Elordi, who plays the iconic role of Heathcliff, revealed that he found Cooper, portraying the younger version of his character, \u201cintimidating.\u201d Despite the age difference, Cooper\u2019s impressive talent made a strong impression on Elordi, who described him as a \u201crock star\u201d and praised his brilliance.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with <em>10 News First<\/em>, Elordi shared a lighthearted anecdote from their first meeting, where he nervously asked Cooper if he was feeling any pre-shoot jitters, to which Cooper responded with a confident \u201cNo.\u201d Elordi chuckled, recalling his own internal nerves, but keeping his composure: \u201cCool, me neither.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Cooper, who is quickly making a name for himself following his role as Jamie Miller in Netflix\u2019s <em>Adolescence<\/em>, has been compared to a young Robert De Niro for his mature and poised performances. His rising star power is evident as critics and audiences alike take note of his strong presence on screen.<\/p>\n<p>The <em>Wuthering Heights<\/em> film, which boasts a star-studded cast including Margot Robbie as Catherine Earnshaw, has been an exciting project for Elordi. He praised Fennell\u2019s direction, calling her a \u201cgenius,\u201d and shared how special the entire experience has been. However, the casting choices for this adaptation have sparked some controversy. While many are excited by the diversity of the cast, with actors like Shazad Latif and Hong Chau in key roles, some critics have raised concerns about whether Elordi fits the original \u201cracially ambiguous\u201d description of Heathcliff in Emily Bront\u00eb\u2019s novel.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the mixed reactions to the casting, there is still great anticipation for this <em>Wuthering Heights<\/em> adaptation. Fans are eager to see how this fresh take on the classic love story unfolds under the direction of Fennell, especially with Elordi and Cooper\u2019s compelling performances leading the way.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jacob Elordi recently opened up about his experience working alongside rising star Owen Cooper on the set of the highly\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":294,"featured_media":69240,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[24910],"class_list":["post-69239","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity-news","tag-owen-cooper"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69239","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/294"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=69239"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69239\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/69240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=69239"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=69239"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/usa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=69239"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
