Ediz Hun — Biography
Ediz Hun was born on November 20, 1940, in Istanbul to a Circassian father and a Turkish mother. After finishing St. George's Austrian High School, he studied biology and environmental science in Norway, at the universities of Oslo and Trondheim.
He began acting in 1963 and quickly became one of the leading figures of Yeşilçam cinema, appearing in well over a hundred films. He is remembered for roles in Güllü (1971-72), Güllü Geliyor Güllü (1973), Karateci Kız (1973), Tatlı Meleğim (1970), Sabah Yıldızı (1968) and Garip Kuş (1974), and returned to the screen playing himself in Arif V 216 (2018).
