About the series' transition to digital

edit

We shook hands with BluTV for the continuation of the series. First of all, the 200th edition, which was ready but not published. The episode will be a movie with renewed montage and additional scenes. The new name of the project, whose naming rights belong to ATV, is "The Last Legend". On the other hand, the TV series version of the project will be shot in February and the successful actor Ozan Akbaba, who plays İlyas Çakırbeyli, will be in the leading role. Oktay Kaynarca, the character of Hızır in the series, is in prison, and Yunus Emre Yıldırımer, the character of Alpaslan, will not appear in the series because he will be shown in exile abroad.[2][3]

Following this development, ATV announced that it would file a lawsuit against BVB Yapım for 165 million. According to the news circulating behind the scenes, BluTV withdrew from its contract with BVB Yapım after ATV was preparing to file a lawsuit.[4]
