Margot Robbie<\/a> has taken a look back at Charli XCX<\/a>\u2019s \u201cwild\u201d Glastonbury 2025<\/a> set ahead of Wuthering Heights<\/a>\u2019 release in cinemas today.<\/p>\n

The actress, who plays Catherine Earnshaw in Emerald Fennell\u2019s reimagining of Emily Bront\u00eb\u2019s classic novel, was speaking to NME alongside co-stars Jacob Elordi and Alison Oliver.<\/p>\n

Discussing Charli XCX, who released her 12-song Wuthering Heights soundtrack album today, Robbie described the singer as \u201cso cool\u201d, explaining, \u201cIt feels like yesterday I was watching her perform at Glastonbury and now we\u2019re just having chats.\u201d<\/p>\n

About Charli\u2019s headline slot on The Other Stage<\/a>, Robbie continued, \u201cThere\u2019s something different when a Brit performs at Glastonbury. They\u2019ve probably been to Glastonbury, so they know what people want; they know the crowd.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe immediately came out and we\u2019re all screaming,\u201d she added. \u201cShe\u2019s like, \u2018Don\u2019t play with me, Glastonbury,\u2019 and then she went into something else and everyone was losing their minds.\u201d<\/p>\n

Doing an impression of Charli, she continued, \u201cShe was like, \u2018This is for my people in Block9\u2019, and it\u2019s like, \u2018Yes, we\u2019re going to go to Block9! I don\u2019t know, she knew the crowd and everyone went wild.\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked if Charli had spoken to her about the viral \u2018Apple dance\u2019 \u2013 the ritual tradition of a big name performing the viral dance associated with the song<\/a> \u2013\u00a0she joked, \u201cI was in no state to do the \u2018Apple\u2019 dance!\u201d<\/p>\n

At Glastonbury, it was Gracie Abrams<\/a> who filled the role, with her set on the same stage on Friday having been attended by Charli herself<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Moving on to the Wuthering Heights soundtrack, Elordi said, \u201cWhat I found interesting was that she started developing it from the screenplay, before we even started shooting. I think that\u2019s so interesting \u2013\u00a0that you have one artist\u2019s images, like Emerald\u2019s, from 14 years old, to now reading this book, and then she puts those images into words. And then another artist comes in and starts creating a sound based off of those words.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s like a completely original piece of work, you know? It\u2019s so, so cool with no visual reference.\u201d<\/p>\n

Robbie described it as \u201cunbelievable\u201d. \u201cWe were just hoping for one song, and she was like, \u2018I\u2019ll do an album\u2019,\u201d she added, \u201cWe\u2019re all like, \u2018OK, great, thank you\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

Elordi then discussed his Frankenstein<\/a> co-star Oscar Isaac<\/a>\u2019s old ska-punk bands<\/a>, confirming that he\u2019d seen the old photos of him in his bands because he reblogged them on his film enthusiast Tumblr account.<\/p>\n

When NME asked him if the account actually exists, he explained: \u201cI\u2019ve never deleted it. I did have a Tumblr account that was dedicated to thrashing the transit of Melbourne. Graffiti and cinema were my two passions.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThere must have been an X-Men<\/a> film at that time and so he was trending on Tumblr and it was like, \u2018Look at Oscar Isaac when he was this age\u2019, because I had all pictures of young actors before they started making films on there\u201d.<\/p>\n

NME finished by asking the trio for an album they always go back to, and Elordi opted for The Notorious B.I.G.<\/a>\u2019s seminal 1994 debut \u2018Ready To Die\u2019, explaining that he first heard it when he was about 13 years old.<\/p>\n

Robbie remained with the hip-hop theme, going for 50 Cent<\/a>\u2019s 2003 debut \u2018Get Rich Or Die Tryin\u2019\u2019, while Oliver struggled to decide before settling on Amy Winehouse<\/a>\u2019s 2006 album \u2018Back To Black\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cI actually watched the Amy documentary again last week, for no reason, and she was just the most incredible artist of all time. She really was. And that\u2019s also my karaoke song,\u201d she said, before Robbie joked: \u201cAre you even allowed to be Irish if you can\u2019t sing?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018Wuthering Heights\u2019 is in UK cinemas now<\/p>\n
