Emerald Fennell's "Wuthering Heights" Adds Hong Chau, Alison Oliver and Shazad Latif.

Hong Chau (“The Whale”), Alison Oliver (“Saltburn”) and Shazad Latif have landed the three remaining major roles in Oscar winner Emerald Fennell’s buzzy “Wuthering Heights” adaption for Warner Bros.

They join the already announced Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi in the lead roles. Fennell (“Saltburn”) will adapt from her own script.

Deadline reports, Chau is playing Nelly Dean, the film’s chief narrator, with Oliver as Isabella Linton. Shazad plays Edgar Linton, a wealthy, aristocratic man who marries Catherine Earnshaw (Margot Robbie).

Warner Bros. snapped the project in a fierce bidding war. Netflix had offered the makers $150 million to acquire the film. But the filmmaker opted to go with Warner Bros. (Who offered a lesser price) as they assured the film will get a wide theatrical release and a big P&A spend.

the classic novel is set in the Yorkshire moors and revolves around the intense and often destructive relationships between two families: the Earnshaws and the Lintons. The narrative is framed by Mr. Lockwood, a tenant at Thrushcross Grange, who learns about the tumultuous history of Wuthering Heights through Nelly Dean, a longtime servant. The core of the book is the passionate and tragic love story between Heathcliff, an orphan adopted by Mr. Earnshaw, and Mr. Earnshaw’s daughter, Catherine.
