"Very, very early in my career a male actor I worked with gave me a book called 'Why French Women Don't Get Fat', and it was essentially a book telling you to eat less...I was like, 'woah, f*** you, dude'."
"I wasn't always going to be in it. "I was thrilled to be the producer but at some point, we were talking about Cathy, and I decided to throw my hat in the ring. "I've always wanted to be one of Emerald [Fennell]'s actors and fortunately, she felt the same way. It worked out wonderfully."
"I didn't know Emerald had seen and liked me in Saltburn. "I was travelling when I got a text message from her saying, 'Do you want to be Heathcliff?' and I wrote, 'Yeah.'"
Margot Robbie received a weight-loss book titled 'Why French Women Don't Get Fat' from a male co-star early in her career, a gift that advised eating less and provoked a strong rebuke. Robbie indicated she does not know where that man is now. Charli XCX responded to the anecdote with, "Your career's over, babe." Online commenters defended Robbie and criticized the man's audacity. Robbie originally served as a producer on Wuthering Heights before deciding to audition for Cathy and was cast with Emerald Fennell's support. Jacob Elordi accepted the role of Heathcliff after a text from Fennell.
