A few months ago, for Timur Ülker, 32: Bye bye, GZSZ-Set. The actor received his own spin-off: "Nihat-everything at the beginning". The role of actor Nihat Güney works his past in the mini-series and goes to the bottom of family history. From Wednesday, 22 September 2021, fans can finally see the result of the production. In an interview with Gala Ülker already reveals: it becomes exciting, sexy and funny!
GZSZ-star Timur Ülker: "I felt like a little child and was totally excited"
Gala: you were a few weeks away from the GZSZ-Set to shoot for your own series "Nihat-everything at the beginning". Could you ever have imagined that?
Timur Ülker: actually not, no. I can still remember how I told my mother that I was playing with GZSZ, which was far away from the shot for myself and she was completely freaked out. She broke out in tears. Your own spin-off is now like a dream, I have to realize it first.
How was the first moment on the new set?
It was just so big. My first thought was: wow, that & APOs; s what they really did for my spin-off. So many people who were involved in it. The set was just three times as big as I expected. I felt like a little child and was totally excited.
Her role "Nihat" is extremely multifaceted: intelligent, sexy, humorous and yet very profound. Which scenes are easy for you personally, which are more difficult to implement?
For me, it & APOs; s sometimes difficult for Nihat to unpack his knowledge. These are often things that I personally have to Google and learn by heart. If I have 5 to 6 such scenes a day, I also wonder: oh Nihat, does that have to be now? But then I have to smile again, because that & APOs; s just through and through the role. It's easy for me, especially the flirtatious scenes. I can do that … I can do that very well. (laughs)
You know how to use your sex appeal in front of the camera. Is it sometimes too much for you to be reduced only to the physical?
If I'm honest, then yes. There was a time when it annoyed me when the script said, "Nihat takes off his shirt." But I have this body, and I'm proud of it. When I remember my casting, I played one and the same scene over and over again and pulled up my shirt in one place during all the runs. Well, that was a decision that continues to prevail today. (laughs)
What can the audience look forward to: inside at "Nihat-everything at the beginning"?
To a ten-part event series! There are drama, wit, humor and so many real moments: where do I come from, who am I? It & APOs; s a roller coaster of feelings and everything is represented.
Apart from GZSZ and & quot; Nihat-everything at the beginning & quot;, you have other projects running: your own book, your own music, but above all your private life with your children. How do you manage to get everything together?
I work a lot, it's always been like that. I am a person who always gives 100 percent and holds on to his dreams and goals. And I & APOs; m honest: there are times when the family comes too short. But then I try to catch up again and again, take 4 days off and do something with the children and Caro. And of course Caro is my rock in the surf, which is always at my side and supports me.
& quot; Nihat-everything at the beginning & quot; celebrates its TVNow premiere on 15.9.202. From 22.9. The spin-off is broadcast on RTL instead of "good times, bad times".
