Ivy Cast Shines in Qatar Ahead of MENA Launch

Doha, Qatar – 12 September 2023: Popular Turkish celebrities Burçin Terzioglu, Hazal Türesan and Yigit Kirazci, the lead cast of the soon-to-be-launched Turkish series ‘The Ivy’, were spotted in Qatar during a promotional event hosted by TOD at Doha Oasis. Attended by prominent members of Qatar’s business, entertainment, and media industry, the event hosted a private screening of the first episode of the series, building intrigue and interest in the upcoming show.

In TOD Original’s ‘The Ivy’, a murder shatters the illusion of perfection in Eden Garden Houses, an enclave for the wealthy.

Tensions escalate as Ezgi (Burcin) accuses her husband Kerem (Onur Tuna) of the crime, prompting a clash of denials and accusations.

Throughout the series, viewers are drawn into a captivating world of drama where they witness romances unfold, discover truths, get answers that direct them to more questions, and things get more and more tangled, just like an ivy vine.

Directed by Gökçen Usta, with a script written by Savas Korkmaz, ‘The Ivy’ is a new Turkish TOD Original available in Arabic for MENA viewers. “Turkish content has a special place in the hearts of Arabic audiences, captivating them with its rich storytelling, emotional depth, and cultural resonance.
