The series Haysiyet, one of the most anticipated new dramatic projects from Kanal D, has entered a new stage of production with the release of the first images from the actors' test shoot.
The production, carried out by Süreç Film, was in development for several months. According to Turkish media, filming is scheduled for July 17. Before the start of work, the entire cast and creative team gathered for a traditional script reading rehearsal, where the actors familiarized themselves with the manuscript for the first time together. Photos from this event were subsequently published, providing viewers with their first official look at the ensemble before filming began.
Turkish entertainment publications report that Haysiyet is one of Kanal D's key projects for the upcoming television season. Eda Tekseo directed the series, and the screenplay was written by Leyla Uslu Öter and Cem Akyoldaş. They created a story focused on themes of family, social inequality, and the difficult decisions people make to protect their loved ones.
According to the production team and Turkish media, Haysiyet tells the story of two young people from completely different social classes. The story begins when Mehmet, played by Doğukan Güngör, encounters Simay, portrayed by Merih Özturk. Their unexpected meeting leads to the development of a relationship that unites two families with radically different living conditions.
The Karlıov family occupies a central place in the plot, whose determination to defend their dignity and honor forms a significant part of the drama. Their struggle unfolds against the backdrop of a wealthy and influential family, creating a narrative based on love, power, loyalty, and class division. Turkish media characterizes the series as a blend of emotional family drama with romantic and social themes, exploring how personal values are tested when people from opposite social circles find each other.
The new photos from the rehearsal showcased the actors and the creative team gathered around the table before the start of filming. As is customary before the launch of major Turkish dramas, the rehearsal allowed the actors to discuss their characters, review key scenes, and begin building the chemistry that will define the series. These images quickly spread across Turkish entertainment media, causing excitement among viewers eager to see Kanal D's latest drama.
A strong point of the production is its experienced cast. The series features Kerem Alışık, Doğukan Güngör, Reha Özkan, Merih Özturk, Nergis Özturk, Gökberk Yıldırım, Orkun Jan İzan, Asır Gündoğdu, Aybüke Yılmaz, Elifkan Ongurlar, Burak Çelik, Berfin Kıymaz, Nizam Namidar, Gülçin Hatıhan, Aicha Varliyer, Ceren Kesim, Edem Koç, Doruk Miraç Günaydın, and Hilal Kuvvet. The combination of established stars and rising talents has already made Haysiyet one of the most discussed works in development for the upcoming season.
This project also marks an important career milestone for Doğukan Güngör, who gained international recognition for his role as Fatih Yunal in the series Kızılcık Şerbeti. Following the success of the long-running drama, Haysiyet becomes his next leading television project, placing him at the center of a story built around romance, family conflicts, and social tensions. With the start of filming approaching, Haysiyet, with its experienced creative team behind the camera and large cast in front of it, has already established itself as one of the most anticipated Turkish television dramas of the new season.
