Rebecca Ferguson in The King Who Would Be King - A Massive Adventure.
When I look back, I don’t regret any choice I’ve made, or anything I’ve pursued or not pursued. I’m really happy with the way my life has turned out. And there have been a lot of difficulties and hindrances in my life—choices that I had to make, to move on and survive. I had to grow up so fast as a 15-year- old girl. I had a child when I was 22. I don’t party, I don’t drink, I don’t do drugs—I’m very clean. I live a healthy life, and I guess with all that comes a certain maturity.
At home, I kind of mix everything in one sentence, like my parents do.
I think there’s something very exotic about Swedish and Scandi-noir. We have incredible filmmakers and actors—Noomi Rapace and Stieg Larsson, for instance—they opened the doors. We open the borders, and people come in, and it becomes such a potpourri of different cultures and religions. I love that! I want the world to look like this! I’d like people to be more accepting of others, and embrace differing views, although admittedly that might be a bit naive of me. I like the cultural mix of Europe, including England. Take the Snowman set (which was filmed in Norway) for example—it was such a great mix of people.
I’m 34, but I have a lot of life experience. A lot of horrendous and destructive things have happened in my life, so that means I know where I have to go, if I have to dip into ‘the blackness,’. I feel I can shift very quickly. I also always try to be honest to my character, and try not to get too affected by other actors’ moods, behaviors or personalities, especially if I’m working in close proximity to them. I think you have to try to disconnect from others, but always listen, and then respond. I like to try to shock people I’m working with—sort of stare them down and throw them a curveball.
It’s all or nothing for me, basically. I love regimes, and I love schedules, and I love organization, and if you take it away from me I get a little bit flustered—I don’t know what to do. So when Rogue Nation was finished and they took away my personal trainer, the chef, and all of the luxuries that surround Mission, you realize just what a goddamn luxury it is to be thrown into this world.
