Jacob Elordi (Saltburn) and Margot Robbie (Barbie) are taking the moors by storm in a Wuthering Heights adaptation that already looks way spicier than anything your AP Lit class discussed.
The upcoming Valentine’s Day 2026 adaptation, helmed by Emerald Fennell, the filmmaker behind Promising Young Woman and the ultra-provocative Saltburn, hasn’t even released a trailer, but it’s already dominating timelines thanks to two converging threads: a star-driven cast debate over Robbie’s age and Elordi’s race, and early-screening chatter about graphic, boundary-pushing scenes that could make this Fennell’s most daring work to date.
With fresh arguments stoked over fidelity versus reinterpretation and discourse similar to what Emily Brontë experienced upon releasing the novel in the 1800s, Fennell managed to turn a classic tale once viewed as unconventional into a culture-war lightning rod again.
Here’s what’s confirmed, what’s contested, and what’s expected of the upcoming release.
What is 'Wuthering Heights' about?
Wuthering Heights is an 1847 novel written by Emily Brontë that recounts the passionate, chaotic, and toxic relationship between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, with the Yorkshire moors as their battleground in a farmhouse called Wuthering Heights. Over the years, and especially as Catherine marries a man named Edgar Linton, Heathcliff becomes consumed by their bond, and his story largely shapes the story, which is told by the Wuthering Heights housekeeper, Nelly.
The novel, the only one Brontë ever wrote, is known for its exploration of themes surrounding obsession, class, and revenge. Although the text itself isn’t explicitly queer, it often hasmany connectionswith queer identity, andstudies have examined the areas of lesbianism and censorship in the text.
Apart from the upcoming adaptation, the novel has received four other major feature screen adaptations, starting in 1939, followed by another in 1992, again in 2009, and the most recent in 2011.
None of them had the same amount of controversy or ire surrounding them, but none of them had Emerald Fennell behind the wheel.

It’s likely you’re already somewhat familiar with Emerald Fennell, especially if you’ve seen Saltburn or Promising Young Woman. Whether you’re familiar with her or not, you can certainly expect to buckle up for an unforgettable and unconventional ride.
Fennell is known for pushing the boundaries onscreen. Anyone who’s seen Saltburn won’t forget that bathwater scene anytime soon, which saw a character drink the bathwater of another character who had just bathed and masturbated in it.
Besides directing, Fennell is also known for her roles as Princess Merkalova in Anna Karenina, Elsa in The Danish Girl, Nurse Patsy Mount in Call the Midwife, Camilla Parker Bowles in The Crown, and Midge in Barbie. She made her directorial debut with Promising Young Woman in 2020, then made shockwaves in 2023 with the release of Saltburn, which was an explicitly gay film following the dynamic between Oscar (Barry Keoghan) and Felix (Elordi).
It also had us officially seated for anything else she ever put her creative mind into.
The casting debate
Fans split early over the casting of Elordi as Heathcliff and Robbie as Catherine. Some argue Robbie reads older than Brontë’s 18-year-old heroine, while others welcome a grown-up refocus on obsession and power.
When footage of Robbie in a wedding dress was released in March, people were quick to note that it wasnot faithful to the book’s time period, which made people wonder what else might not be up to par.

Deadline’s full cast reveal announcing Hong Chau as Nelly and Shazad Latif as Edgar Linton triggered fresh debate about fidelity to the novel’s descriptions versus modern casting priorities. People honed in on Elordi as Heathcliff, whom the text describes as having darker skin without ever identifying his race or nationality. Comparatively, Linton is described as having lighter hair with blue eyes and pale skin, whereas Latif is Pakistani.

