I just checked Wuthering Heights 2010 on IMdB, and guess who has been cast as Heathcliff. . .
ED WESTWICK OF GOSSIP GIRLS FAME!!!
Okay, this is either a brilliant move, or it's just plain terrible - I'm not sure which. This is almost equivalent to casting Zac Efron as Mr. Darcy. . . or Miley Cyrus as Elizabeth Bennet. . . you get my drift? Seriously, if they have to cast a teen heart-throb as Heathcliff, they could at least have picked someone who is actually good-looking. . . like Rob Pattinson. . . :D But Ed Westwick? I'm just not sure about this. . .
However, I'm sure Gemma Arterton (Tess of D'Urbervilles, Elizabeth Bennet in Lost in Austen) will be wonderful as Cathy. It will be interesting to watch as the rest of the cast is unveiled over the next few months. . .
