Another Mercedes Ron young adult romance trilogy is about to take off, aiming to continue attracting fans of her first hit Culpables film series. And to do just that, Prime Video dropped the first look trailer for Dímelo Bajito (Tell Me Softly), unveiling the next chapter in the expanding universe of the New York Times bestselling Argentinian author.
Alicia Falcó (Billionaires’ Bunker, In the Company of Women), Fernando Lindez (Élite), and Diego Vidales (Nudes) lead the cast as Kami, Thiago, and Taylor in this adaptation of the first novel from Ron’s Dímelo (Tell Me) series.
The story centers on Kamila ”Kami” Hamilton, whose seemingly perfect world shatters when the basketball-playing Di Bianco brothers come back into her life after years away. Their unexpected return forces Kami to confront feelings she’s kept buried since their departure.
The brothers had a profound impact on her, with Thiago giving her her first kiss seven years earlier while Taylor offered unwavering protection. But a lot has changed since they left. She has changed, and she’s no longer the girl they remember.
L to R: Diego Vidales, Alicia Falcó and Fernando Lindez star as Kami, Thiago, and Taylor in “Dímelo Bajito.”

Fast cars and races aren’t in the mix this time, but the trailer teases an intense emotional love triangle, angst, competition and of course, sexual tension and attraction. These themes were ever-present in the Culpables trilogy. The final installment of that series, Culpa Nuestra, concluded in October.
The ensemble cast includes Celia Freijeiro (Red Queen) as Chiara, Patricia Vico (Operación Marea Negra) as Anne, Andrés Velencoso (Return to Las Sabinas) as Tino, Eve Ryan (Culpa mía) as Cata, Jan Buxaderas as Dani, and Fernando Nagore as Jules.
Denis Rovira (Punto Nemo) directs from a screenplay by Jaime Vaca (Élite), with Borja Pena (Cell 211, The Courier) and Emma Lustres (Retribution, Infiesto) producing for Vaca Films (Fatum, Sky High).
Building The House of Ron
The film marks the latest collaboration between Prime Video and Ron, part of what’s now called The House of Ron. The partnership has proven remarkably successful, with the Culpable trilogy becoming a global phenomenon. Culpa Tuya became the most-watched international original film on Prime Video at launch, while the franchise’s popularity spawned an English-language adaptation, My Fault: London.
Tell Me Softly represents just one piece of Ron’s expanding screen universe. The second film in the trilogy, Tell Me in Secret, is currently in production in Galicia. Additionally, adaptations of Ron’s Confronted duology, Marfil (Ivory) and Ébano (Ebony), have completed filming and will arrive on Prime Video soon.
Ron’s ability to craft passionate young adult romance stories has translated seamlessly from her original Wattpad novels to screen, attracting devoted fanbases that eagerly await each new release. That powerful viewership that made the Culpable films international hits.
Dímelo Bajito premieres exclusively on Prime Video in over 240 countries and territories starting December 12.
