Alev Irmak was born in 1980 and holds Austrian nationality. She grew up in Vorarlberg and began her career in Vienna, building a strong base in Austrian theatre and television. Her early stage work earned her the Nestroy Spezialpreis for the best off-production Habe die Ehre in 2014 and the Kulturpreis Vorarlberg in 2015. She became widely known through her long-running role in the ORF series Copstories, directed by Barbara Eder, Umut Dağ, Christopher Schier, and later through Vorstadtweiber and Altes Geld, directed by David Schalko.

The ARD/ORF series Am Anschlag – Die Macht der Kränkung directed by Umut Dağ paved her the way for entry into the German market.

Her screen credits also include the Berlinale premiered Kuma (2011), the Netflix series How to Sell Drugs Online (Fast), and the series A Better Place.

Her most recent work: Faraz Shariat’s Berlinale Panorama film Staatsschutz (2025), the ARD/ORF series Gnadenlos, and the international co-production Each of Us, directed by Anne Zohra Berrached.
