Rebecca Ferguson has shared even more details on a former co-star whom she branded an ‘idiot’ and a nightmare to work with.
Two years ago, the Swedish actress shockingly revealed she was left in tears after being screamed at by her 'absolute idiot' co-star.
Speaking about the incident on the Reign with Josh Smith podcast two years ago, Ferguson insisted she would never work with them again
And now, she's revealed even more and who it definitely wasn't.

“I remember there was a moment and this human being was being so insecure and angry because this person couldn't get the scenes out,” the Hollywood star revealed in January 2024.
“But because this person was number one on a call sheet, there was no safety net for me. So, no one had my back. And I would cry walking off set.”
Two years on, the star has now dropped even more information about the incident in a recent interview with Harper’s Bazaar UK.
In the upcoming March 2026 issue, the star admitted she had done some reflecting on the incident, and revealed how she would handle things differently, had it happened today.
"It wasn’t about the person. It was about me," she revealed. "It was so scary. I didn’t know then how to go, ‘Hey, can I talk to you privately?’ Now I would want to believe that I could have taken this person aside."
Ferguson's reflection on the moment comes after she also previously revealed the harsh words the actor would use to show her up in front of the whole crew.
“They would say things like 'You call yourself an actor?', 'This is what I have to work with?', and 'What the f**k is this?’” she claimed.
Ferguson didn’t take things lightly, however, as she demanded the actor get off the set, telling them to “f**k off”.
Although the A-Lister wasn’t spilling any names, fans online turned detective from the few clues she did drop.
The Dune actor confirmed was someone she had worked with in the 'last 10 or 12 years'. However, Hugh Jackman and Tom Cruise fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Ferguson confirmed it was neither of these two A-Listers.
Famously, Rebecca worked alongside Jackman in the 2017 blockbuster The Greatest Showman, whilst she shared the screen with Cruise in the Mission Impossible franchise.
Although we still don’t have a name,
It’s not the first time Ferguson has revisited the anecdote - and just last year she admitted her own fault in the matter in an interview with The Times.
"I will shove someone under a bus in front of an entire crew to make a point," she said. "I don't applaud my own behavior in that. It’s a really tricky world."
But will Ferguson ever reveal who the person in question is? Internet detectives - get to work!
