The series was filmed on the TRT International Film Studios at various locations including Sakarya, Istanbul and Kocaeli. Turkish musician Gökhan Kırdar composed the opening theme while Kazakh musicians composed other music using instruments from the Turkic world. The television series went through a 13-month preparation time in which details were meticulously planned, although The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice includes a few historical inaccuracies. In 2021, the production company Akli Film was accused of mistreating its set workers. The television series has been heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in Turkey.

The show has been well received in Turkey, being called a "record-breaking television series", and has been compared with other series. The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice gained popularity in Turkey because of the casting of famous actors, and it has become popular in countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan and Kyrgyzstan.

A prequel series, Alparslan: Büyük Selçuklu, focusing on the life of Alp Arslan, was released on 8 November 2021.^[3][4]

Production

The series has attracted attention with its actors, costumes, historical locations and story.^[1] The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice is written by Serdar Özönalan, directed by Sedat İnci and produced by Emre Konuk.^[86] After three years of scenario work, every detail was meticulously prepared over 13 months. 350 décor employees, 100 carpenters and a team of 60 people took part on two separate backlots, in which many locations in the series were built. 5000 accessories and costumes, of which 3500 pieces belong to the period, were manufactured in special costume workshops.^[87][46] The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice is the most costly television series produced in Turkey after Diriliş: Ertuğrul. Two cities are built on three backlots and the enormous budget also includes construction fees and the actors' fees.^[88] It is produced by Akli Film, a production company new to the Turkish television industry who has been working with TRT for three years. The production company says that it has a guaranteed contract with TRT for at least 33 episodes or one season. If the series continues, it is expected to have five or six seasons.^[88]

Casting

The series includes many popular Turkish actors^[89][90] including Buğra Gülsoy, one of the lead actors, who was noted to have celebrated his birthday on set with his family.^[6] After Barış Arduç met with the producer of The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice,^[91] he was expected to join the cast.^[92][93][94] When Hatice Şendil, who portrays the role of Terken Hatun, was asked if Arduç would be joining the cast in the season finale, she said, "I don't know, but I think he will be [joining the cast]".^[95] Arduç is still rumoured to appear in the series in the role of Berkyaruk.^[95] The cast of another popular Turkish television series Çukur have been said by Turkish media to be leaving the series "one by one" to join The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice.^[91] The television series also cast an Albanian actor Nik Xhelilaj to play the role of Yorgos.^[96][97] Buğra Gülsoy, and other members of the cast were interviewed about what they thought of the show. Gülsoy said, "I think that the new generation has started to investigate the Seljuk period again thanks to the series."^[7][98] It was also rumoured that Kenan İmirzalıoğlu, who is interested in history, would join the series' cast however, he responded to these theories in an announcement saying that he wouldn't be joining.^[99] Birsen Altuntaş reported in May 2021 that Sevda Erginci and İsmail Ege Şaşmaz would leave the series after the first season, but Abdul Süsler would join the series in the final episodes in the role of "Kıpçak Bey".^[100]

Training

The actors received horse riding and sword training by the action director of the Kazakh Nomad Stunts team, who choreographed Hollywood movies for a month. The actors, who worked on fitness, continuity and coordination, went through a challenging training program in this process.^[101] Janbi Ceylan, who portrays Aydoğdu,^[41] was also responsible for the horse-training of the cast.^[102]

Filming

According to the producer Emre Konuk [tr], the series is filmed on the TRT International Film Set"^[9] It was specifically filmed at various locations including Sakarya, Istanbul and Kocaeli.^[103] The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice came to the screen with the longest battle scene and production details in Turkish television history.^[104] A total of 400 actors, excluding the main ones, 100 of them on horseback, took part in the battle scene.^[105] Preparation took 60 days, and the shooting took eight days.^[87] The actors received horse riding and sword training by the action director of the Kazakh Nomad Stunts team, who choreographed Hollywood movies for a month. The actors who worked on fitness, continuity and coordination went through a challenging training program during this process.^[101]

