EVERYTHING ON OUR RADAR THIS MONTH

Go BTS with the reality show that changed the 00s.

WUTHERING HEIGHTS – 13 FEBRUARY
We’re set for an enchanting few hours once Wuthering Heights releases. Leads Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi enter their British period-drama era with this modern redo of Emily Brontë’s literary classic. Unfamiliar with the story? In a nutshell, young Heathcliff (Jacob) returns as a wealthy gentleman after an extended period away from his adopted family – which includes Catherine (Margot) – and the pair begin a steamy affair. Oh, and Charli xcx is behind the experimental soundtrack, so you’re set for a truly unique film experience.

REALITY CHECK: INSIDE AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL – 16 FEBRUARY
Netflix continues its catalogue of viral documentaries with this deep dive into one of the USA’s most iconic – yet controversial – reality shows. America’s Next Top Model had quite the fall from grace, becoming infamous for its explosive arguments and constant tears. Hear from the wide-eyed contestants, iron-fisted judges and of course, Tyra Banks – all of whom had a part to play in this culture-defining show.

Bruno's signature disco-pop is back.

BRUNO MARS, THE ROMANTIC – 27 FEBRUARY
With iconic singles like Just The Way You Are, Grenade and The Lazy Song under his belt, Bruno Mars is a serious contender for the ‘king of pop’ title. His new album The Romantic features 10 new tracks to rinse on repeat, alongside a six-show residency at Wembley this summer. If you secured tickets, expect a medley of his greatest hits, bucketloads of good vibes and (fingers crossed) an APT duet with ROSÉ.

NICK JONAS, SUNDAY BEST – 6 FEBRUARY
Nick Jonas getting inspiration from our Sunday Best roundups? Who'd have thought? Jokes aside, Sunday Best is Nick’s fifth solo studio album, succeeding 2021’s Spaceman. But instead of the sweet, pop-R&B of his previous projects and most recognisable singles, Sunday Best is set to be gospel-inspired, introspective and potentially tearjerking.

LEIGH-ANNE, MY EGO TOLD ME TO – 20 FEBRUARY
Leigh-Anne is the latest Little Mix alumni to try her hand at going solo. And judging by My Ego Told Me To singles Dead and Gone, Been a Minute, Burning Up and Most Wanted, it’s going well. Blending dancehall, reggae and afrobeats with even more genres, this project is bound to have a song for everyone. Make room in your playlist.

Out of the way roses, there's a new flower in town.

DRACULA ON STAGE – 4 FEBRUARY – 30 MAY
Cynthia Erivo may not have received any Oscars nominations for her role in Wicked: For Good, but we’re sure she’ll receive recognition for her one-woman, 23-role performance in Kip Williams’ Dracula. Cynthia reportedly skipped the Golden Globes to continue practising the show – a testament to her work ethic and dedication to her craft. If you’re familiar with any iteration of Dracula – including the original source material – expect the unexpected. This is sure to be like no Dracula you’ve ever seen before.

KEW GARDENS ORCHID FESTIVAL – 7 FEBRUARY – 8 MARCH
In honour of Lunar New Year, the Princess of Wales Conservatory will be blossoming with orchids. For a whole month, admire installation after installation of Chinese-inspired floral arrangements and sculptures of panda and koi. For an even more elevated experience (and date night, if you're so inclined), you can book an after-dark tour of the conservatory, complete with music and performances.
