Interesting facts

Don't Come Out is a 2026 Dominican Republic coming-of-age drama horror film directed, produced, and written by Victoria Linares Villegas in her fiction feature directorial debut, from a screenplay she wrote with Carlos Alberto Marranzini Rodríguez. It stars Cecile van Welie as Liz, a closeted woman who goes on a weekend trip with her friends. It also stars Camila Issa, Gabriela Cortés, Camila Santana, and Mariela Guerrero.

Production

In an interview with Diva, Villegas said that the film was inspired by an image that her co-writer Carlos Marranzini had in his head: "four girls driving on a highway in the dead of night, covered in blood". They tried to uncover the story behind that image through the film. Regarding the film genre, Villegas told Caribbean Beat that she felt that "horror could be a broader way of exploring the dangers of coming out" in Dominican Republic.
