Hot on the heels of “Saltburn,” Emerald Fennell and Jacob Elordi has cooperated for Another work by British class comments. The “Euphoria” star leads Fennell’s upcoming adaptation of Emily Bronté’s novel “Wuthering heights“Alongside Margot RobbieA project that immediately became the city’s conversation when it was out on the market in 2024.
The film eventually landed at Warner Bros. (Despite reports of a more lucrative offer from Netflix for an emissions of streaming), which has planned for a Valentine Day weekend 2026 edition.
Despite the star power that was attached to both sides of the camera, the “Wuthering Heights” source was the source of some controversy when it was first announced. Elordi plays Heathcliff, the romantic anti -hero who is discovered in the streets before being admitted by a rich member of Britain’s landed gentlemen, just to fall in love with his daughter. Language in Bronté’s original novel suggests that the character is non-white (although he has previously been played by those such as Laurence Olivier, Ralph Fiennes, Timothy Dalton and Tom Hardy), and many voices online suggested that the role should have gone to a color actor.
Casting director of the film, Kharlel Cochrane, defended the Casting election back in April and said at a Questions and answers to Sands Film Festival in Scotland That these things are open to interpretation.
“There will definitely be some English enlightened fans that will not be happy,” said Cochrane. “It was an Instagram comment that said the casting director would be shot. But just wait until you see it, and then you can decide if you want to shoot me or not. But you really don’t have to be correct. It’s just a book. It’s not based on real life. It’s all art.”
Hong Chau, “Saltburn” actor Alison Oliver and Shazad Latif also play in “Wuthering Heights.”
Robbie will then be seen in Kogonada’s “A Big Bold Beautiful Journey”, which she plays in with Colin Farrell. Elordi Movies Currently Season 3 of “Euphoria” and will soon be seen in Guillermo del Toros “Frankenstein” and Ridley Scott’s “The Dog Stars.”
Warner Bros. will release “Wuthering Heights” in theaters on February 13, 2026. Check out the teaser for the film and the first poster, with the caption “Come undone.”
