Big break
Tom Cruise personally chose Rebecca Ferguson to play Ilsa Faust in Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation after seeing her in The White Queen, and he noticed she resembled Ingrid Bergman.
First role
Ferguson's first acting job came after a modeling agency put her in a portfolio titled "normal people" because she was not tall or slim enough for modeling, and a soap opera casting agency found it.
A change of course
For a few years, Ferguson gave Argentine tango lessons at a dance company in Lund, Sweden, and during that time she kept working on several short art film projects.
