Duru Yücel
Duru Yücel is a Turkish actress and screenwriter who is fluent in English and speaks Spanish and Romanian enough to play non-native Spanish and Romanian-speaking roles. Even before studying theatre for a year at the age of 10, which led to her first appearance on stage with two different characters in the same play, she knew very clearly that she wanted to be an actress.
Duru later chose to study English-Turkish Interpretation and Translation in college but her passion for acting never stopped
haunting her, so she continued her education with three years of acting and art training at The Studio Players in Istanbul, where she performed multiple times with them. She also acted in various TV series, commercials, and worked with international film festivals, hosting esteemed guests such as the late Golden Globes President Lorenzo Soria. From 2021 onwards she began wearing other hats as judge and jury member for festivals such as FilmQuest and World Monologue Film Festival.
Duru Yücel's most recent cinematic venture is We Put the World to Sleep, an independent feature film 9 years in the making she stars in and also produced and co-wrote. Directed by Adrian Țofei , the movie is the second part of their spiritual trilogy.
Duru adores jazz and has a demo album of ten classical jazz songs which received good feedback from the music industry. Swimming, yoga, traveling, spending time in nature, learning about the ways of the world and the causes she has the privilege to support, the topics of literature, painting, architecture, health, psychology, spirituality, science, and history are some of her other interests.