For the battle scene in the first episode, 45 stuntmen and 120 supporting actors were given tough action and choreography training by Nomad Stunts for 15 days at the shooting location.^[101] During the shootings, ambulances, medical teams and veterinarians were present in case of any negative situation.^[46][87] The horse trainers provided by the Nomad Stunt team travelled around various cities of Anatolia, and only 15 horses among 150 horses, which were available for training, were included in the project.^[101] Horses were trained for a period of one month. Archery training was provided to the cast by a different company.^[87][46] In 2021, around 260 set workers left their jobs accusing Akli Film of leaving them with difficult working conditions, lack of payment, lack of hygiene and being subject to mobbing. Although the production company promised to solve the issues experienced by the set-décor workers, Turkish media said they took no action. Organisations later took notice criticising Akli Film and asking them to listen to their demands as soon as possible.^[106] In a statement, Konuk said that Azerbaijani Culture Minister Anar Karimov visited the set.^[107] According to journalist Birsen Altuntaş, the first season of the series will end with 36 episodes,^[108] while other sources say that the same journalist said that there will be 33 episodes.^[109]

Music

"It was a project that I enjoyed and loved very much. I congratulate our producer, director and the entire team for all the scenes that have been finely and carefully created and the visual feast they have served. I researched but also, imagined, the music used in the [Seljuk] period and I tried to bring together tunes in accordance with the spirit of the period and the scenes presented."

—Gökhan Kırdar, one of the composers^[121]

 

 

(L to R), the Kazakh dombra and the komuz were used in the series

While the compositions for the series were prepared to reflect the atmosphere of the scenes, the music was played with the instruments used in the Turkic world.^[122][123] Musicians who performed using Central Asian instruments such as the dombra, kyl kyyak, komuz, and sybyzgy were featured in the works supported by master musicians in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.^[124] Kazakh composer Ercan Arkabay, who starred in the Kuruluş: Osman series, also said that he will be doing something for The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice.^[125] The album of first season music was released on 30 October 2020.^[126] In a statement, Gökhan Kırdar, one of the composers, stated that he was happy that he was involved in a great project that would reflect the period in which a unique civilization was built.^[121] The eulogy performed by the disciples of Gazzâlî was sung by Turkish musician Mehmet Öncel.^[127] Ermek Kazıbekov, a member of the team of Kyrgyz youth dubbing the series in their native language, said that he was impressed by the fact that traditional Kyrgyz instruments were used in the series.^[128] There are 71 tracks. The first track is by Gökhan Kırdar, nine tracks are by Hassak, a world-famous Kazakh band that were there to add "colour" to the songs,^[129] and the rest are by Batuhan Fırat.^[130] This is a list of selected songs:

Historical accuracy

Emre Konuk confirmed he had to do a lot of research on the historical figures presented in the series.^[132] However, the TV series has a few historical inaccuracies. One is that the Seljuk state has been shown to be run by a nomadic tribe and that the Seljuks began to shed blood from the first episode when they actually were a people of peace. Turkish media has accepted that The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice is not a documentary but a historical TV series meaning and can include many fictionalised features.^[133]

Reception

Like other Turkish TV series revolving around history, The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice has been popular in Bangladesh^[134] and Pakistan.^[135] It was also well received in Kyrgyzstan. A group of Kyrgyz youth decided to dub the series in their native language.^[136]

Critical response

The 13th episode attracted great attention with a particular scene^[35] and the 23rd episode of the "record-breaking TV series"^[47] was eagerly awaited by Turkish fans.^[137] The series, whose first episode reached the top of the ratings in Turkey, was so well-received it was the only Turkish TV series to be included in the daily hits section of newspaper The Wit.^[138] Arab journalist Mohammed Abu Rumman compared it with other Turkish television series including Kuruluş: Osman, Kurtlar Vadisi, Payitaht: Abdülhamid and Diriliş: Ertuğrul, which became popular globally.^[139][140] As mentioned, the television series has been well received in Bangladesh. Speaking to Anadolu Ajansi, a Bengali professor stated that the Turkish television series revolved around history, including The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice should be watched by people of all ages.^[134] Muharrem Kesik says that The Great Seljuks: Guardians of Justice, which contains many historical inaccuracies, is not a documentary but a historical TV series meaning that it can include many fictionalised features.^[133]
