Can Yaman
Can Yaman, born in Istanbul in 1989, trained as a lawyer before pivoting to acting in his early twenties and rapidly becoming one of Turkeys most-exported leading men. He hit prime-time stardom in the romantic comedy Dolunay (2017) opposite Ozge Gurel and consolidated it in Erkenci Kus (2018-2019), a runaway hit that turned him into a phenomenon across Latin America and the Middle East. He moved to Italy in the early 2020s, headlining the RAI series Viola come il mare (2022-2024) alongside Francesca Chillemi. Tall, magnetic and often cast in charm-driven romantic leads, he has become the most internationally famous Turkish male television star of his generation.
