Which actor plays Paris in Dead Reckoning Part One?

The story behind the answer

Pom Klementieff plays Paris in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One.

Paris is a French assassin who works for Gabriel, Ethan Hunt’s principal human adversary in the film. She pursues Ethan and Grace during the chaotic Rome sequence and later becomes increasingly important as the story reveals the Entity’s plans and Gabriel’s relationship with the artificial intelligence.

Klementieff, a French-Canadian actress, became internationally known for playing Mantis in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy films and Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame. Her performance as Paris is notably different: the character is physically formidable, largely silent for much of the film, and communicates through an intimidating presence rather than extended dialogue.

Viewers commonly confuse Paris with the film’s other prominent women. Vanessa Kirby plays arms dealer Alanna Mitsopolis, Hayley Atwell plays Grace, and Mariela Garriga plays Marie in flashbacks. Paris is Klementieff’s character, not one of those allied or adversarial figures.
