#my dislike of this is not aimed directly at Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi #I just don’t think that these are the parts for them #I don’t think that a white person should’ve been cast as Heathcliff and would *love* to know what the thought process behind that idea was #I think that Catherine and Heathcliss should both be played by British actors #I am actively concerned about the idea of these Americans doing fake Yorkshire accents that won’t come across right #and again #Heathcliff is not white #you don’t even need to read the damn book to know that #I guess I have less thoughts about Margot Robbie as Catherine but she still doesn’t fit the image for me #maybe because I can’t detach her face from iconic roles that are very much not part of the classic gothic genre #I just think she’ll feel incongruous idk #the main concern is really Heathcliff because what #I just…#yeah #luke pasqualino #wuthering heights #wuthering heights cast #emily brontë #emily bronte #wuthering heights cast announcement
