A member of the İstanbul City Theatres company, Erkan Sever acts on stage, in film and on television, where viewers know him as Mustafa Ali Dal in Kalk Gidelim; the Turkish actor also works as an assistant director. In recent years he has stayed on screen as Orhan in Ben Bu Cihana Sığmazam, İsmail in Kirli Sepeti and Mehmet Cihangir in Siyah Bere, and in 2026 he joined the cast of Gönül Dağı as a district governor.

His career began on stage. Born in İzmir, he graduated from the theater acting department of Dokuz Eylül University, worked at the İzmir State Theatre in 1994-1996 and moved to the İstanbul City Theatres in 1996. There he appeared in plays such as Romeo ve Juliet, Hırçın Kız, Suç ve Ceza and Ocak, for which he won the Yeni Tiyatro Dergisi Best Actor of the Year award in 2013. On screen he first appeared as Cihan in Örümcek, then played Polis Turan in Melekler Evi and Ömer in Ezo Gelin.

In the middle years he played Niyazi in Güzel Köylü, Suat in Hayat Mucizelere Gebe and Lütfü in Gülümse Yeter; Kalk Gidelim brought his widest recognition. In cinema he played Adem in Rina and Abdullah in Kurtlar Vadisi Filistin.

Their work through different eyes

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

Melekler Evi is Erkan Sever's most important film stop: in Ömer Kavur's film he shares the leading roles with Talat Bulut, and the film drew notice at the Golden Orange. His other films, such as Rina or Kedi Özledi, emotional comedies and dramas, are lighter in tone. In my view the Kavur film is the yardstick for the rest of his career.

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

Erkan Sever's television line stretches from sitcom to action: the comedy of Avrupa Yakası, the family humor of Güzel Köylü, Orhan in Ben Bu Cihana Sığmazam. The shift does not lock him into one type, but the many short-lived series (such as Düşman Kardeşler or İzmir Çetesi) also make it hard for a clear line to settle in his career. For series viewers the easiest way in is the long-running Avrupa Yakası.
