Vildan Atasever — Biography

Vildan Atasever was born on July 26, 1981, in Bursa, the daughter of an Erzurum-rooted family with five children; her father's job took the family to Diyarbakır for a time before she finished primary and secondary school in Istanbul. She began amateur theater at fifteen, worked as a radio DJ and TV VJ after high school, and turned to acting after meeting theater performer Çetin Etili. She reached the screen in 2003-2004 with Kurtlar Vadisi and played Hülya Avşar's daughter in Kadın İsterse. Her role as Handan in İki Genç Kız brought her the 2005 Golden Orange award, and her performance in Kader won her best actress at the Ankara International Film Festival in 2006. She co-starred with Ata Demirer in Gani Müjde's Osmanlı Cumhuriyeti (2008), which drew 1.4 million viewers. Her role as Hümaşah Sultan in Muhteşem Yüzyıl: Kösem made her known abroad as well; she also played Seyran in Klavye Delikanlıları and the head nurse Mine Yıldız in Kasaba Doktoru. She married journalist Taylan Kılınç at twenty and divorced him in 2007, then married actor İsmail Hacıoğlu in 2010 and divorced in 2015; she married musician Mehmet Erdem in 2021, and the couple have a son.

Their work through different eyes

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

Vildan Atasever's weightiest film work is Kader: in Zeki Demirkubuz's film Uğur, a bar singer, stands at the center of a story of obsession and pursuit, the woman two men orbit. Compared with her costume roles on television, this hard, sorrowful auteur film is, in my view, her strongest card in cinema.

Family Viewer Asks whether the whole household can watch it; cares about humor and heart.

For family viewing with Vildan Atasever, Sürgün İnek suits best: a comedy inspired by a real event, with the village-school teacher Gülay played by her. Osmanlı Cumhuriyeti is also a comedy, but its political jokes are more for adults. Kader is adult work; do not watch it with children.
