Wuthering Heights: Margot Robbie-Jacob Elordi Movie Streaming Date

Streaming audiences can get ready to swoon over the the Margot Robbie-led feature adaptation of Wuthering Heights.

HBO Max announced Friday that filmmaker Emerald Fennell‘s romantic drama hits the streaming service on May 1. Jacob Elordi co-stars in the movie that makes its linear debut via HBO on May 2, the same day that a version with American Sign Language will also stream exclusively on HBO Max.

Based on author Emily Brontë’s classic novel of the same name, Warner Bros. released the film theatrically on Feb. 13, and it surpassed $240 million at the global box office. Hong Chau, Shazad Latif, Alison Oliver, Martin Clunes and Ewan Mitchell round out the cast.

Fennell helmed the movie from her own script that is based on Brontë’s book. Fennell, Robbie and Josey McNamara produced the project that hails from LuckyChap and MRC.

Robbie plays Catherine Earnshaw, while Elordi portrays Heathcliff. First published in 1847, the book centers on the pair’s tempestuous relationship that encompasses passion and revenge after they meet while living at the eponymous residence.

In his review of Wuthering Heights for The Hollywood Reporter, chief film critic David Rooney called it “arguably the writer-director’s most purely entertaining film — pulpy, provocative, drenched in blazing color and opulent design, laced with anachronistic flourishes, sexy, pervy, irreverent and resonantly tragic.”

He added, “Often teetering on the verge between silly and clever, it’s Wuthering Heights for the Bridgerton generation, guaranteed to moisten tear ducts and inflame young hearts.”

Robbie’s recent credits also include starring opposite Colin Farrell in Sony’s 2025 release A Big Bold Beautiful Journey. Elordi currently stars in the third season of HBO’s hit series Euphoria and can be seen on the big screen later this year with Ridley Scott’s The Dog Stars.
