Margot Robbie & Jacob Elordi’s Wuthering Heights Roles Spark Debate
Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi will soon be wandering around the moors.
The Barbie star—who is pregnant with her first child—will reportedly star opposite the Euphoria alum in Emerald Fennell’s upcoming adaptation of Emily Brontë’s novel Wuthering Heights. However, some on social media couldn’t help but question the casting choices for star-crossed lovers Heathcliff and Catherine.
“No hate to Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi but neither of them have enough Psychologically Tortured vibes to play Cathy and Heathcliff,” one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter). “Like a Wuthering Heights adaptation simply needs actors who are weirder.”
Another X user suggested Elle Fanning for the role of Catherine and Dev Patel as Heathcliff, calling them “the casting I would die for.”
“No hate to Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi of course,” the user noted, “but for Wuthering Heights ??? No. Their faces are too modern.”
One observer further claimed Robbie and Elordi were ill-suited for the roles for having “iPhone Face,” a phenomenon described as being too modern-looking to play a character in a period piece—although they noted it wouldn’t deter them from seeing the film.
