The series "Magnificent Century" was very fond of the audience. The highlight of the film was the red-haired actress Meriem. But when at the end of spring, interrupting the shooting of the last several episodes of the season, she decided to leave the movie theater, the fans were at a loss. They bombarded the studio with letters. All they needed was Meriem Uzerli. Later it became clear - it was her own initiative.
Fateful role
The red-haired actress was born in a family with the roots of two different cultures. Ursula's mother is a purebred German, and her father is a Turk. His name is Hussein. It was he who influenced the choice of a profession by his daughter. He was the director of a small theater in Germany. Meriam entered the scene at the age of five. After studying in Hamburg, bright, young and talented, the girl lived in anticipation of proposals from the directors. And here she is, the fateful role of Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska. So why did Meriem Uzerli leave the "Magnificent Century" - a series that won the hearts of the audience to the very depths?
Rumors went different. The actress herself referred to severe fatigue. And soon everyone found out that she was pregnant. But still it was not entirely clear why Meryem Uzerli left the “Magnificent Century” so quickly, interrupting the shooting of the last episodes of the season.
It turns out that the creators of the film planned, for certain reasons, to replace the actress with a more mature one. But not as dramatically as it happened. Apparently there were good reasons for this. Most likely, yes - this is the father of the child. He forced Meryem to have an abortion, as he already had two children in a former relationship.
Apology
Turning the actress's head around, Jan Atesh turned out to be an unreliable life companion. That is why Meryere Uzerly left the "Magnificent Century" - she was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. All the forces needed to be concentrated on bearing the child. She did not want to get rid of him and decided to become a mother, albeit single.
Time passed, and the actress apologized for her act to her fans. However, she noted that according to the plot, she would have had to leave literally in a few episodes anyway. And if at first the audience could not understand what was happening, then after all the explanations they forgave their favorite, stopped blaming the creators of the film and finally figured out why Meryere Uzerli had left the Magnificent Century so suddenly and mysteriously.
Changes
The decision to seek acting happiness in Turkey was made as swiftly as the opposite - returning home. In 2011, a young and bright actress decided to try herself at the casting for the Turkish film. I needed a girl for the role of Roxolana. Meriem like no one came up for this project. Everything spun quickly, and the acting star ascended to its horizon.
But despite this, Meriem Uzerli left the series “The Magnificent Century” when it came to choosing: a child or a career.
She gave birth to a daughter. For a long time, the actress showed her photos in different posts, however, did not provide an opportunity to see the face of the child. But she needed to build her career. There were no new proposals equal to Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska Haseki Sultan. Since Meriem Uzerli left the "Magnificent Century", she had to go through a lot. Today she has changed a lot. Now the actress has become blonde, and it looks like plastic has touched her face.
Fans did not really welcome these changes. After all, the actress has natural beauty. She is very attractive. And after the changes I lost a certain uniqueness. Not all fans may think so, but a significant part of them adhere to just such an opinion.
What happened before the "Great Age"?
Before Meriem went to shoot in Turkey, she lived in Germany. But what did she have there? Miniature roles in some performances, two or three shootings in short films and one role, a little more - in the film “Travel without return”, for which she won a prize at the Golden Orange International Film Festival.
Before filming in Turkey, the actress had a creative break of about 6 months. There were no roles. Things were such that it was not always possible to buy a cup of coffee. Sometimes I had to walk, because there were no means to travel. Everything went very well in Turkey. However, later circumstances turned not in favor of the young movie star. That’s why Meriem Uzerli left The Magnificent Age before filming was completed.
How was the shooting in Turkey?
I had to work here for 14 hours a day. But the fees were growing rapidly, as well as the ratings of the series. Meri reinforced studied the Turkish language. In addition, she had to lose weight. But the crowds of fans, good money and fame more than compensated for all the difficulties.
In Istanbul, expensive apartments were rented for her. The producers bought a personal treadmill for the actress, which cost a lot of money. They even provided a personal driver for Meriem Uzerli. Why did the actress leave the series “The Magnificent Century”, which could finish some more episodes and leave as planned by the producers?
The situation needs to be examined more deeply. According to Meri herself, she needed a special friend with whom in the evening she could share her feelings and experiences, with whom she could feel confident and protected. However, the person she chose was not the same. But he made her a child happy. Now Meriem is the happy mother of a beautiful girl.
How did this happen?
