Fans make realization about Margot Robbie's husband after her Wuthering Heights 'finger sucking' scene with Jacob Elordi
In the run-up to the release of Wuthering Heights, a 2026 adaptation directed by Emerald Fennell, Margot Robbie’s fans were already buzzing with anticipation. However, it was an unexpected detail regarding Robbie's personal life that has quickly become the talk of the internet.
It turns out that her husband, Tom Ackerley, is the producer behind the film - a realization that has sparked new conversations among her fanbase.
Alongside her co-star Jacob Elordi, Robbie stars in what’s being described as a bold and intense take on Emily Brontë’s classic novel. The movie has already stirred up significant debate due to its steamy content, including a highly publicized "finger sucking" scene between Robbie and Elordi that has divided audiences.
The controversy surrounding the 'finger sucking' scene
The trailer for Wuthering Heights has generated considerable buzz, especially for its portrayal of sensual moments between the characters Catherine (Robbie) and Heathcliff (Elordi). One of the most talked-about moments involves Robbie’s fingers being placed in Elordi’s mouth. This scene, described as both "sexy" and "strange," has left viewers with mixed feelings.
Some fans are all for the intensity of the moment, praising the chemistry between the two stars. “WUTHERING HEIGHTS IS GOING TO F*CK ME UP SO BAD OMG JACOB ELORDI CAN YOU PLSSSS,” one fan gushed. Another fan expressed a similar excitement, writing, “I am going to see this as soon as it comes out idc.”
However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm. One user wrote, “Guess I’m the only one who thinks having fingers stuck in your mouth isn’t particularly sexy,” while others joked about the bizarre nature of the scenes, particularly one involving a fish.
Tom Ackerley’s role as producer
While Wuthering Heights continues to spark debate for its provocative scenes, fans are also coming to a new realization about the movie’s production. Margot Robbie's husband, Tom Ackerley, is credited as one of the film’s producers, which has left many of her followers intrigued.
Ackerley, who has worked behind the scenes on several of Robbie's projects, including I, Tonya and Promising Young Woman, plays a crucial role in bringing this daring version of Wuthering Heights to the screen.
This new information has led some fans to re-evaluate their perspectives on the film, especially considering the close collaboration between Robbie and Ackerley. Some are even suggesting that his involvement might explain some of the creative choices, including the film's bold, erotic undertones.
Regardless of opinions on the film’s more controversial moments, one thing is clear: Wuthering Heights is set to be a major topic of conversation when it hits theaters next month.
