Emerald Fennell‘s adaptation of the classic gothic romance “Wuthering Heights” is coming to the big screen just in time for Valentine’s Day. Warner Bros. will release the film on Feb. 13, 2026.
Fennell serves as writer, director and producer on the project based on Emily Brontë’s 1847 novel, which stars Margot Robbie, Jacob Elordi, Hong Chau, Alison Oliver and Shazad Latif. MRC and Robbie’s LuckyChap also produce.
“Wuthering Heights” marks the second collaboration between MRC, LuckyChap and Fennell after the breakout hit “Saltburn,” and the third collaboration with LuckyChap and Fennell (“Promising Young Woman”).
The project sparked a bidding war, with Netflix offering a staggering $150 million for the film. However, the “Wuthering Heights” filmmakers accepted Warner Bros.’ $80 million bid, opting for Warners film chiefs Michael De Luca and Pamela Abdy’s pitch for a wide theatrical release and a full marketing campaign.
