Berlin, August 25, 2025 – A quiet life in Hamburg? That ship has sailed! When Mavi (Beritan Balcı) learns that she comes from a wealthy Turkish dynasty, she suddenly finds herself in the spotlight in Istanbul,catapulted from an orderly life straight into the heart of a world filled with glamour, tradition, and quite a lot of chaos. 

For Mavi, Istanbul becomes much more than just Bosporus romance – she encounters a family she never knew existed, led by her resolute grandmother Yadigar (Meral Perin), head of the family and the company with a steely gaze and a rock-solid plan. Her mission? Mavi must leave her old world in Hamburg behind, including her boyfriend Can (Sinan Güleç) and BFF Nora (Caroline Daur), to join the successful family business. To make this happen, Yadigar hatches a plan, enlisting the help of the desirable Kent (Serkan Çayoğlu) – charming, successful, and suspiciously perfect. With his help, the glamorous adventure on the Mediterranean is supposed to make Mavi's life in Hamburg, and especially her boyfriend Can, look old.

Between high society in Istanbul and a fair share of romantic chaos, Mavi must listen to her heart: Will she fight for her love with Can? Or has she found a new home in Istanbul and the family she has always longed for? The trailer released today gives another taste of the German-Turkish rom-com that will certainly sweeten the late summer.

She Said Maybe launches exclusively on Netflix on September 19.
