PROJECT ON THE WAY WITH ANTONIO BANDERAS
Kerem Bürsin, who was asked to meet with Antonio Banderas abroad, said, “I made new friendships and new jobs. It is very important to meet with such a master actor and to share something. We also talked about a project that we could be together. Both parties were eager for a project to take a role together.” had spoken.
“I SOUND TALKING ABOUT MY LOVE LIFE”
Referring to the news that he “sailed for a new love with Stephanie Cayo”, Kerem Bürsin used the following statements:
“We need to change our mindset on this subject. Every love story that comes out is not true. People meet, become friends, it may turn into love in the future, but it is wrong to say ‘She fell in love’ right away. Talking about my love life when there are so many negative things happening in the world seems ridiculous to me. I don’t care.”
“THAT’S MY HOMELAND”
Stating that he always had a dream abroad, the actor said, “It is very important to be successful abroad, but more importantly for me, to be able to represent Turkey on very big platforms. Because this is my homeland.”
“THE MEASUREMENT OF PLAYING ACCORDING TO THE NUMBER OF FOLLOWERS IS WRONG”
Bürsin was reminded that the Spanish actor was showered with comments on social media after meeting with Antonio Banderas; handsome actor, “Antonio Banderas normally shared photos received 500 comments, thousands of comments and likes within minutes of posting your photo. How do you interpret this situation?” He answered the question as follows:
“Actually, all the facts of life come out here. Acting and success should never be measured by the number of followers. Antonio Banderes is a name that the world knows and has his name written in golden letters. I am Kerem Bürsin. This situation on social media should not mislead people. Kim Kardashian, for example. He has hundreds of millions of followers. But who? Follower counts don’t represent a person’s success rate.”
“I WAS PLAYING THE MAN HOLDING THE PIZZA”
The famous name recently participated in the cinema talk that took place the previous day as part of the Beyoğlu Culture Road events. In the interview moderated by successful journalist Ömür Sabuncuoğlu, Bürsin talked about the first test shoot and said, “My first experience was a pizza commercial. I was only going to play the man holding the pizza, but unfortunately I was not selected. In the second tryout, I was selected for a TV series.”
Reminding that the master of action movies, Jan Cloth Van Damme, frequently came to Turkey and shot films, Bursin said, “A great actor, but for me, Van Damme ended after 1999. He didn’t have a good project after the 2000s.”
“EVERYONE LOOKS AT CINEMA COMMERCIALLY”
Bürsin, “Do you think Turkish cinema has caught the heat in Yeşilçam right now?” To the question, “Absolutely no. Turkish cinema is not bad, but there is no warmth! This is because everyone looks at cinema commercially. Turkey is not a movie industry, it’s a TV series industry. Our TV series are watched but not our movies. This is a sad situation.”
“WE ARE MORE DISCIPLINED”
“If you compare the sets in America with the sets in Turkey, what is the biggest difference?” Asked, “We are more industrious and disciplined. Talking about the actors, I can’t say much. I can’t say much. I don’t have a language, but would you understand if I said they don’t think they’re anything. That is, they don’t shout, ‘I created the worlds, this is my set bro'”.
Kerem Bürsin, “If you were to add a course on acting at the university, what would you focus on first?” He replied, “‘Don’t forget your humanity when you become an actor’. There are many such people, but I don’t understand how they still work in the industry. We have to give other people a chance.”
“WOMEN’S JOB IS VERY HARD”
“Is it difficult for female actors in Turkey?” Answering the question, Bürsin said, “Yes, it is very difficult. In terms of more performance expected from women. Unfortunately, our sector is a male-dominated sector”.
Handsome actor, “Do you find the award ceremonies in Turkey and around the world fair?” When he was asked, “No, I don’t find it. Maybe they won’t give me an award after this, but unfortunately it is. Social media has upset a lot of things. It has turned into quality or popularity,” he said.
“THEY WAS VERY SURPRISE WHEN I TOLD YOU I WAS TURKISH”
Talking about his education process abroad, the actor said, “People were very surprised when I said I was Turkish. I was the only Turkish in my university years. When one was abroad, nationalism came to the fore. I was proud to say, ‘These veins are 100 percent Turkish, are they okay?'” he said.
“I BELIEVE I WILL BECOME A FARMER”
“How do you think about your career planning?” Answering the question with a humorous language, Bürsin made the following statement:
“According to this process in the world, I think I will become a farmer. I see farming as a very sacred job. There are more sheep than people in New Zealand. I am also looking forward to settling there. Humor aside, this summer is very dry and there will probably be fires. I wish we could do something about these situations together with my colleagues.”
The player, who will turn 34 on June 4, said, “Do you have a plan?” To the question, he replied, “I will spend it at home with my dog. I have not made any plans.”