The actress met her lover through a colleague on the series Nebahat Chehre. He literally immediately showed interest in her. Meriam was afraid to admit to herself that she was also carried away by businessman Jan Atesh. At first she invited him to remain friends. But, apparently, several romantic encounters made her change her mind, and she completely surrendered to her feelings. Everyone found out about a couple of Jan Atesh and Meriem Uzerli. The Magnificent Century has become a series not only of her finest hour, but a meeting place with her daughter's father.
There were also people who warned the actress about the wrong choice. It was said that he left his wife with two children, that he walks left and right, that he always chooses a partner for himself, due to whom he can have a good PR. But when Meriem learned about all this, it was too late. She was dominated by feelings.
Knowing her beloved closer, the actress realized that he was not so cheerful, that he had chronic depression, that his affairs were not entirely successful. She got pregnant. And he did not want his girlfriend to give birth. For her, the shooting should have come to a certain logical conclusion. The producers began the task of looking for a new Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska for the series "The Magnificent Century."
Why was the actress Meri Uzerli replaced by Wahid Gerdyum?
Common sense took up over the feelings of a young actress. She understood that she needed to run away, and as soon as possible, from her lover. Because of this whole situation and his behavior, she almost took her own life. Until now, Meriem believed that this was just a difficult period in his life, but then she understood all her errors. The burden was overwhelming. Meri herself needed support now. She fled to Germany, where for some time she had to see a doctor to improve her health and give birth to her beautiful daughter.
Wahide Gerdyum did not immediately agree to play the role of Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska Sultan. Before accepting the offer from Tims Production, she tried to reach Mary in Germany. However, they say that calls remained unanswered.
The new actress agreed to shoot in the series "The Magnificent Century." The reason for the departure of Mercury Uzerli became obvious to her.
It is interesting that the name of Wahide Perchin will be indicated in the credits of the series for the new Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska. This is the maiden name of the actress. Before this film, she starred as Gerdyum for 22 years. After the divorce, Wahide returned her last name.
Commenting on all the attacks from the fans of the "Magnificent Century" in their turn, the new Alexandra Anastasia Lisowska emphasized that the film should be about 52 years old. And she can't look like a young Meriem. And viewers will eventually understand this and accept a new actress.
How did Meriem go after the series The Magnificent Century?
Uzerli improved her emotional health, gave birth to a daughter, and gave her her last name. With the money she earned, Meryem bought a house in Germany and completely plunged into motherhood. Her photos with her daughter could be seen on social networks. However, she was in no hurry to show her face.
Various glossy magazines often offered considerable money to the actress so that she would make a photo shoot with her daughter. However, Meriem refused to earn money on a child.
Acting until the series “The Magnificent Century” ends, the actress could not. Although the offers of roles were mainly from Turkish producers.
The return to Turkey was indicated by filming in the movie "Queen of the Night." Meriu is the owner of a difficult character. They say that for the sake of her even some moments in the script were rewritten, since the actress refused to withdraw until there are amendments.
Despite the fact that the new series did not become a cult and did not occupy the first positions in the ranking, Meriem can earn a living. She starred in commercials, has her own cosmetic line MERYEM Cosmetics.
A little biography
Uzerli was born on 08/12/1983 in Kassel (Germany). Even the actress's grandfather paved the way for Germany for his future descendants. Here he worked. After he returned to Turkey and married. He had 4 children. Among them is Father Meriem, Hussein Uzerli - the eldest. For him, Europe has always been interesting. In Germany, he went to university. There he met Ursula, his wife. She was a divorced woman and had two children. These were the 70s of the XX century. Father Meryem so loved her mother that he married her and adopted her children.
Mom is Catholic, and father is Muslim. But the main thing in the Uzerli family was to love loved ones, accepting them as they are.
Life experience
Meryem herself felt more German. The family went to Turkey in the summer for two weeks. Although the actress admits that she loves Turkish music and Turkey itself. But, of course, Meriem received education in Germany. She was a member of social projects, throughout the year she worked as a volunteer for cancer patients. Her mother also suffered from this disease, but courageously defeated him. All the time, Meri’s illness of her mother was next to her. Studied during the day, and went to the hospital in the evening. And the miracle happened! Mom recovered.
The actress later admitted that such a hard experience teaches a lot to a person. She learned to value life. For another whole year, Uzerli worked with children with leukemia. She lost her best friend in a car accident and, in order to better understand death, put on makeup for religious rites.
Choosing a university, the actress simply jabbed a finger at the laid out profiles. So she ended up in Hamburg. Three years later, Meriem completed her studies and began to take part in theater projects. And then she went to Berlin, played in several films and at some point was on the set of the series "The Magnificent Century."
