire, is portrayed in the series by Burak Özçivit, known from the International Emmy Award winner Endless Love and the hit Magnificent Century.

There’s a second season of Hercai, which tells a story of love that was born from revenge. “ATV is going to have a special showcase of Hercai on Tuesday, October 15, at MIPCOM, with the attendance of the leading talents,” says Müge Akar, content sales deputy manager.

Love and Secrets was a hit this summer in Turkey, and ATV believes it will play well in other countries, too. “Even though TV consumption decreases in the summer season, Love and Secrets managed to stay on the top,” says Akar.

She adds, “The quality of the premium casts makes the drama more relatable.”
