Ebru Yapıcı was born in Ankara and studied film and television at Marmara University and Mimar Sinan University.[3] The Ceylans starred together in the 2006 film Climates, which they also co-wrote, beginning a writing collaboration that would include Three Monkeys (2008), Once Upon a Time in Anatolia (2011) and the Palme d'Or-winning Winter Sleep (2014).[2]

Nuri Bilge described their writing relationship, which Ebru opted to end after Winter Sleep, saying "Since she is my wife she has the right to say anything. We fight a lot actually, sometimes till the morning, but it's very useful".[2] For Winter Sleep, Ebru received a nomination for the European Film Award for Best Screenwriter.[4]

Ebru resumed her writing collaboration with Nuri Bilge, now with Akin Aksun, for The Wild Pear Tree (2018).[5]
