Margot Robbie brings raw emotion to reimagined 'Wuthering Heights'

Margot Robbie has confessed that she had no intentions of appearing in the romantic gothic drama film Wuthering Heights, at least initially.

The Barbie actor appeared on The Graham Norton Show and explained that she agreed as a producer only, to the Emerald Fennell-directed production.

However, later she came to terms with negotiating for the lead character, Cathy.

“I wasn't always going to be in it. I was thrilled to be the producer but at some point, we were talking about Cathy, and I decided to throw my hat into the ring.”

Notably, the casting eventually fell in her favor as she always wanted to work with the 40-year-old filmaker.

In the same interview, The Wolf of Wall Street star made a lighthearted jest.

“When I started on TV I had to have a dialect coach because I come from Queensland and I was thought too Australian for Neighbours!"

“I couldn't hear I had a bad accent, but they said, ‘You are just awful to listen to!’”

She went on to detail, “Emerald loves the book and she really focused on the feeling it gave her when she first read it at 14.” 

Moreover, she punched that the portrayal, "channels that raw emotional experience so it's an interpretation rather than an adaptation.

Talking about her next movie, which is scheduled to release on February 11 and starred by Jacob Elordi, Robbie pointed out that it is an unconventional version.

Margot called it one of the greatest love stories of all time and said it was an interpretation and not an adaptation.
