Turkey is renowned for its long-running soapy dramas, but The Strange Story of Gustav Maier sees the country taking a decided different approach.
The eight-episode series is billed as “a hilarious love story between a 350-year-old virgin vampire and a perfectly normal woman.”
Umut Aral (“The Protector”) directs from a script by Giray Altınok (“The Prince”), who also stars in the titular role.
Deadline revealed the first image from the show, pictured above.
Produced by Istanbul’s MGX (“The Prince”), The Strange Story of Gustav Maier will stream on Hulu/Disney+. Stay tuned for more details.
