Jacob Elordi Gives ‘Wuthering Heights’ Production Update & Praises Emerald Fennell’s Adaptation As “Breathtaking”

Jacob Elordi is thrilled for audiences to see his upcoming role as romantic antihero Heathcliff in Emerald Fennell’s adaptation of *Wuthering HEIGHTS*, which recently wrapped filming on another project but is resuming soon. He praises Fennell’s direction and the stellar cast, including Margot Robbie as Catherine Earnshaw, calling their performances “breathtaking” and the production a true epic with stunning visuals and a beautiful script. The film, set for a February 13, 2026 release, faced backlash over casting a white actor for Heathcliff in Fennell’s take on the novel, which originally features a dark-skinned gipsy character.
