Jacob Elordi’s latest comments about filming sex scenes with Margot Robbie in their latest film, “Wuthering Heights,” have raised eyebrows, mostly because of the comparison he chose. In a new report, Elordi spoke about his upcoming role as Heathcliff opposite Robbie as Catherine “Cathy” Earnshaw. The film has already been drawing plenty of chatter for its intimate scenes, but now, Elordi’s take on how those scenes come together only added fuel to the fire.
Jacob Elordi compares Margot Robbie sex scenes to fight or dance sequences
Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie have filmed sex scenes for Emerald Fennell’s big-screen version of Emily Brontë’s 1847 novel, “Wuthering Heights.” However, instead of describing them as romantic or spontaneous, The Sun exclusively reported that Elordi sees the sex scenes as no more unusual than planning out a fight sequence or working through a dance routine. In other words, the job comes down to marks, movement, camera angles, and timing for the “Euphoria” star.
Moreover, Elordi said that the work is especially controlled in scenes with limited space to move and where lighting and framing leave little room for error. Hence, the goal is to make sure each motion works for the camera, rather than letting anything drift off plan. Besides, Elordi said he felt the chemistry between him and Robbie right from the start when they began working together.
He gushed, “If you have the opportunity to share a film set with Margot Robbie, you’re going to make sure you’re within five to ten metres at all times.”
Still, Jacob Elordi’s comments on “Wuthering Heights” have kept the spotlight on his sex scenes with Margot Robbie. The actor’s comparison may sound unusual, but it matches how many productions now handle intimate scenes, with careful planning and clear boundaries to ensure everything remains professional. Hence, whatever viewers think they are seeing on screen, the actors put in hard work and plan down to the smallest detail.
“Wuthering Heights,” featuring Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie, is available in theaters across the U.S. now.
