Ferguson started to make strides in the film industry after appearing as a part of several Swedish projects. One of her first films was “Strandvaskaren”, which was a Swedish horror slasher film meaning Drowning Ghost. The film was released in 2012, but it wasn’t until three years later that she was cast as Ilsa Faust, who would become the lead in “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation”, the fifth film of the series, produced by J.
