Selen Öztürk — Biography

Selen Öztürk was born on July 23, 1980, in İzmir, to a Turkish Cypriot mother and a father from Uşak. After graduating from the Hacettepe University State Conservatory in 2004, she settled in Istanbul and gained stage experience at theaters including Tiyatro Kedi, Tiyatro Oyun Evi and Oyun Atölyesi. Since 1994 she has also built an extensive career as a voice actress, dubbing numerous international productions, among them the Marvel character Okoye (in Black Panther, Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame), Disney's Coco and Cruella, and the series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

She made her on-screen acting debut in the series Kara Yılan (2007), and after Bir Varmış Bir Yokmuş (2008) gained international recognition for playing Gülfem Hatun in Muhteşem Yüzyıl (2011). In the years since she has played Seniha Sultan in Payitaht Abdülhamid, Seher Altın in Atiye and Yeliz in Çekiç ve Gül: Bir Behzat Ç. Hikayesi, and Ceren in the film Çilek. Between 2023 and 2025 she played Hasna Güneş in Kızıl Goncalar, and most recently appeared in the film Ayşe Tatile Çıktı.

Their work through different eyes

AI-assisted editorial takes on this person's screen work, written from different viewer perspectives. They are not reader comments; those are below.

Series Binger A series devotee tracking character arcs, cast chemistry and season pacing.

On television Selen Öztürk is first the palace woman: Gülfem Hatun in Muhteşem Yüzyıl, Seniha Sultan in Payitaht Abdülhamid. The two parts share the costume and the court register more than anything of their own, and the second reads like a repeat of the first rather than a fresh reading. A part such as Seher in Atiye, set in a world of mystery and fantasy, sits outside that mold and is the more curious one to look for.

Cinephile Looks at script, editing and directing choices; keeps a distance from formula films.

In film, Selen Öztürk's most visible work is Cep Herkülü: Naim Süleymanoğlu, where Hatice Süleymanoğlu is the family presence beside the story of Naim, played by Hayat Van Eck. Özer Feyzioğlu's 141-minute film runs eleven years in a single line and gives a supporting character little room. Öztürk is more rewarding in longer-breathed work, the series, than in this film.
