There are so many thoughts to be had about the little scraps of information we’ve been given so far about Emerald Fennell’s adaptation of Wuthering Heights, starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi (remember the early shots of Robbie’s possibly anachronistic wedding dress?). But now, we’ve finally been given some proper food in the form of a 90-second teaser trailer.
Here, without further ado, find every single thought I had about the new Wuthering Heights trailer:
- Am I the only one who constantly croons Kate Bush’s “Wuthering Heights” in my head—against my will and at top volume—whenever this movie is brought up?
- HEATHCLIFF! IT’S MEEEE, I’M KATHYYY, I’VE COME HOME!
- Okay, sorry, I’m done.
- For now.
- Okay, I cannot lie; I watched 10 full seconds of what turned out to be very much a fan edit thinking it was the actual trailer, but now we’re back on track.
- Margot, drop the blush rec, because the apples of those cheeks are poppin’.
- I will never get enough slow, intense shots of hands kneading bread.
- Let alone set to “Everything is romantic” by Charli XCX!
- This is, perhaps, the best use of Charli XCX’s oeuvre in recent memory—and I am extremely including Kamala Harris’s 2024 presidential campaign.
- Jacob Elordi’s wig wrangler, take a bow.
- His mutton-chop stylist, however…resign.
- OMG, this pop of red cloak!
- It’s not an Emerald Fennell joint if nobody’s crawling sexily.
- “Do you want me to stop?” “No.”
- Oh, honey, I am seated.
- As is one of my coworkers, whose name shall be withheld but whose comment was: “This looks way better than I expected.”
- It’s going to be a Fennell Fall, I fear!
- Well, actually, the movie comes out on Valentine’s Day 2026, so maybe “Emerald Winter” has a better ring to it.
- To quote Tina Fey on Las Culturistas: “Then Act Three takes a sexually violent turn, and you have to pretend to be surprised by that turn!”
- Emerald, my brightly shining diamond, I pledge to be forever surprised by that turn.
- Is anyone really surprised that I’m perilously excited for this movie? I even stanned Promising Young Woman, for God’s sake!
