Rebecca Ferguson as Ilsa Faust is set to be in action in Mission Impossible 7. But her never-seen-before eyepatch in the film's trailer caught much attention.
Stopping by at Hey U Guys podcast with her co-star Simon Pegg, the Dune star revealed the reason behind the one-eye look.
"You'd think that the reason for the eye patch is a cool one. It is not, alas."
To which Pegg cheekily asked, "It's because you can't wink, isn't it?"
"It's because I can't ******* wink," Ferguson confessed.
"He lined up the shot, I took it, I was ready, I was breathing, and he goes, 'Now close your eye,' and I went [makes funny face attempting to wink]. He went, 'No, close the onerr444 eye.
Okay, other shot. Other angle. Close the eye.' [Makes funny face again] 'Can we get an eyepatch? Anyone?' There's nothing more to it than that."
The 53-year-old also said, "But out of circumstances, beautiful things are That's Mission all the way ... We hit an obstacle, we pivot, and the pivot always makes it better."
