OGM Pictures to adapt ‘My Brilliant Friend' for Turkish audience
Fremantle distributed the original across more than 170 territories, with Turkish viewers accessing it through Digiturk, Tabii, Turkcell TV+ and Puhu TV. Wildside, The Apartment, Fremantle and Fandango have revealed plans for the first-ever scripted format adaptation of the internationally acclaimed drama My Brilliant Friend. The new version, based on Elena Ferrante's bestselling Neapolitan novels, will be produced in Türkiye by OGM Pictures, with filming set to begin later this year. Adapted from Ferrante's globally celebrated quadrilogy, published in the US by Europa Editions, the story follows the lifelong bond between two women, Elena and Lila, whose friendship begins in 1950s Naples. The narrative is told from the perspective of Elena Greco, now an elderly writer, who begins documenting their shared history after Lila mysteriously disappears. Speaking about the Turkish adaptation, Amac Us, Senior Vice President Distribution Middle East, Africa and South Eastern Europe, International, Fremantle, said: 'OGM Pictures have a proven track record of producing hits that resonate locally, and we are thrilled to partner with them to bring Elena Ferrante's exquisite story to new audiences. My Brilliant Friend is celebrated for its gripping storytelling, emotional depth and iconic characters. It's a universal and deeply human drama that transcends borders, and we're confident this new adaptation will capture the hearts of viewers in Türkiye.' Onur Güvenatam, Founder of OGM Pictures, commented: 'It is both an honour and a responsibility for us to adapt Elena Ferrante's My Brilliant Friend for Turkish audiences. This universally celebrated masterpiece is more than just a story – it's a profound exploration of human connection, friendship and identity. We at OGM Pictures are committed to bringing this powerful narrative to life with the greatest of care, preserving the authenticity and soul of Ferrante's work while creating an experience that resonates with audiences worldwide.' HBO and RAI previously adapted the novels into a four-season series, which debuted in 2018 and concluded in November 2024 to widespread critical acclaim. Distributed to more than 170 territories by Fremantle, the original series reached Turkish audiences via Digiturk, Tabii, Turkcell TV+ and Puhu TV. My Brilliant Friend was created by Saverio Costanzo and produced by The Apartment and Wildside, both Fremantle companies, alongside Fandango, in collaboration with RAI Fiction and HBO Entertainment. The screenplays were written by Elena Ferrante, Francesco Piccolo, Laura Paolucci and Saverio Costanzo, with Fremantle managing global sales in association with RAI Com.

One killed, dozens injured, as quake hits western Turkey
The quake was felt across several cities in the west of the country, including Istanbul and the tourist hotspot of Izmir. "An 81-year-old person died soon after having been rescued from under the rubble," Turkish Interior Minister Ali Yerlikaya told journalists at Sindirgi, the epicentre of the quake. Another 29 people had been injured, but not seriously, he added. The quake collapsed 16 buildings in Sindirgi and its surroundings, of which four were inhabited, including a three-storey building in the city centre, he said. Several people were pulled alive from the rubble of the three-storey building, where six people were living. The person who died had also been buried under the rubble there before being freed. Earlier, Mayor Serkan Sak had told Turkish private channel NTV: "Four were rescued from the rubble." Efforts to extract two others were ongoing, he added. Some 319 first responders were deployed to the affected zone, AFAD said. The quake hit at 7:53 pm (1653 GMT), with some 20 aftershocks ranging from 3.5 to 4.6 magnitude, according to AFAD. Turkey is crisscrossed by several geological fault lines which have previously caused catastrophes in the country. A quake in February 2023 in the southwest killed at least 53,000 people and devastated Antakya, site of the ancient city of Antioch. At the beginning of July, a 5.8-magnitude tremor in the same region resulted in one death and injured 69 people.
