Pom Klementieff, the actress who played Mantis in Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, confirms ongoing discussions with DCU boss James Gunn about a potential role in the upcoming DC Universe. This isn't a surprise, given Gunn's penchant for working with familiar faces.
The DCU aims to build a successful shared universe, learning from the missteps of the DCEU. While the DCEU saw some box office successes, inconsistencies and studio interference hampered its overall coherence. Gunn, known for his work on the Guardians of the Galaxy films, is hoping to avoid these pitfalls.
Klementieff, speaking at San Antonio's Superhero Comic Con, playfully dodged a direct question about which DC character she might play, but confirmed discussions with Gunn regarding a specific role. She expressed her desire to continue collaborating with Gunn, emphasizing their ongoing conversations about this undisclosed character. This isn't the first time Klementieff has hinted at joining the DCU, and Gunn himself subsequently confirmed these talks on Threads, clarifying it's unrelated to his Superman project.
Klementieff also shared her positive experience working with Gunn on Guardians of the Galaxy, highlighting her journey from aspiring X-Men actress to Marvel star. She remains open to reprising her role as Mantis, depending on the project's specifics.
The news of Klementieff's potential DCU involvement has sparked debate. Some criticize Gunn's tendency to cast familiar actors, including his brother and wife, while others argue this is a common practice in filmmaking. Ultimately, the success of Klementieff's potential DCU role will depend on the character and her performance.
Guardians of the Galaxy is available to stream on Disney+.
