Robbie, who also helped produce Saltburn and Promising Young Woman, hinted that she might be going in front of Fennell’s camera in a January 2024 interview, telling Deadline that she “would love to” star in an Emerald Fennell film and explaining, “It’s a real act of self-control not to snatch up all the roles with her scripts, because all of them are so delicious… I also definitely never want to hold up a production. When Emerald has got a script ready to go, it’s ready to go. It’s not development. It’s not like, ‘Oh, in a year and a half we’ll start piecing this together.’ So, unless that lines up perfectly, I’m not going to be the person that holds it up.”

“It also ends up being an exciting way to work with other actresses we love. We’ve got our wishlist of actresses we love, and as soon as Emerald hands you a script, you’re like, ‘Oh, we could get them now,’” she added. Sounds like things just lined up this time.

Is there a Wuthering Heights release date?

Per Deadline, “The film is in pre-production gearing up for a UK shoot in 2025” – so, 2026-ish. We’ll keep you posted with updates.
