Adolescence actor Owen Cooper has explained what it's like working with Margot Robbie in the upcoming Wuthering Heights adaptation.
The young breakout star of Netflix's huge hit has landed himself an important part in Saltburn director Emerald Fennell's new film version of Emily Brontë's classic novel.
He'll be playing a young version of Heathcliff, played as an adult by Jacob Elordi. Margot Robbie stars as Catherine 'Cathy' Earnshaw.
Appearing on This Morning during the week, the young star was asked by Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley what it was like working with the A-List Barbie star.
"I see her all the time and I speak to her all the time, but I don't really have any scenes with her," he said, revealing that fans won't get to see the two sharing the screen together.

Wuthering Heights is Cooper's second acting gig after Adolescence, and since that show was filmed as a series of one-take episodes, the more traditional way of filming is a new experience for him.
He explained that it wasn't too much of a challenge, stating: "Filming-wise it's fine but obviously it's a lot different, but it's going really well."
Recently, Cooper explained that it was actually his Adolescence co-star Stephen Graham who helped him land the role.

"Stephen recommended me his agent," Cooper explained. "So Maddi [Bonura of Independent Talent] came and watch[ed] a bit of episode 1, and I got Wuthering Heights from that!"
Filming has nearly wrapped up, and while Wuthering Heights doesn't have a release window yet, let's hope it's not too far off.
Adolescence is available to stream on Netflix now.
