We know that there are performances in the theater where only one actor plays - this is a one-man show. And there are actors who played in just one movie or series. So it can be said about Nejati Shashmaz, who for many years has played the same role.
Perhaps this suits him, because the project "Valley of the Wolves" began to be filmed back in 2003, and still the audience is watching it with pleasure. In the framework of the project, in addition to the four seasons of the main series, episodes of "Iraq" (2006), "Terror" (2007), "Trap" (2007-2016), "Palestine" (2011), "Homeland" (2017) were consecutively released. Shashmaz plays the main character here - Polat Alemdar.
However, in parallel with working on the set of the series Nejati managed to do a lot: he wrote the script for one of the episodes of "Valley of the Wolves" (2017), as well as the script for the series "Watch" (2017-
) He was also a director and producer of two films at the same time.
We can say that natural acting talent is developing, and in the future Shashmaz has good prospects in the film industry.
