Cem Yılmaz was born in 23rd April 1973 in Kocamustafapaşa,Istanbul,Turkey. His family origins go back to Gürün.He was married with Ahu Yağtu in the years between 2012-2013.He has one child named ‘Kemal’.When the journalists asked him that what was the name of his son he said ‘Kemal’ but not ‘Kemal Bebek’ ironically.

WHO

He is a Turkish stand-up comedian,actor and filmmaker and cartoonist,best known for his films G.O.R.A(2004),A.R.O.G(2008) and Yahşi Batı(2010),who has won two Sadri Alışık awards for his roles in Organize İşler(2005) and Hokkabaz(2006)

While studying at the Department of Tourism and Hotel Management of BOĞAZIÇI UNIVERSITY,He started drawing comics for the Turkish humor magazine ‘Leman’.In August 1995 he did his first comedy show in ‘Leman Culture Center’ performing with no serious career intentions as a comedian.

However, after the high response from the crowd he continued his show to attract larger crowds in Beşiktaş Cultural Center where he appeared in over a thousand stand-up comedy shows since, becoming extremely popular; so popular, that people are willing to pay 250 TL for a ticket.

His movie career started in 1998 with a co-starring role in the comedy  (Her şey çok güzel olacak)(Everything’s gonna be great)(1999), directed by Ömer Vargı, and continued with a role in Vizontele (2001), directed by Yılmaz Erdoğan and Ömer Faruk Sorak. 

 He achieved his greatest success by starring in and writing big-budget science-fiction parody G.O.R.A. (2004), also directed by Ömer Faruk Sorak, which despite spending several years in production because of financial and other technical problems became a box-office hit and, according to Rekin Teksoy, "showed that popular cinema was successful in appealing to wide audiences"

He followed this success with a starring role in the comedy Organize İşler (2005), also directed by Yılmaz Erdoğan, for which he won Best Supporting Actor at the 11th Sadri Alışık Awards, and his directorial debut with Hokkabaz (The Magician)(2006), co-directed by Ali Taner Baltacı,  for which he won Best Actor at the 34th Brussels International Independent Film Festival and 12th Sadri Alışık Awards. 

 He has since repeated his box office success with a sequel to G.O.R.A. called A.R.O.G (2008), also co-directed by Ali Taner Baltacı, and comedy Western parody called Yahşi Batı (2010), directed by Ömer Faruk Sorak. 

That same year, he co-starred, alongside veteran actor Şener Şen, in the police drama (Av Mevsimi)(Hunting Season) (2010), written and directed by Yavuz Turgul, and made a special appearance in drama Zephyr (2010), written and directed by Belma Baş.
