The collaboration between Fennell, Robbie, and Elordi is highly anticipated, given their track records of success in the industry.
As the production gears up for filming, fans of the classic novel are eager to see how Fennell will bring her unique vision to the screen. With Robbie and Elordi leading the cast, Wuthering Heights is poised to be a must-watch movie for fans of romantic dramas and literary adaptations.
