MADD Presents New Dramas at MIPCOM

MADD is attending MIPCOM with a slate of new Turkish prime-time dramas and award-winning hits.

Among the new titles is Lovers & Liars, an Ay Yapım drama about a brilliant lawyer and a fearless con artist that stars Hilal Altınbilek (My Wonderful Life, Bitterlands, Black Rose) and Burak Deniz (The Nightfall, The Trusted, Another Love).

The prime-time drama reunites writer Sema Ergenekon and director Ali Bilgin, who collaborated on the International Emmy-winning series Family Secrets.

My Beautiful Revenge is another new title on offer from MADD. The prime-time drama from NTC Medya tells the story of a woman who infiltrates an ultra-elite enclave on the Aegean in search of her father’s killer. The ensemble cast features Burçin Terzioğlu (For My Son, Mercy), Gökçe Eyüboğlu (My Wonderful Life, All About Marriage, Woman), Selin Şekerci (Starting Over, My Little Girl, Runaway Brides), Duygu Sarışın (Red Roses, Stiletto Vendetta), Deniz Tansel Öngel (The Innocents) and Özgür Çevik (Twisted Affairs, Orphan Flowers, The Foreign Groom). It reunites One More Chance writer Yekta Torun and director Semih Bağcı.

Another new Ay Yapım drama is on the MADD slate as well—Envy. Inspired by Nahid Sırrı Örik’s classic novel, its story of love and revenge has been updated for the 21st century by writer Yılmaz Şahin (My Wonderful Life, Magnificent Century) and director Nadim Güç (Woman, Chrysalis, Mother). It stars Özgü Namal (Red Roses, Ladies’ Farm) and Hafsanur Sancaktutan (Black Heart, If You Love, The Last Summer, Love Makes You Cry, Gülperi), among others.
