Coming from the brand behind The Red Room and Verdeelde Liefde
International distributor Eccho Rights has added Golden Boy, the latest drama series from OGM Pictures in Turkey, to its catalogue, launching the series at MIPCOM this October.
The highly anticipated new title is the latest from the creators of hit series My Home My Destiny (Verdeelde Liefde), The Red Room , and Chrysalis, which itself just returned for a new season having dominated ratings in Turkey since April 2021.
Golden Boy is a classic family drama that tells the story of two sisters whose paths cross with the heir to a family full of betrayal, lies and secrets. 'OGM Pictures continues to push the boundaries of television production in Turkey, and Golden Boy is another remarkable series, that fans are already in love with', says Handan Özkubat , director of Turkish Drama at Eccho RIghts.
On air for two weeks on Star TV in Turkey , the series has already established itself as the clear leader in Friday night prime time with more than 6 million viewers tuning in for the second episode. Suna is to be wed to Ferit, the heir to the Korhan jewellery empire, but having never met his bride to be, Ferit - a spoilt casanova who is not interested in settling down - happens upon her younger sister Seyran. He is totally captivated by the younger woman, and if he is to marry anyone, he is determined it will be her.

Classic sitcom might make way to a new generation of viewers
In a recent interview on Fox News, Frankie Muniz revealed he and his wife had recently binged all 151 episodes of Malcolm in the Middle, which ran from 2000 to 2006, and it gave him a bit of reboot fever. The show's creator then confirmed to sources that they are indeed "talking about it."
"When I was filming the show, I obviously was a kid," Muniz said. "We did seven seasons, 151 episodes. I didn't really watch the show when it was on, but I've now since watched the show with my wife. All 151 episodes. I realized, 'Wow, that's what we were making.' I can separate myself from being on it and watching it as a fan. I would love to know what the family's up to."
The Surreal Life star also claimed that his TV dad Bryan Cranston was "really into the idea" of a revival and that Cranston was "kind of heading writing the script and getting everything rolling. So, there might be something. I would be down 100 percent."
