Margot Robbie’s Wuthering Heights Movie Has Apparently Screened, And Audiences Are Calling Horse Rein Sex And More ‘Aggressively Provocative’

by

In Hollywood circles, Emerald Fennell has recently garnered significant attention due to her achievements with “Promising Young Woman” and “Saltburn.” Similarly, Margot Robbie continues to bask in the success of her box office hit, “Barbie.” The announcement of these two powerhouses collaborating on a new take on the timeless “Wuthering Heights” sparked considerable interest. After the film’s first screening, it appears that audiences are expressing quite a range of reactions.

The upcoming film scheduled for release on Valentine’s Day weekend in 2026, as per the current movie schedule, is said to have had a test screening recently in the Dallas area. According to reports from World of Reel following this test screening, it appears that the new adaptation of Wuthering Heights might not be an ideal choice for a romantic date night, but it’s likely to spark plenty of conversations.

Margot Robbie’s Wuthering Heights Is Reportedly Getting A Strong Reaction

If there seems to be a common theme in responses to the movie Wuthering Heights, it appears that viewers are experiencing strong reactions, though these aren’t always favorable. One spectator even described the upcoming screen adaptation of the book as “aggressively provocative and harshly out-of-tune.” Essentially, this new film adaptation strays significantly from typical screen versions of the source material, but given that Emerald Fennell is behind it, such a departure might just be what we’ve come to expect.

The main actors, Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, are receiving positive feedback, despite initial criticism over Elordi’s casting. One viewer at a test screening even praised their acting and the chemistry between them. However, it seems that their powerful performances could potentially be a double-edged sword, as the characters they portray might not be particularly likable, leading some viewers to reportedly struggle to connect with them due to this unlikability.

Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights May Be The Most Graphic Adaptation To Date

If the reports are correct, it’s a certainty that the latest version of “Wuthering Heights” will undoubtedly be the most sensual adaptation to date, and also the most sensual film in Emerald Fennell’s cinematic career, which is indeed noteworthy.

In the movie “Saltburn”, a particular scene involving masturbation generated a lot of discussion. This film appears to be emphasizing or even intensifying this topic, as it’s rumored to contain several scenes of masturbation, aiming to leave viewers feeling somewhat uneasy.

In the film, there’s a particular scene where I refer to a woman being attached to a horse’s reins, which is part of what they call a “BDSM-flavored interaction.” When the movie isn’t explicitly sexual, it leans heavily on implicit sexuality, with the camera zeroing in on images such as egg yolks trickling through fingers and dough being kneaded.

Although these descriptions might be truthful, and we may not know for sure, it doesn’t guarantee that the Wuthering Heights movie coming out next year will perfectly match them. The purpose of test screenings is to evaluate audience response and possibly modify the film based on feedback. We’ll only understand what Wuthering Heights truly looks like when it releases in February.
