Wuthering Heights fans have one major complaint as striking first trailer lands for new adaptation

by

The initial trailer for Emerald Fennell’s reinterpretation of ‘Wuthering Heights‘ was released, sparking a significant concern among the audience.

As a gaming enthusiast, I can’t wait to catch the upcoming movie adaptation of Emily Brontë’s timeless tale! In this reimagining, the charismatic Jacob Elordi steps into the role of Heathcliff, while the brilliant Margot Robbie portrays Catherine ‘Cathy’ Earnshaw.

The film was crafted by Fennell, featuring Owen Cooper from Adolescence as a youthful Heathcliff, along with Alison Oliver known for Saltburn, Shazad Latif from Magpie, Hong Chau, and Ewan Mitchell from House of the Dragon.

Or:

Fennell wrote, directed, and produced the movie, which includes Owen Cooper from Adolescence as a young Heathcliff, Alison Oliver (from Saltburn), Shazad Latif (Magpie), Hong Chau, and Ewan Mitchell (House of the Dragon) in its cast.

What to Read Next

Yesterday, an intriguing new teaser trailer for the upcoming movie was unveiled, offering sneak peeks of the characters and hinting at an intensely passionate romance developing between Cathy and Heathcliff.

As I was discussing the latest book release with fellow gamers, one of them asked, “Were you reading the same book as me? It seems like we had a different experience.” Another gamer expressed their anticipation, saying, “I feel the need to re-read this book after the teaser. Please, let’s hope it doesn’t disappoint.

A perplexed spectator remarked: “Were we reading the same story? More crucially, where can I find Kate Bush?

As a devoted gamer, I must admit, this new version of the game feels nothing like the original one I’ve grown fond of. Another player echoes my sentiments, stating, “It doesn’t seem to be the very game that had me shedding tears of emotion every time I replayed it.

Simultaneously, some readers of the book expressed their thoughts about the movie in the comment section, speculating on what Charlotte Brontë might have thought.

As a fellow literature enthusiast, I’d like to express my sincere apologies to Emily Brontë. It’s clear she wouldn’t approve of the modern adaptations being made to her timeless work. If she could see these changes, I imagine she’d be flipping with surprise and excitement in her grave!

Some individuals expressed greater enthusiasm about the teaser than others, with one Instagram user exclaiming: “Goodness gracious! You wouldn’t believe it. I’M OVERWHELMINGLY EXCITED!

In a subtle way, this book captivates me greatly! There are numerous unsaid aspects that need our imagination to complete. Moreover, I believe no film has yet accurately portrayed Cathy’s intensity equal to Heathcliff’s. As one commenter put it.

Wuthering Heights is released in cinemas on Valentine’s Day 2025.

The latest print issue from Digital Spy is out now! You can purchase the “Oasis – Live in ’25” magazine at your local newsstands or online for only £8.99.
