Following the film "Maria," in which he appeared alongside Angelina Jolie, Haluk Bilginer is now preparing to meet audiences with the series "Sekizinci Aile." The series, which will be broadcast on Disney Plus, will consist of a total of 8 episodes.

In the series "Sekizinci Aile," Haluk Bilginer is joined by famous actors such as Ali Atay, Serkan Keskin, Çağlar Çorumlu, Cihan Talay, Mehmet Özgür, and Hazal Kaya.

Bilginer's partner in the series is young actress Melisa Döngel.

In the series, Haluk Bilginer plays a father whose partner, according to the script, needed to be younger than his own children. However, his pairing with Melisa Döngel, with whom he has a 45-year age gap, caused a significant stir on social media.

As Haluk Bilginer faced criticism, Melisa Döngel broke her silence, stating, "I believe that once people watch it, their prejudices will be broken. It has been an enjoyable project."
