Margot Robbie Nails Kate Bush’s Wuthering Heights Choreo In Behind-The-Scenes Clip

As Wuthering Heights continues to dominate conversation, has anyone else found themselves listening to a certain 1978 Kate Bush hit on a near-constant loop?

Well, it turns out that Kate’s chart-topper was hard for the cast of Emerald Fennell’s new film to get out of their heads, too.

In fact, a new clip shows the movie’s lead Margot Robbie, who plays Cathy, recreating the British music legend’s iconic choreography while shooting on the very moors that inspired it.

Dialect coach William Conacher shared the behind-the-scenes footage of the Oscar nominee performing the moves on his Instagram page on Monday, to celebrate the new movie’s box office success, and has already racked up more than one million views.

And, just for good measure, here’s Kate Bush performing her original choreography as we’re more used to seeing it in the late 1970s:

Margot’s co-star Jacob Elordi, who plays Heathcliff, previously teased to 10 News Sydney that the Barbie star “knows the whole dance top to bottom”, and claimed to have “16mm footage of her doing the dance on the moors”.

Wuthering Heights was Kate Bush’s debut single, and was inspired by the BBC’s adaptation of the Emily Brontë novel which first aired in 1970, starring Timothy Dalton as Heathcliff and Anna Calder-Marshall as Cathy.

The track became Kate’s first and only number one single – that is, until the fourth season of Stranger Things saw a surge in popularity for her track Running Up That Hill almost 40 years on from its original release.

Emerald Fennell’s spin on Wuthering Heights does not make use of Kate Bush’s signature song, instead featuring new music by Charli XCX inspired by her script.

Charli recently unveiled a companion album to go alongside the film, featuring the singles Chains Of Love and Wall Of Sound, as well as the previously-released John Cale collab House, which is used in the film’s opening sequence.

Wuthering Heights is in cinemas now.
