In recent years he became familiar through supporting roles in widely watched series such as Kara Sevda, Çukur, Halka and Sadakatsiz; in 2025 he plays Tekfur Saroz in Kuruluş: Orhan.

In his youth he played licensed basketball for eight years, then passed the state conservatory entrance exam and graduated first in his class from the Ankara State Conservatory in 1984. He did his internship at the Bursa State Theatre and then moved to the Ankara State Theatre, where he served as deputy director and director, acted in plays such as III. Richard, Gılgameş and Budala, and directed. He taught at Selçuk and Hacettepe universities and also worked in private theaters such as Tiyatrokare and Tiyatro Baykuş.

On screen he first appeared in 1996 as Murad IV in İstanbul Kanatlarımın Altında and reached a wide audience with Zerda. In film he is remembered for Fasulye, Mevlana Aşkı Dansı (Shams of Tabriz), Sultan Avrupa'da (Sultan Abdülaziz) and Nefes: Yer Eksi İki. In series he played Galip Kozcuoğlu in Kara Sevda, Baykal Kent in Çukur, Feyyaz Meftun in Eşkıya Dünyaya Hükümdar Olmaz, İlhan Tepeli in Halka and Haluk Güçlü in Sadakatsiz.

Their work through different eyes

Cinephile Looks at script, editing and directing choices; keeps a distance from formula films.

The most interesting stretch of Burak Sergen's film career is the work with Mustafa Altıoklar: IV. Murad in İstanbul Kanatlarımın Altında, Arap Sado in Ağır Roman, then Asansör and Banyo. A 17th-century ruler in one, Arap Sado in another: playing both ends within one director's world opens different tones to him. In my view the Altıoklar films leave a clearer mark than his television supporting parts.

Series Binger A series devotee tracking character arcs, cast chemistry and season pacing.

Burak Sergen's television work reads like a school of supporting roles: Baykal Bey in Çukur, Galip Kozcuoğlu in Kara Sevda, Haluk Güçlü in Sadakatsiz, Tekfur Saroz in Kuruluş: Orhan. He moves comfortably between crime, melodrama, thriller and period drama. The drawback is that in crowded casts running to well over a hundred episodes, like Çukur, supporting parts struggle to make room for themselves. Still, being a dependable face across genres is an advantage for series viewers.
