Guardians Of The Galaxy's Dave Bautista And Pom Klementieff's Reunion Film The Killer's Game Gets Release Date
Dave Bautista and Pom Klementieff, who play the iconic duo Drax and Mantis, share a great chemistry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
Best known from the Guardians of the Galaxy, Dave Bautista and Pom Klementieff will be seen reuniting on the big screen soon. Following the end of the franchise comprising five movies and one television special, the duo is set to star in the upcoming Hollywood adaptation of The Killer’s Game.
Bautista and Klementieff, who play the iconic duo Drax and Mantis, share a great chemistry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and their dynamic comes across as one of the funniest in the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise. However, it is unlikely that Bautista will return as the same character to the Marvel universe as he mentioned not being interested in portraying Drax the Destroyer anymore. “When I said that I was done, I was really just done with my journey as Drax,” Bautista told Gizmodo's io9 while Klementieff has been unsure of Mantis’s return, she told Esquire last year.
