Hollywood stars Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi are all set to star in Academy Award winner Emerald Fennell’s highly anticipated adaptation of the classic novel ‘Wuthering Heights’ as the main characters Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff.

Aside from acting, Margot will also produce the film through LuckyChap, making this production house's third collaboration with Fennell after Promising Young Woman and Saltburn. Additionally, MRC will also produce the film. The film is still in the pre-production phase and will begin the shooting in 2025. Fennell is expected to write, direct, and produce the movie.

Fennell announced her plans to adapt "Wuthering Heights" as her third feature in July, posting a surprise announcement on social media with a post that reads: “Be with me always – Take any form – Drive me mad,” a line from the novel.

Margot Robbie was previously seen in popular films like Suicide Squad and Barbie, which was a big success with a collection of $1.4 billion. On the other hand, Jacob is known for his role of Elvis in ‘Priscilla’ and Nate Jacobs in the popular series ‘Euphoria’.

‘Wuthering Heights’, written by Emily Bronte was published in the year 1847 and is considered as one of the classics in literature. The story follows the challenging love story between Cathy and Heathcliff, the adopted foster son of the Earnshaws.
