The cat seems to be out of the bag. Pom Klementieff seems poised to return in Mission: Impossible 8, per Simon Pegg.
“If you think you've seen the last of Paris… think again”
In an Instagram post, Pegg posted a picture of Klementieff as Paris from Dead Reckoning Part One. She appears to be sitting in a car or vehicle of sorts.
“Hard to kill! If you think you’ve seen the last of Paris… think again. 🗡️🧨🪓,” the caption read.

Speaking to Klementieff, it was clear that she bonded with Pegg on the set of the seventh Mission: Impossible. The two made a short film during that production, and it's fitting that Pegg is the one to confirm her return.
In Mission: Impossible 7, Klementieff played Paris, an assassin chasing Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and Grace (Hayley Atwell) throughout the film.
Pom Klementieff is widely known for her role in the MCU's Guardians of the Galaxy series. She played Mantis beginning in the second film and would appear in other MCU projects including Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame and Thor: Love and Thunder.
Some of her other acting credits include Oldboy, Ingrid Goes West, and The Addams Family. Klementieff has also starred in episodes of Black Mirror and Westworld.
Coming up, Klementieff will star in The Killer's Game, an adaptation of Jay Bonansinga's novel of the same name. Dave Bautista, her Guardians of the Galaxy co-star, Ben Kingsley, Ice Cube, and Sofia Boutella also star in the film. WWE superstar Drew McIntyre will also have a role.
