If you are a fan of fan cast then you’re likely to have seen this Swedish born actress on a number of lists. However, after missing out on the role of Black Widow, we’ve yet to see her dawn a costume in either a DC or Marvel film — there’s hope. Ferguson is a talented actress whose latest movie proves just that in… The Greatest Showman where she plays the Swedish songstress, Jenny Lind. Playing a lighthearted role of a singer seems to fit what Jenkins may be looking for in her Cheetah. Still, that’s only the tip of the iceberg of the young 34-year old actress who is leaving her mark in Hollywood. One of her most recent films, Life saw her play the role of an astronaut stuck in space trying to survive a deadly species from Mars. She was convincing, strong, and showed just how great of an actress she was.
Nevertheless, nothing compares to her role in Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation which is the main reason fans want to see her in a comic book movie more than ever. Ferguson is a scene thief and truly excels in the role of the sexy kick-ass Ilesa Faust. Yet again in Hercules Ferguson proves that she could play the role of a powerful woman, but this time she was a princess. Cheetah would finally give fans what they’ve been wanting for Ferguson and that’s a role in a comic book film.
