Emerald Fennell’s controversial adaptation of Emily Brontë’s classic novel will be released in UK Cinemas on Valentine’s Day 2026.

Written, directed and produced by Emerald Fennell, born in Hammersmith, the Emily Brontë classic ‘Wuthering Heights’ has finally earned its official release date along with a trailer reveal.

Starring ‘Saltburn’ star Jacob Elordi and ‘Barbie’ lead Margot Robbie as the two main characters, Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, many fans have been highly anticipating the release of the adaptation since its initial announcement in July 2024.

With the initial slogan ‘Come Undone’ and movie posters revealed while filming is still in progress in the UK regions of the Yorkshire Dales and Hertfordshire, test screenings have thus far described the release as ‘aggressively provocative’.

The trailer reveals a steamy romance between the two main characters from the Brontë novel. However, many fans of the classic have expressed that they feel the storyline portrayed in the Fennell adaptation has been exaggerated in its sexuality. It does not live up to the romantic standard of the original Gothic book.

‘BRAT’ singer-songwriter Charli XCX has further announced on her Instagram that she is set to produce a soundtrack for the movie.

Catch ‘Wuthering Heights’ in cinemas on Valentine’s Day 2026.
