Marie Claire Malaysia March 2019 Cover: Pom Klementieff

@pom.klementieff is more than just a graceful fashion darling. In our exclusive interview, she shared with us on how she prepare herself for a role like Mantis in @avengers. “My character doesn’t need to fight because she can make them feel things they don’t want just by touch. It was frustrating in the beginning because I had been fight-training a lot and then I didn’t get much action in the film. I’ve been training in martial arts for a few years with my friend and trainer, Jessen Noviello. I’ve learned so much, like kickboxing, boxing taekwondo, fight choreographies, and doing the splits! I train because I also want to do action movies further down the line and would hope to do my own stunts.” Photography: @mitchellmccormack Videography: @jtendero_ Song: Kaleo Way Down We Go Editor & Stylist: @azzaarifk Makeup Artist: @jilliandempsey Hair Stylist: @marcusrfrancis Manicurist: @ashlie_johnson Styling assistant: @wanna__b Outfits: @fendi, @gucci, @bottegaveneta, @ferragamo, @maxmara, @chanel and @longchamp
