"Margot Robbie, Jacob Elordi ( Euphoria, Frankenstein), and Saltburn director Emerald Fennell teaming up for a daring, sexy, "aggressively provocative" take on Emily Brontë's classic Wuthering Heights, it's little wonder there's a frisson of excitement rippling through North Yorkshire, where it's set. The film was primarily shot in Swaledale and Arkengarthdale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, including Old Gang Lead Mines, Surrender Bridge, Old Bouldershaw House, Lady Mary Hut, windswept Booze Moor and Melbecks Moor, and the time-capsule village of Low Row."
