New York Times Bestseller Wraps Romantic Thriller in Las Cruces

"Don't Forget Me Tomorrow" Wraps, Employing Over 35 Locals

SANTA FE - A gripping romantic thriller based on the work of a New York Times bestselling author found its dramatic, picturesque home in New Mexico.

“Don't Forget Me Tomorrow” wrapped production in Ruidoso in September, utilizing the unique beauty of the southern New Mexico mountain town to enhance its intense narrative. Directed by Travis Mills and starring Charlotte Kirk (“The Reckoning”), Britton Webb, Darren Weiss (“Inside Man”), and Alessandra Williams, and produced by Kirk and Karlos Ways, the film tells a story of second chances haunted by a criminal past.

The film is set in the small town of Time River, where single mother Dakota Cooper (played by Kirk) leads a quiet life that is upended when Ryder Nash, her brooding childhood crush, returns from prison. As old feelings reignite, Ryder tries to escape his criminal past, but a dangerous figure won't let him go. When a break-in threatens Dakota and her son, Ryder steps in to protect them, forcing both to confront painful choices made years ago as Dakota decides whether to trust him with her heart—and her future.

The production hired over 35 New Mexicans for its crew and talent.

"I’m incredibly excited to be filming this beautiful story in New Mexico, Kirk stated. “It’s such a special place, rich in character and natural beauty, and the perfect backdrop for this romantic film, based on the work of a New York Times bestselling author. I truly believe this will be one of the most romantic and visually stunning stories audiences will see in 2026."

“We greatly appreciate the production choosing Las Cruces as its home for ‘Don't Forget Me Tomorrow,’” stated Steve Graham, director of the New Mexico Film Office. “Every film that lands in a community like this provides essential work for local crew and talent. It highlights the natural character and beauty of southern New Mexico, reinforcing that our state’s film ecosystem is robust and beneficial in every corner.”
