Article Summary

  • Wuthering Heights unveils a new poster inspired by iconic bodice ripper romance novels.
  • The film’s recent trailer release sparked debate among fans about costumes and period accuracy.
  • Buzz around the adaptation continues to grow ahead of its February 2026 theatrical release.
  • The creative team acknowledges the film’s dramatic tone with playful promotional choices.

The lit nerds in your life are going to be mad for the next three months, and you should probably just accept it. When it comes to the works of Emily Brontë, people have big opinions and even bigger feelings, so this new adaptation of Wuthering Heights was always going to draw a lot of criticism. When the first set photos leaked, costume and fashion nerds jumped in to talk about how the clothing did not fit the era of the film at all. The first teaser trailer for the film was released in September, and everyone pitched a fit. Two and a half months later, we have the official trailer, and people are still big mad. There have been plenty of good films that have been sold poorly in trailers, but to say that "Wuthering Heights" will be heading into its opening weekend on the back foot is an understatement unless the conversation around this film shifts dramatically. The team behind this film is a little self-aware, or someone on the team is a little self-aware, because the new poster is a perfect homage to classic bodice rippers.
