When does Margot Robbie’s Wuthering Heights turn up the heat with a digital, 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD release?
Just as audiences are cooling off after a steamy season of Heated Rivalry, Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights (read our review here)is coming home to help people swoon and yearn like there’s no tomorrow. Gird your loins, folks, because the steamy romance starring Academy Award and BAFTA nominees Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi comes to digital platforms on March 31, including Amazon Prime Video, AppleTV, Fandango at Home, and more. Additionally, Wuthering Heights will arrive on physical media, including 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD, on May 5.
What’s Wuthering Heights about?
Wuthering Heights is a bold and original interpretation of one of the greatest love stories of all time. The twisted take on the classic romance stars Margot Robbie as Cathy and Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff, whose forbidden passion for one another turns from romantic to intoxicating in an epic tale of lust, love, and madness. The film also stars alongside Oscar nominee Hong Chau, Shazad Latif, Alison Oliver, BAFTA winner Martin Clunes, and Ewan Mitchell.
Wuthering Heights, first published in 1847, revolves around “Heathcliff, an orphan-turned-foster-son who falls in love with the daughter of the family who owns the estate on which he now lives, Wuthering Heights. After running away, Heathcliff rises up through the ranks of the gentry and exacts revenge on the families — the Earnshaws and the Lintons — who kept him from his true love.” Wuthering Heights has been adapted to the screen numerous times, including in 1939 with Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon, 1970 with Timothy Dalton and Anna Calder-Marshall, 1992 with Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche, and 2011 with Kaya Scodelario and James Howson.

Almost time for a private viewing
I meant to see Wuthering Heights when it landed in theaters, but decided to wait until the film’s home release to dive into Fennell’s unique take on Emily Brontë’s classic novel. Reactions to the film were mixed upon release, but that hardly matters. I chat with my co-workers about movies all the time, but I always ask them to keep the conversation spoiler-free so I can go into the film relatively fresh and with an unbiased opinion.
I’m looking forward to checking out Wuthering Heights later this month. How about you? Let us know in the comments section below.