According toDeadline, back in April, casting director Kharmel Cochrane defended her casting choice but did admit that “some English Lit fans that are not going to be happy.”
To further Cochrane’s defense, only Andrea Arnold’s 2011 adaptation included a mixed-race actor, James Howson, in the lead, with the others played by Ralph Fiennes, Tom Hardy, and Timothy Dalton.
Apart from that, Cochrane also said in the same Deadline interview that it was “just a book” and that she didn’t “need to be accurate” because “it’s all art.”
She also warned that, if you didn’t like the casting, to “wait until you see the set design because that is even more shocking,” and added that there “may or may not be a dog collar in it.”
Turns out, there’s that and so much more…
NSFW rumors
On August 5, writer Jordan Ruimy released an early reaction post onWorld of Reelthat left him “slightly more intrigued” about seeing the movie himself.
He said the audience reaction was “largely mixed,” with one attendee describing it as “aggressively provocative and tonally abrasive,” which sounds exactly like what we’ve come to expect from Fennell.
But it’s the film’s “hyper-sexualized imagery” that’s left everyone talking, which includes a man ejaculating mid-execution while a nun fondles his visible erection.
There’s also a scene involving a woman “strapped into horse’s reins for a BDSM-tinged encounter” and “several masturbation scenes shot in that now-signature Fennell style—intimate, clinical, and powerfully discomforting.”
— (@)
Despite some of the negative pushback, Ruimy also said it “might not be a bad thing” for this to be the most unusual Wuthering Heights adaptation to date, especially since it unapologetically diverges from its source material.
Robbie and Elordi also reportedly delivered “committed performances” that included “great chemistry,” even if they portrayed “unlikeable” and “cold” characters.
What is the release date for 'Wuthering Heights'?
As of now, no trailer has been released for the movie, but we expect one soon as the early reports start to leak out.
It’s currently set to hit theaters on February 14, 2026.

There can never be too many queer camp classics, and this year another charming, heartwarming, and hilarious title entered the pantheon with the horror comedy musical Big Easy Queens.
The film, which features a pre-RuPaul’s Drag RaceSuzie Toot, follows the epic camp tale of Miss Minnie Bouvèé, the lady mob boss of the French Quarter. After a rival gang member is brutally slaughtered, Minnie is convinced that retribution is coming from her nemesis Poodles Makenzie (Jennifer McClain) and her crew. Instead, who shows up on her doorstep is her estranged sister Mimi (Suzie Toot), whose husband also just so happens to be Minnie’s secret paramour, Jackson (played by singer and songwriter Matthew Darren).
Also plaguing Minnie is a mysterious stalker who leaves her sinister messages and bouquets of gardenias. So Minnie has to hatch a clever and witchy plan to protect her life, her sanity, and her turf.
It’s camp, funny, a little bit bloody, and packed with incredible music. What’s not to love? So naturally, it’s built up a cult fan base of horror fans, drag lovers, and queer folks inspired by the film to create art of their own.
Bouvèé was surprised and delighted by the response from the audience, so PRIDE sat down to talk about what it means to be an artist that inspires others, and how that energy comes right back.

PRIDE: How has the response been to the film? What has surprised you most about the response?
Miss Bouvèé: They love the strong queer characters and, of course, female-presenting characters that are in positions of power and not in oppression.
We set out to show we are in charge, and we will take retribution if you wrong us, and we're strong in that retribution. I think that's been the number one thing they’re connecting to — the strong queer characters, [and] of course, Susie Toot.
Susie was not a RuGirl before we filmed this, you know? But we all knew. She was 23 when we filmed it, and we knew she was not going to be here for long, you know what I mean? So then she got on RuPaul's Drag Race, and, of course, the rest is history. So that's the second thing they're really grabbing onto.
The fan art has been really cool to see. Like, it's a little humbling when you see these sketches and this crazy animated art that must have taken just hours upon hours upon hours to do, and somebody is watching the film and being able to recreate that, and their spin on it. So I like that art is sort of influencing and inspiring other art. And that's kind of cool. That's really, really humbling.

It's better than any award or accolade you could get for your art. I think when art begets other art, it's this beautiful chain reaction that happens. Somebody put out fan art, and then six or seven other people put out their versions of fan art, and it just sort of trickles down.
I'm waiting for the covers. I'd love to hear some covers of the music that is out there! I’m dreaming of the day that a drag queen recreates the iconic phone monologue — I want to see that recreated on a drag stage!
It's the highest compliment you can get — better than any rave review and better than any award, in my opinion. That's what I set out to do: inspire other people and make people go, "Huh? I could do that." I'm a six-foot-one, over-40-year-old drag queen who started a movie and never would have done that if I didn't think, "Hmm, there are other girls and female-presenting performers doing this. I think I can follow in their footsteps. I think I can do that." They motivated me, they lifted me up to do it, too.

