The 20-year old Mission: Impossible film franchise got its strongest female character and performance by Rebecca Ferguson, who played undercover MI6 agent Ilsa Faust in Rogue Nation. That alone got her the plum gig of directly co-starring with Emily Blunt in The Girl on the Train, adaptation of the massively popular novel of the same name.
Ex Machina was the sleeper hit of 2015, with many thanks due to Alicia Vikander‘s physical, scary performance. Vikander was in a ton of movies this year (The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Testament of Youth, Burnt), with Oscar-hopeful The Danish Girl still on the slate. And you’ll have a hard time avoiding her at the 2016 cinemas with roles in Tulip Fever (written by Sir Tom Stoppard), The Light Between Oceans (from The Place Beyond the Pines‘ Derek Cianfrance), and opposite Matt Damon in the fifth Bourne movie.

Mess at Coven and Freak Show being the highest. Literally the two most weak.
