Mrs. Danvers' deep love and respect for Rebecca, her insistence on keeping her memory alive, and her jealous hostility towards the second Mrs. de Winter imply that there may have been a romantic element to her relationship with Rebecca, and Wheatley's adaptation leans into this with Mrs. Danvers' final farewell before she jumps into the ocean.

When the narrator enters the hall and Maxim sees the dress, he angrily orders her to change. Wheatley's Rebecca departs from both the novel and the 1940 film by having Maxim succumb to Mr. Favell's blackmail and write him a check for £10,000, which is then used against him in court as evidence of his guilt. Instead she decided to claim a final victory by using an imaginary pregnancy to taunt and provoke him into killing her, so that he would go to prison for her murder. Afraid that he will be blamed, Maxim covers up her death by putting her in the boat and scuttling it - but technically he is innocent of her murder.

Ben Wheatley's Rebecca doesn't end with the novel's final image of Manderley on fire, but with a shot of the second Mrs. de Winter embracing Maxim in a hotel room, looking over his shoulder directly into the camera.