Yes, I mean the vast majority — I'll say, of course, there's bad that's out there. And, you know, I try to stay away from it. I just remember there was one critic who was like, "The plot is thin and it's too over the top." We didn't set out to give you Tennessee Williams. We drag queens are over the top by nature, and you just completely overthought it.
We wanted it to be, like, in the lane of Rocky Horror Picture Show. But we didn't want to steal — we wanted to pay homage. We wanted to create something completely new and original, but maybe in the same highway toward that kind of campy culture.
How has the horror community responded to the film?
The horror people are the ones really kind of doing the most of the artwork. If you go and look at their threads and see their Instagram, they, of course, have an affinity for drag, and they really love drag in itself. But I think the horror community is, by nature, very queer-friendly. It doesn't surprise me that the community has really been the first and biggest embrace we've had. And I love every ounce of that.
I think horror stories and the characters in them are inherent risk takers, and that is the queer community. We're always risking our queerness, our life, our expression. We're always putting ourselves out there at the risk of life and death in some situations. They relate to the fear factor of existing. I'm just so humbled that they like us. They really like us.

You are on the receiving end of a lot of fan art right now. I'm curious if there has ever been a time when you were on the other end — were you ever sharing your creations with someone who inspired you?
So, not creation. I am so old school that I write letters — like physical letters or a direct email. Rosie O'Donnell is somebody I have just, like, pestered. I've never heard back, so maybe one day. But she brought Broadway to me. I was a poor kid living with a single mom in a trailer park when I was a young teenager, and her show was on at four o'clock after school, and she featured Broadway performances. And I remember writing a letter then.
[Also,] Ina Garten. Ina Garten, the chef, I have written. I love her so much. I love how intellectual she is in the kitchen, and she's also in on the joke. So those two are, like, I've written actual letters to. They inspire me.

I love that! Would you encourage other people who feel inspired by creatives to share how it has impacted them in that way — with art, with that kind of thing? Would you like to see more of that in the world?
Absolutely. I think, I really think, that's the truest form of validation we crave. I think that is very powerful, and I would encourage anybody — even if you and I knew that it was a long shot for them to see the letter or get the letter — it made me feel good putting that out there. People are so quick to criticize, but I'm saying, "Boy, have you made an impact on my life, and please keep going no matter what." I think that made me feel good and made me feel motivated.

@Juliaaistired courtesy of Miss Bouvèé
You have taken a lot of joy in inspiring others to create more. Has the affirmation that you have received — and seeing how that has affected them — inspired you to create more art, too?
Yes, very much. There's already another screenplay written for another movie that we're doing, and so it's been very hard to get motivated about that, because making movies is hard, but seeing that did bring me a form of validation and motivation to, like, all right, now I've got to get on this one!
Big Easy Queens is an Advocate Original and is streaming now on Hulu. This interview has been edited for length and clarity.
Together might not have started out as an interrogation of gender, but it accidentally became the queerest horror film of the year anyway.
It also happens to be one of the year’s best, too
The film, which comes from first-time feature director Michael Shanks and stars Alison Brie and Dave Franco (who also produced the movie), introduces audiences to Tim and Millie (Franco and Brie, respectively), an outwardly happy, middle-class, unmarried couple on the eve of a big milestone in their relationship. Millie, a teacher, has taken a new job outside the city, and Tim has agreed to come along, potentially leaving behind his dreams of rock stardom.
Tim is also wracked with grief over the loss of his father, which has taken a toll on their intimacy — something Millie is willing to look past, but that secretly gnaws at her.
In other words, just beneath the surface of this relationship simmers a stew of resentment and insecurity. The question at the heart of the film is whether they really want to commit to a lifetime together — flaws and all — or if they should, wait for it, no longer be together
.

