Warner Bros. Pictures and MRC’s “Wuthering Heights” from acclaimed filmmaker Emerald Fennell will be released on Feb. 13, 2026, the studio announced on Friday.
The adaptation will star Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi. Additional cast includes Hong Chau, Alison Oliver and Shazad Latif.
The Oscar-winning “Promising Young Woman” filmmaker is coming off the release of last year’s “Saltburn,” which starred Elordi and was released in theaters by Amazon MGM Studios.
Robbie’s LuckyChap is producing and MRC is financing “Wuthering Heights,” which is an adaptation of the 1847 Emily Brontë novel that follows two families living on the moors.
“From the moment we were introduced to Emerald’s vision for the film, and with an incredible cast led by Margot and Jacob, we were instantly committed to forging a partnership with this team to ensure the movie was brought to theaters around the world,” Warner Bros. Motion Picture Group’s Michael De Luca and Pam Abdy said in a statement.
“From our first conversations with Emerald about ‘Wuthering Heights,’ we were inspired by her vision to make something that channels the longing and heartache of the novel while adding her distinctive sensibility and beautiful aesthetic. We are thrilled to partner with Warner Brothers and our friends at LuckyChap to help bring Emerald’s film to audiences around the world,” MRC’s Brye Adler and Jonathan Golfman added.
Robbie and LuckyChap partnered with Warner Bros. on last year’s “Barbie” to gangbusters results, and this is the latest big move by De Luca and Abdy to bring bold filmmakers into the WB fold. They’re also partnering with Legendary on Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s next film starring Tom Cruise and will release J.J. Abrams’ next directorial effort.
