JACOB ELORDI SMOLDERS
Wuthering Heights, Frankenstein +
Get ready to spend Valentine’s Day with Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie; the pair are starring in a stylish, smoldering, and sexy-as-hell new adaptation of Wuthering Heights.
Oscar-winner Emerald Fennell directs the film, reported to be “loosely based” on Emily Bronte’s classic novel. Elordi and Fennell previous worked together on the incredible Saltburn, while the Euphoria actor co-starred with Robbie in a Chanel ad campaign directed by Luca Guadagnino which plays like a suggestive, contemporary teaser for their upcoming feature. 2026’s Wuthering Heights looks to be totally unique, exceptionally exquisite, and phenomenally raunchy.

Those words could also be ascribed to the film’s leading man Jacob Elordi. His introductory role may have The Kissing Booth, Netflix’s teen romance series, but his role on Euphoria demonstrated levels of depth and range. And give him credit for his accent — who would have known he was Australian without hearing an interview?
Elordi has continued to make interesting choices, seeking out creative collaborations with directors like Sofia Coppola (Priscilla) and soulful stories, like this year’s under-the-radar On Swift Horses.
Following Wuthering Heights, Elordi stars in March’s The Dog Stars directed by the legendary Ridley Scott and is expected to begin shooting an adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s The Outer Dark next year opposite Lily-Rose Depp. But Elordi’s true breakout moment is arriving with Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein.

As the Creature, Elordi is unlike any movie monster we’ve been conditioned to expect. Totally his own in a true star-making role—this Creature may be more of a character than a caricature and actually speaks in full sentences, but is still a role requiring so much of its portrayer and Elordi proves he is more than game. Also starring Oscar Isaac, Mia Goth and Christoph Waltz, Frankenstein is now on Netflix.
