Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi Share Strong On-Set Bond During Filming of Wuthering Heights

Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, co-stars in Emerald Fennell’s upcoming adaptation of Emily Brontë’s classic novel Wuthering Heights, have revealed a unique off-screen connection while filming. Robbie, 35, admitted in a Fandango interview that she quickly became emotionally reliant on Elordi, describing herself as codependent with co-workers and devastated when projects end. She recalled how Elordi would often stay nearby during filming, observing her character, which she found initially unsettling but soon became accustomed to. Elordi, 28, echoed her sentiments, calling it a ‘mutual obsession’ and praising Robbie as an elite actor. The two actors’ on-set rituals, including playing Kate Bush’s song “Wuthering Heights” on the Moors, helped them embody the story’s intense emotions of love and longing. The film features an ensemble cast including Shazad Latif, Hong Chau, Alison Oliver, Charlotte Mellington, and Owen Cooper, and is co-produced by Robbie’s LuckyChap Entertainment alongside her husband, Tom Ackerley. Filming in the English countryside allowed the cast to immerse themselves fully in the novel’s atmosphere. Wuthering Heights is set to release in theaters on February 13, 2026.
