Margot Robbie says she became "co-dependent" on 'Wuthering Heights' co-star Jacob Elordi throughout filming

Margot Robbie described a near co-dependent bond with Jacob Elordi during filming, highlighting their intense on-set dynamic in Emerald Fennell's modern Wuthering Heights adaptation.

  • After seeing Jacob Elordi in Saltburn, Emerald Fennell pursued adapting Emily Brontë's 1847 novel Wuthering Heights, taking the project to Warner Bros. following a bidding war.
  • Elordi often lingered on set near Robbie, watching her performance until she said she `had to ask him to leave`; he called their bond a `mutual obsession`.
  • After the September 2025 teaser and November full trailer, critics noted anachronistic wardrobe and overt eroticism, while Jacob Elordi’s casting prompted backlash as Margot Robbie called him `incredible`.
  • Joining a long line of adaptations, Emerald Fennell’s film follows a century of Wuthering Heights versions, from Laurence Olivier 1939 to Ralph Fiennes 1992, filming in Yorkshire Dales National Park.
