Kösem Sultan another great historical character from Ottoman Dynasty will be on screen with her dramatic story. The producers of the legendary Turkish drama Magnificent Century have announced that their new project ‘Kösem Sultan’ will be on air in September 2015.
Kösem Sultan is the new tv series from the creatures of the Magnificent Century
Who is Kösem Sultan?
Kösem Sultan (Wikipedia) is another remarkable character from Ottoman Dynasty like Hürrem Sultan. Besides being a powerful woman and ruling in the Sultanate of Women era Kösem Sultan means more than power and authority, she was definitely more intriguer than Hürrem Sultan.
She was a Bosnian girl and her name was Anastasia. She had been sent as a gift to Ottoman Hareem like Hürrem Sultan and she managed to reach the top of the woman’s authority in the Ottoman palace.
In order to make a clear comparison with Hürrem Sultan, it will be enough to say that Hürrem Sultan had only one child in Sultanate. Still, Kösem Sultan had 2 children and one grandchild in Ottoman Sultanate and she was heavily influential on the Sultans.
Who will be playing Kösem Sultan?
After watching Meryem Uzerli‘s and Vahide Perçin’s great performance as Hürrem Sultan, producers were faced with the tough job to find a strong actress to handle such an important role. So they had a big shot and offered this role to Bensu Soral, Sibel Kekilli, Tuba Büyüküstün and Beren Saat. The producers finally agreed with Beren Saat and she was delighted with this role.
Beren Saat as Kösem Sultan.
Beren Saat was away from screens for some time after the tv series İntikam. Kösem Sultan will be another peak of Beren Saat’s career after the epic drama Aşk-ı Memnu (Forbidden Love)

Kösem Sultan Season Two:
Magnificent Century Kosem: Murad IV “The Conqueror of Baghdad”
wow i can’t wait to see my darling Beren in this role. they’ve made a good choice. she’s the strongest actress to play such big roles.
Beren Saat is the best choice for complicated roles like this one. no one can act like her. actually she doesn’t act. she lives her roles and with such power makes you believe her in any role. i’m sure she will shine in this role as always.
Waiting for this amazing drama !! Specially
Because of beren saat !!! My favorite actress…. <3
I thought she was Greek! That’s what all sources assume..
Kosem was Greek from origin.She was bought as a slave in Ottoman Bosnia by the Bosnian beylerbey and send to Istanbul at the age fifteen.I can't wait to see Beren <3
