Academy Award-winning writer and director Emerald Fennell (Saltburn) takes on Emily Brontë’s quintessential gothic novel. A ferocious love story set on the moors, “Wuthering Heights” follows Heathcliff (Elordi) and Catherine (Robbie) as desire gives way to obsession—and vengeance ripples across generations. After decades of adaptations by filmmakers from William Wyler to Luis Buñuel, Emerald Fennell’s glossy reimagining rejects strict fidelity in favor of an unconventional reinvention for a new generation.
