Wuthering Heights a perfect pivot for Charli XCX, says co-writer
Charli XCX's 12-track gothic soundtrack for Emerald Fennell's film includes collaborations with John Cale and Sky Ferreira, blending orchestral and songcraft elements.
- On February 13, 2026, Charli XCX released the Wuthering Heights soundtrack and film in cinemas via Warner Bros Pictures, arriving simultaneously.
- Following Fennell’s outreach last Christmas, Charli agreed to work on the score after she said the script’s darker, gothic themes offered a deliberate pivot from Brat.
- The album includes 12 tracks, featuring singles Wall Of Sound, Chains Of Love, the opener House with John Cale, and Sky Ferreira on Eyes Of the World; orchestral parts were recorded at Abbey Road Studios with Finn Keane adding rough violin textures.
- Critics have already praised the soundtrack, with many singling it out despite mixed film reviews, while singles sparked a social media storm and Grammy-winning producer Keane adds credibility.
- Looking ahead, the soundtrack release coincides with Charli’s expanding film roles; later this month she will star in A24’s The Moment, the first co-production from her studio365 venture, and she has multiple other film projects lined up.
