On Tuesday, March 24, PEOPLE exclusively confirmed that the reimagining of Emily Brontë’s 1847 gothic novel will be available digitally at home on March 31 on participating digital platforms, including Amazon Prime Video, AppleTV, Fandango at Home and more. Then, on May 5, the film will be available to own on 4K UHD™, Blu-ray™, and DVD,.
The 2026 film, from Saltburn writer-director Emerald Fennell, is based on Brontë’s novel, which follows the doomed romance between Heathcliff (Elordi) and Catherine Earnshaw (Robbie) as jealousy, obsession and class divide spiral into a cycle of revenge that haunts their families for generations.
Along with the news of the forthcoming digital release, PEOPLE can exclusively share the first of the behind-the-scenes special features.

One feature gives fans a glimpse into director Fennell’s “lifelong bond with ‘Wuthering Heights’ and the hidden depravity of the Victorian era, reimagining Emily Brontë’s tale through emotion, memory, and desire to create an epic love story for a new generation,” per a press release from Warner Bros.
“Emerald’s version of ‘Wuthering Heights’ is really focusing on the Kathy-Heathcliff relationship,” Robbie explains in the clip. “Whether they can or cannot be together.”
“It’s tragic and gut-wrenching,” the Barbie alum continues. “You see them hurt each other and be hurt by each other constantly. But it’s all coming from a place of being madly in love.”
“Catherine to Heathcliff is best friend, sister, mother, lover — all at the same time,” Elordi adds. “She’s the first person that holds him. She’s the first person that looks him in the eye and engages with him and makes him a person.”
Robbie also explains that Fennell’s approach to the story is particularly character-oriented, as they dictate where the story goes, rather than their circumstances.
“The world didn’t happen to Kathy,” she continues. “Kathy happened to the world.”

“I think it’s just so beautiful to have something like ‘Wuthering Heights’ from a very unique perspective. Emerald, she’s just a person of her own,” Nelly actress Hong Chau adds in a behind-the-scenes interview.
“The movie is epic,” Elordi adds of the film’s scale. “And you don’t see so many epic romances anymore.”
“My hope is that it reminds us all how deeply we feel. Hopefully it reignites a passion in people,” he says.

For Fennell, she hopes that the film “reminds us that we’ve all felt the same way forever. That just because you might be wearing a corset, you’re still as living and breathing and feeling as anyone.”
In addition to Robbie and Elordi playing the iconic Catherine and Heathcliff, the rest of the ‘Wuthering Heights’ cast includes Chau, Alison Oliver, Shazad Latif, Martin Clunes and Ewan Mitchell.
“Wuthering Heights” is in theaters now.
