If you’re a “Wuthering Heights” purist, this 2026 film version may not be for you. If you are a fan of the 1847 book written by Emily Brontë, and you’re burning with curiosity about this, then kill your darlings.

This is very much director Emerald Fennels’ “Wuthering Heights.” There are many reasons this would have people divided — there will be those bothered by how certain characters are missing or changed up, they may not like portrayal of the relationship between Catherine and Heathcliff, or by the casting of Jacob Elordi.
