Margot Robbie Dazzles in 18th-Century Gothic Glam at Wuthering Heights Premiere
Margot Robbie brings 18th-century gothic glamour to the Wuthering Heights red carpet with Jacob Elordi by her side, as critics weigh a bold remake.
Margot Robbie stepped onto the red carpet wearing an exquisitely tailored gown that channels an 18th-century Gothic vibe—think dark velvet, corseted silhouettes, and dramatic detailing—setting the tone for the Wuthering Heights premiere.
Her co-star Jacob Elordi joined the scene, and the two actors greeted fans amid camera flashes as whispers about the Emily Brontë adaptation swirled. The film, a fresh take on the classic, reimagines the story with modern sensibilities while leaning into moody, romantic atmospherics.
Critical reaction is split. One major outlet described the film as overwrought and oversexualised, a Valentine’s Day release that simplifies the original narrative. The critique notes that much of the film's essence feels pared back or misaligned with Brontë's depth.
Robbie and Elordi have spoken about their on-screen chemistry, saying it came naturally and helped anchor the performances, even as some viewers question the balance between steamy tension and storytelling. Audiences are curious to see how the era's mood translates to today's cinema.
With mixed reviews and a high-fashion moment on the red carpet, Wuthering Heights is shaping up as a conversation starter for fans of gothic romance and period drama alike. Viewers will decide whether the bold reinterpretation holds up beyond premiere night.
