Rebecca Ferguson said she once asked for an "absolute idiot" costar to be replaced with a tennis ball after they screamed abuse at her, reducing her to tears on set. The actor did not name the individual but did confirm it was not her "Mission Impossible" costar Tom Cruise. The next day on set, Ferguson decided to challenge her costar and put an end to his unacceptable behavior. I'm going to work toward a tennis ball. Using a tennis ball attached to a stick as a focal point for the actors to look at is common in movies when CGI is involved.
