Pom Klementieff
Pom Klementieff was born 3 May 1986. She
was a student at the Cours Florent drama academy in Paris. Her role includes
Loup (2009) and Sleepless Night (2011). She portrays the role of Mantis, in the
Marvel Cinematic Universe films Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017),
Avengers: Infinity War (2018) and Avengers: Endgame (2019). Pom Klementieff was
raised in Quebec City to a Korean father and a French-Russian wife. He worked
as consul with the French government. Eugene Klementieff was her grandfather.
Her parents picked the name "Pom" due to the fact that it's similar
in pronunciation to Korean words for "spring" as well as
"tiger". Klementieff resided in Canada for one year before her family
went on a long trip due to her father's employment. They lived in Japan as well
as the Ivory Coast, before settling in France. Her father, who passed away in
the age of five from cancer was also her mother. She was also suffering with
schizophrenia and didn't have the time for her children. Klementieff was raised
with her paternal uncle and aunt. Her uncle, who she described as "like
[her] father" died when she was 18 years old. Her older brother who
committed suicide seven years later, was her aunt. After her uncle's passing,
Klementieff attended law school briefly to impress her aunt. However, she
didn't consider the profession appealing. Also, she worked as a waitress in
France as well as a salesperson. In the Cours Florent drama academy in Paris,
she began acting at the age of 19. After a few months of education, she was
awarded a theater competition that awarded the opportunity to take classes for
free for two years with some of the best teachers. Klementieff was the
stepdaughter of Catherine Deneuve in Apres lui (2006) and was her first
professional acting gig. Filming for her scenes was a three-day process. The
plan was for Klementieff to push another person along a set staircase, but she
accidentally fell to the ground. Gael Mostl kept the footage in the film. Loup
(2009) was her first lead role in a film. It is an French movie about a tribe
in Siberian mountain reindeer herders. The film was shot in a camp hours away
from the closest village. The camp was where temperatures plunged to zero.
