Adolescence Star Owen Cooper Names 1 Thing He 'Hated' About Filming Wuthering Heights

Owen CooperA lot has been said about how much went into the hit Netflix drama Adolescence’s unique one-take approach, and how tough it must have been on its talented cast and crew.But for the show’s breakout star, Owen Cooper, he actually found it a breeze compared to his next project.Owen recently made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel’s US talk show, where the 15-year-old explained that the cast only ever had to start over while shooting an episode of Adolescence if someone made a “proper bad mess-up”.This, apparently, was in stark contrast to his next role in Emerald Fennell’s intriguing new adaptation of Wuthering Heights, in which he plays a younger version of Jacob Elordi’s Heathcliff.Asked whether having gone through the process of shooting Adolescence had made Wuthering Heights “easy to you”, Owen admitted: “No, I hated filming Wuthering Heights. To be fair, I got used to it after a bit.“In Adolescence, we’d do one take and then you’re done. But in Wuthering Heights, you’re crying your eyes out, smashing stuff off the wall – oh, sorry, spoiler… – and then Emerald goes, ‘can we do it again?’. And I’m like, ‘no…’. I’ve just, like, melted my heart out in a scene, and she’s making me do it again… but it is what it it is, isn’t it?”Fortunately, it doesn’t sound like Owen had too bad a time on set.Earlier this year, he told Variety about how much he’d “really enjoyed” being on set, claiming: “It’s been amazing. Emerald’s lovely.”Owen also opened up about how his on-screen dad Stephen Graham helped him secure his role in Wuthering Heights, after the Bafta nominee recommended his own agent to him after their work together in the Netflix series.Fresh from his win at the National Television Awards earlier this week, Owen is now gearing up for the Emmys this weekend, where has been recognised in the catchily-titled Outstanding Supporting Actor In A Limited Or Anthology Series Or Movie category.READ MORE:This Is Why The First Trailer For Emerald Fennell's Wuthering Heights Has Already Divided ViewersDid You Spot Adolescence's Breakout Star Owen Cooper In The New Wuthering Heights Trailer?Owen Cooper's Win Was A Stand-Out Moment At This Year's NTAs
