Netflix's newest addition to its ever-evolving library drops viewers right in the eye of an ambitious romantic tornado, where dynasty, tradition, and power collide. Old Money is a Turkish drama that balances the tension between ambition and prestige, legacy and revival as hearts reach beyond their bloodlines. And out of that flash of potential comes the tale of its dwellers and their roles. 

Istanbul's skyline roars with power, the old regime taut under new pressures as the stellar cast's chemistry breaks through the gilded halls of grandeur.

At its center is Aslı Enver playing Nihal Baydemir, a decaying shipbuilding dynasty heiress whose purpose is to try to save her family's honor in the face of encroaching debt. She faces Engin Akyürek as Osman Bulut, a self-made billionaire whose ambition and quick mind lead him into conflict with the entrenched elite. Alongside them, Dolunay Soysert plays the tough yet loving matriarch of the Bulut empire, and İsmail Demirci, who portrays Mahir Bulut, the oldest and most problematic brother in the Bulut household, with his own devils.

Taro Emir Tekin plays the youngest Bulut brother, Arda Bulut, who is tender but short-tempered. Serkan Altunorak, Selin Şekerci, Sedef Avcı, Zeynep Oymak, Armağan Oğuz, and Ahmet Utlu round out the cast, each adding to the fabric of alliances, betrayals, and desires. The ensemble combines veterans and up-and-coming stars of Turkish television. Some are the personification of the old money with aristocratic presence, while others infuse gritty swagger into upstarts, evolving that very framework as the heiress to a family's lost power, and a nouveau riche tycoon determined to accumulate more, unite in an electric on-screen presence.

While Old Money dashes onto the screens with a refreshing new story, its cast celebrates a delicate equilibrium of experience and experiment. 

Netflix's Old Money boasts Engin Akyürek as the leading man, who is a familiar face in Turkish television and cinema alike. His presence on screen tends to hold firm across high-stakes romantic dramas. Akyürek is best known for his roles such as Kerim Ilgaz in Fatmagül'ün Suçu Ne?, Ömer Demir in Kara Para Aşk, Sancar in Sefirin Kızı, Ömer in Kara Para Aşk, and more. He even has a best actor award in the Seoul International Drama Awards (2015) and a nomination at the International Emmy Awards to his name. 

Meanwhile, Ayten Asli Enver, a Cypriot-Turkish actress, contributes depth to the drama from roles in shows like Suskunlar (2012), Kayip (2013), Bana Artik Hicran De (2014), Mutlu Ol Yeter (2015), and Kis Günesi (2016). Yet another revered face in Turkish theater, cinema, and television for years adds gravitas to the cast, Dolunay Soysert (Yabani, Tozluyaka), bringing her matriarchal weight, while Taro Emir Tekin and the rest inject new energy into the younger characters. With a mix of seasoned leads and up-and-coming talent, Old Money arrived on Netflix's 2025 line-up on October 10, as past glory and faith dance to the rhythm of the future, where love dares to be the most expensive currency of all.