Moving away from their friends and Tim’s gigs only puts more pressure on the fault lines of their already fractured connection. To reconnect, they go for a hike, only to stumble — quite literally — into an underground chamber where something they encounter sets off a chain reaction. What follows is a feverishly toxic bond that only grows more intense... especially when their very flesh seems to want to fuse — once again — together.
It’s a concept born from Shanks’ own romantic history. Like his principal characters, he and his partner have been together since they were quite young, and the film reflects his own anxieties around commitment, toxic enmeshment, and loss of identity.
“It’s about how crazy it is in any relationship to kind of fully commit to somebody, to share a life with somebody,” he tells PRIDE. “It's a weird and scary kind of thing to do.”

It’s a dynamic that anyone, regardless of sexuality or gender, can relate to — but how it’s expressed in the film is where things take a surprising left turn into a post-gender world.
It’s challenging to discuss without revealing the film's many twists and turns. But without venturing too far into the weeds, the film presents a mythology that renders gender obsolete and even a symptom of something fundamentally broken in humanity.
It also features a pivotal queer character who serves as both witness and confidant to Millie and Tim as their life transition becomes more of a — shall we say — transformation.
Brie is proud of the way the character's presence is treated casually, and she emphasizes the importance of that approach. “You don't always have to be making a commentary on it — really, just reflecting the way the world is, where we have all types of couples,” she tells PRIDE.
Germain McMicking/Neon
Although the film takes a darker view on the subject, in Together, love really is love. As a result, couples of all varieties will see their anxieties and emotions reflected in the story — even Brie and Franco, who are married to one another and creative partners together, found themselves reflecting on their own dynamics while making the film. “We had a lot of discussions about the differences between toxic codependency and maybe sort of like mild codependency,” says Brie. “I think we came to realize that we have some codependent tendencies in our relationship, but because of our jobs, we actually end up spending a lot of time apart, so we're able to cultivate really good independence and social circles away from each other. Then, when we come back and work together, it feels really nice.”
“It’s healthy to kind of miss each other from afar every once in a while,” adds Franco to PRIDE. “We don’t really have many boundaries, and it might kind of become the toxic version of codependency,” he jokes.
Although the film is doubtlessly body horror, it’s a rare entry in the subgenre that offers some lightness. Part of that comes from the sharp comedic edge of its cast — and it makes great use of more, shall we say, visceral moments for some shockingly funny sight gags. “We were debating the other day if this is the first feel-good body horror movie. You do kind of walk away wanting to, like, dance and move your body and you're feeling good,” says Franco. Although he also admits with a laugh, “We've also heard from single people who’ve seen the movie who have said, ‘This is a strong argument for staying single.’”
Germain McMicking/Neon
Regardless of where audiences fall on that spectrum, they will undoubtedly also be presented with some fascinating questions about gender, what a post-gender world would look like, and if we’re better off without it all.
Intentionally or not, the film presents those fascinating questions and leaves you with plenty more to chew on — which is the sign of a great horror film. Together is the most romantic, queerest, and funniest body horror film in recent memory. Brie and Franco are perfectly cast, and their real-life chemistry shines through. It’s a rom-com for sickos and queer folks — and that’s the highest compliment I can give a film.
Together is out now in theaters. Check out the trailer below.

