Sabahattin Ali’s masterpiece “Madonna in a Fur Coat” is being arranged to have its own screen adaptation by a company we’d like to keep unnamed for now. The production company seem to have acquired the rights for the work but final decision about whether it’ll be a television series or a movie is yet to be decided. It is also reported that the adaptation is expected to be released for the 2017-2018 season.

The novel is the choice of a large number of readers and still remains a best-seller. There’s a good chance the adaptation may very well be a partnership between a local production company and an international one. Provided that Filiz Ali, the heiress to Sabahattin Ali and known to be of meticulous nature, gives the greenlight for the project, the audience is sure to witness a successful adaptation. We can’t wait to hear the rest of the story and eventually see it. In the meantime, we’ll keep you updated!
