Filming of the new Turkish series “Secret Garden” has been temporarily halted due to medical issues faced by the lead actor. Murat Yıldırım, who plays the role of architect Demir, recently underwent a minor eye surgery.

The project, produced by TMC Film for the NOW television channel, has had to take a one-week break in its filming schedule. Despite this, it is expected that Yıldırım will return to work just a few days after his recovery.

“Secret Garden” is drawing attention for its scale. In addition to filming in Istanbul, parts of the first episode were shot in Morocco and Cyprus, highlighting the project’s ambitious scope.

Fans are eagerly awaiting the release of the series’ trailer and poster, which, according to sources close to the production, are expected to be published soon.

The temporary suspension of filming is not expected to significantly impact the overall production schedule, and the project remains one of the most anticipated of the upcoming television season.