10 gay moments from the 'Twinless' trailer that have us sweating with anticipation
Lionsgate/YouTube
Months ago, Teen Wolf star Dylan O’Brien’s upcoming film, Twinless, set the internet ablaze after the film’s hot and heavy gay sex scene leaked following its Sundance Festival premiere in February.
O’Brien stars as Roman as he navigates life without his twin brother. At a support group for twins who have lost their siblings, he encounters Dennis, played by James Sweeney, who also wrote and directed the movie.
As Roman and Dennis get to know each other, they “become inseparable outside the group” as they “search for solace and an identity without their other halves,” according to a press release for the film.
However, after meeting Dennis’ co-worker, Marcie (Aisling Franciosi), “all is revealed to be not what it seems, as each man harbors secrets that could unravel everything.”
The film also stars Gilmore Girls alum Lauren Graham as Lisa, mother to Roman and his twin brother, Rocky, who is going through her own grieving process throughout the storyline.
After dazzling critics who praised the film’s “dark, inventive comedy,” Lionsgate set an official release for September 5 so we can finally all see what the fuss is about.
The trailer also captures the lighthearted humor in the first half, then teases some of its darker tones in the second. Scroll through for our initial reaction, and be sure to check out the full trailer after!
Dylan O’Obrian looks amazing
Lionsgate/YouTube
We love how he looks without a shirt, and we can’t wait to see what started the conversation around the sex scene.
“I like balls.”
Lionsgate/YouTube
The first time Roman and Dennis meet, Dennis is eating a cookie at the meeting, and Roman warns him not to eat it, saying it “tastes like balls.” Dennis responds by saying he likes balls to insinuate flirtation, then responds accordingly when he tastes how bad the cookie actually is in a totally adorable (and relatable) situation.
Queer love with understanding
Lionsgate/YouTube
While Roman and Dennis are getting to know each other, Roman pauses for a moment, gives Dennis a longing stare, and says, “You get me.” Cue gay hearts melting everywhere.
“You should meet this gay guy...”
Lionsgate/YouTube
When Roman mentions introducing Dennis to a gay man he knows, Dennis jokes by comparing being Asian to meaning he has a lot of Asian friends. Sure feels like Roman was really crushing and using this as a deflection, though!
Couple's costume
Lionsgate/YouTube
The scene of Dennis and Roman showing up in a couple's costume cosplaying the Sims is basically all we need to know to be sure we’re going to fall in love with this duo.
Gym sex…?
Lionsgate/YouTube
Whatever is going on with these two at the gym is everything we hope we see every time we go to the gym. We’re equally intrigued and jealous!
Feeding each other marshmallows?!
Lionsgate/YouTube
I mean, come on. How cute is it when two men stuff each other’s faces with marshmallows and essentially play an adult version of Chubby Bunny?
So much gay longing
Lionsgate/YouTube
It seems like both characters in the movie experience some form of gay longing for each other…which we assume builds the tension toward that scene.
Wait… how graphic will that scene be?
Lionsgate/YouTube
Why do we have a feeling we’re getting ourselves in deeper than we thought? (Not that going deeper is a bad thing…)
Together or separate?
Lionsgate/YouTube
As cute as it seems, this also looks like a really stressful “will they/won’t they” situation that might break our hearts.
Plus, we get two of our girl crushes at once!
Lionsgate/YouTube
We get Lauren Graham and Tasha Smith from Survival of the Thickest in the same film? How did we get so lucky?
“The less you know, the better”
A review fromThe New York Post during the trailer says, “the less you know, the better” during the tonal shift, and it just adds to the drama and mystery of it all. What looks to be a sweet rom-com of two lost men exploring grief together turns into a film about exploring the limits of human emotions and the secrets we keep.
We just hope the hype, the reception, and the trailer actually live up to themselves. Most of the reviews talk about the twists and turns, and we love a good movie that keeps us guessing the whole way.
Big Easy Queens is an original film featuring an incredible ensemble of queens as they face a slew of campy and spooky adventures in New Orleans. And now, the fan favorite is available to stream on Hulu.
Besides familiar faces like Eric Swanson (Miss Bouvèé), Jennifer McClain, and Matthew Darren, Big Easy Queens also stars RuPaul's Drag Race season 17 breakout star Suzie Toot (Benjamin Shaevitz).
"They're in store for strong queer characters. I wanted to do something original. Every note is original in this film, and I wanted to show drag queens and queer men in strong leadership characters," Swanson tells Out.
Director Erynn Dalton wanted to uplift the LGBTQ+ community through this exciting project and made sure every step of the process was joyful from beginning to end.
"It's just really fun. It's a great combination of camp, horror, blood, wigs falling off! We really didn't hold back with it," Dalton says.
Big Easy Queens was originally released back in 2023, but the thriller is now streaming on Hulu as part of Advocate Originals. This announcement is a dream come true as Swanson manifested this movie becoming available on a streaming service when it initially came out in theaters.
"I am manifesting that this film inspires people to just be fearless in queerness. We are on the ride of our lives! I'd love to see it worldwide on a streaming service so that people who don't have the access like we do in the states can go and stream it in the privacy of their own home," Swanson concludes.
