Haskiri Velazquez as Ava

What started with a just one theatre program grew into a full-fledged passion for Velazquez. During her early days as an actress, she had the opportunity to be directed by Gina Rodriguez, Jesse Williams, and Victor Maog. Soon, she transitioned to TV, landing her first role as Tatiana Garcia in 'NYC 22'. After that, she went on to booking more roles in 'Law & Order SVU', 'Charlotte', 'Blue Bloods'. Most recently, she was cast as Daisy in 'Saved By The Bell'.



 


Nicky Whelan as Valerie

Whelan comes with experience. She may be known for her role in 'Neighbours', but the Australian actress has a slate of film titles to her credit. She starred in 'Hollywood & Wine' alongside David Spade, appeared in the final season of Scrubs, and played the role of Leigh in Owen Wilson's 'Hall Pass'.



 


Cleo Anthony as William

Anthony's journey from an athlete to a screen actor has been an interesting journey laced with surprises. He was a huge 'Bad Boys' fan and secretly hoped he would bag a role in the sequel. According to IMDb, he was at a Miami restroom when an agent stopped him to offer a role in 'Bad Boys II'. He is known for 'Divergent', 'THE PREY: Legend of Karnoctus', and 'Transparent'.  



 


The official synopsis for 'You're Not Safe Here' reads: "Pregnant and feeling trapped, Ava (Velazquez) escapes her abusive boyfriend one stormy night to take refuge at her estranged sister’s house. On the way, she swerves off the road and wakes to find herself in the home of Valerie (Whelan) and William (Anthony). The friendly, affluent, and childless couple live a secluded life in the woods. With nowhere else to turn, Ava’s trust becomes her downfall when she realizes this mysterious couple has sinister intentions for her unborn child."
