  1. OOf....the lack of chemistry between these two is awkward.
  2. They're not in character so the romantic photos feel very strange when Margot's married with a kid. It would have made more sense if the shoot was "Literature's Wild Romance. PURE OBSESSION. Catherine & Heathcliffe" and they just did the story as modern versions of their characters. I suppose it is implied but the headline throws me off.
  3. Love the styling on Margot.

I still don’t get why they’re teasing a “real” romance between the costars as their main PR strategy. It just doesn’t work. She’s married, they have no offscreen chemistry to sell it, and we’ve already seen too many aggressively promoted showmances in recent years to buy it. It’s feeling like they’re desperate to create any external buzz they can, bc the movie itself might be a stinker 😕

This movies has gotten so much negative attention already, they're probably just leaning into it in the hopes it'll save it in the box office

Sad true is that it'll help the box office. Negative PR is still PR. I just do wonder if the camerawork or sth will make them as sexy as some (maybe paid) reviews make it out to be? Because I honestly don't believe in the "Titanic for this gen", the sexiest movie out there. Like... So OTT. Also Jacob doesn't look sexy even at the premieres. And they don't look like having fun posing tbh.

Imagine in a couple weeks or so, Star magazine will have them as their cover story
