Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi have signed on to play doomed lovers Cathy and Heathcliff in a new Wuthering Heights film. Oscar-winning director Emerald Fennell is set to write, direct and produce the latest screen adaptation of Emily Brontë’s classic gothic novel, with filming expected to take place in England in 2025.

Set in the early 19th century and first published in 1847, the book follows the turbulent romance of Catherine and Heathcliff, with Robbie set to play Catherine Earnshaw, and Elordi portraying Heathcliff.

There have been numerous screen adaptations of Wuthering Heights, including director William Wyler’s 1939 version that starred Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon and was nominated for best picture. The 1970 version of Withering Heights featured Anna Calder-Marshall and Timothy Dalton, while Juliette Binoche and Ralph Fiennes headlined a 1992 film adaption, and Charlotte Riley and Tom Hardy played the famous roles in a 2008 miniseries. The most recent film adaptation in 2011 starred Kaya Scodelario as Cathy and James Howson as Heathcliff.
