Emily Brontë shook the propriety of mid-19th-century England with her sensational gothic romance-horror novel, Wuthering Heights, when it was published in 1847.
Set to star Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, the 2026 film is loosely based on the author’s original work.
Catherine herself is noted as having brown hair, while Margot Robbie retains her blonde look for the adaptation.
With discrepancies rampant throughout the adaptation’s most basic elements, one wonders why Fennell bothered to call it Wuthering Heights and not give it an entirely new title.
Now, the novel is set to be adapted into a feature film by Saltburn director Emerald Fennell.
