In case you missed the biggest headline from the Wuthering Heights premiere in London on Thursday evening, let me summarise: Jacob Elordi, 28, is the ultimate gentleman.
The Aussie-born actor and arguably everybody’s favourite internet boyfriend right now, sent the UK into a spin on Thursday evening after he affectionately protected his Wuthering Heights co-star and on-screen doomed lover, Margot Robbie, from the rain.
The timing of the classic British downpour at the premiere in Leicester Square was almost comedic, given that just hours before, the actress-cum-producer was gushing about one particular scene in the Emerald Fennell adaptation of the Brontë classic, where Jacob’s gentlemanly instincts shone through.
Explaining how one of the “most romantic scenes” in the film was improvised by the Euphoria actor, Margot alongside co-star Alison Oliver, who plays Isabella Linton, told Access Hollywood: “The rain machine is on cause we were checking if the rain machine level was right. And I was going like that because the rain had started,” she explained, as she covered her forehead with her hands. She then shared that she looked up at Elordi, and he made an unexpected, sweet gesture.

And it’s just like, that’s the second nature to him – he just automatically went like that,” she explained as she mimicked the action.
The Barbie actress added: “And honestly, both Emerald [Fennell] and I just went, ‘Okay, stop.’ And he was not aware that he had done anything chivalrous or romantic at all. And we were just like, ‘That was the most romantic thing I have experienced and seen, so do that for the whole scene.’ And then we made that the scene.”

But the Frankenstein actor certainly isn’t the only Hollywood heartthrob proving that chivalry is far from dead. Defibrillators at the ready as we take a look at just some of the Hollywood hunks whose red carpet chivalry left us feeling completely besotted!

The Last of Us actor Pedro Pascal knows how to look after his co-stars while posing for photos, particularly when it comes to his beautiful sister Lux. There have been countless times when the Gladiator II star, 50, has ensured his actress sister has the perfect moment in front of the camera, always being the first to adjust her dress.
One that stands out is when Lux joined Pedro at the Gladiator II premiere in London’s Leicester Square in 2024. Lux looked simply stunning in a long-sleeved velvet gown, which the Fantastic Four actor was sure to give the gown the moment it deserved as the Queen of Coal starlet smized for photographers.

Everybody’s favourite vampire, Robert Pattinson, whipped straight into action while attending the premiere of Die My Love at the Cannes Film Festival in 2025. Assisting none other than his glamorous co-star, Jennifer Lawrence, the Batman star, 39, was not worried about hitting the deck for the sake of the Hunger Games actress’ decadent custom Dior Haute Couture gown.

Another moment from the 78th Cannes Film Festival was quite the internet sensation. Do the words ‘Bee Gate’ mean anything to you? During the premiere of their film Eddington, Elvis star Austin and Materialists star Pedro saved none other than Emma Stone from an invading bee.
