Kadir Çermik — Biography

Wide audiences know Kadir Çermik best as Emmi in the series Çukur; the Turkish actor works on stage, in film and on television, and as a voice actor. A graduate of the State Conservatory at Anadolu University in Eskişehir, he returned to the screen in 2025 as Ali Kemal in Gözleri KaraDeniz.

His early career brought appearances in series such as Yılan Hikayesi, Yeditepe İstanbul and Kuzenlerim, while much of his work in those years was voice acting. His breakthrough in cinema came in 2008 with Made in Europe, which earned him a share of the Best Actor award at the Adana Golden Boll Film Festival. He then played Louis II of Hungary in Muhteşem Yüzyıl and Geveze Ahmet in Karadayı. His performance in Sarmaşık (2015) drew praise from critics and juries alike: he was named Best Supporting Actor at the Ankara Film Festival and was also honored at the Sadri Alışık Awards for the same film.

From 2017 to 2021 he was a regular in Çukur. In the same period he played Adnan in Ahlat Ağacı (The Wild Pear Tree), and he later appeared in Üç Kuruş, Sahipsizler and, as Hüso, the 10 Days film series. He also directed the film Tezgah.

Their work through different eyes

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

Adnan in Ahlat Ağacı, the bus driver in Gözetleme Kulesi, İsmail in Sarmaşık: Kadir Çermik's most interesting film work comes where he enters a film's world as a supporting character. His part in Sarmaşık won best supporting actor at the Ankara Film Festival; his strength, in my view, is looking as if he belongs to that world.

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

King Louis II of Hungary in Muhteşem Yüzyıl, Kadızade Mehmed Efendi in Muhteşem Yüzyıl Kösem, Geveze Ahmet in Karadayı: Kadir Çermik moves easily between period costume and neighborhood drama. Emmi in Çukur, as a regular face across four seasons, is the part that reached the widest audience.
