Key Takeaways
Mumbai, Jan 27 (NationPress) Hollywood actress Margot Robbie believes her co-star from Wuthering Heights, Jacob Elordi, would make a fantastic boyfriend for someone, especially after he demonstrated his thoughtfulness on set.
The duo plays Heathcliff and Cathy in the upcoming film, which draws inspiration from Emily Bronte's 1847 novel. The 35-year-old actress expressed her joy when Jacob, 28, surprised her by adorning her dressing room with roses on Valentine's Day, according to reports by femalefirst.co.uk.
During a mutual interview for Vogue Australia, Robbie commented: "Yours was so epic... I remember thinking on Valentine’s Day, oh he’s probably a very good boyfriend, ’cause there’s a lot of thoughtfulness in this."
She continued, "You did a lot of very thoughtful things. It wasn’t just the gesture of the roses; it was the note written from Heathcliff and that little tombstone creation. I was like, ah, crafts! Love that. It was crafty, it was meaningful, it was dramatic."
Elordi shared how he made a special trip to the set that day to execute the surprise, even though he had no scenes scheduled to film. He added, "It was dramatic. I had to check if you were filming, as I wasn’t at work that day."
Robbie responded with disbelief: "Shut up," to which he replied, "I came in."
Robbie then exclaimed, "You are absolutely devastating." They both joked about disliking filming scenes without each other, with Elordi stating, "I really didn’t like shooting when Margot wasn’t there," and Robbie echoing, "I hated shooting when you weren’t there."
Last year, Robbie defended Elordi's casting in the film, asserting that director Emerald Fennell made the right choice in selecting the Saltburn star to portray the brooding antihero. She conveyed her thoughts to British Vogue: "I get it (the backlash). There’s nothing else to go off at this point until people see the movie… I saw him play Heathcliff. And he is Heathcliff. I’d say, just wait. Trust me, you’ll be happy."
