As we’re deluged with commercials hyping the 2026 Wuthering Heights remake starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, the classic book’s many previous adaptations probably come to mind. The first cinematic version of Wuthering Heights appeared in 1920, and through the century, dozens of other adaptations have appeared, including ones with Laurence Olivier, Richard Burton, Timothy Dalton, Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche. What you’re probably not remembering is MTV’s 2003 version of the 19th century British romance, which moved the story to a California high school, turned it into a rock musical, and starred a pre-fame Katherine Heigl, just a few years before her debut on Grey’s Anatomy.
