In his speech, Yousef Al-Obaidly highlighted TOD Studios’ dedication to producing original content from Türkiye for a global audience: “We know there is immense interest and love for Turkish productions worldwide. At TOD Studios, we are committed to telling stories from Türkiye that reach global audiences. Our aim is to introduce Türkiye’s rich culture to the world while bringing universal stories to Türkiye. The series will not only premiere in Türkiye but also in 24 countries across the MENA region, with plans to expand to more countries in 2025. It’s an honor for us to continue supporting and promoting Turkish content globally.”
Esra Özaral Altop, Chief Entertainment Content Officer at beIN MEDIA GROUP, also spoke about the series: “Beneath the Surface is a unique project that will capture the hearts of viewers with its deep narrative and strong characters. With its mysterious plot and thought-provoking exploration of the darker sides of human nature, we invite viewers to embark on a new discovery with each episode. A dedicated and talented team has worked tirelessly behind the scenes, and I would like to thank all the actors, the Karga 7 Pictures team, and everyone who contributed to bringing this project to life.”
Karga 7 Pictures CEO Ömer Özgüner also shared his thoughts: “I want to thank everyone who contributed to our series. Beneath the Surface carries a message of hope, showing that women’s strength can overcome any challenge. This makes us very proud. I would especially like to thank our lead actors Hazal Kaya and Çağlar Ertuğrul, as well as all of our talented cast members, for bringing these characters to life. Deniz Yorulmazer did an amazing job directing and introduced us to a beautifully crafted world. Our two female screenwriters, Nuray Uslu and Milay Ezengin, chose to walk into the darkness, which was a brave choice. I also want to thank Yousef Al-Obaidly and Esra Özaral Altop for their leadership on this project,” he said.
