“Magarsus is a project I deeply love, both for its script and filming process. I am thrilled to be part of it. The same goes for ‘The Prince.’ I was already a fan of this project, and becoming one of its elements has been an incredibly enjoyable experience. I love doing comedy. Working with professionals in their field brings me great joy. Soon, we will begin filming the third season of ‘The Prince.’ It is one of the most comfortable and calm shooting experiences thanks to the advantages of working in a closed studio,” shared Çağlar Ertuğrul. He also noted that he strives to avoid repeating himself by playing similar roles or starring in similar stories, always seeking opportunities for variety.
