Merdeka 118 – Malaysia’s tallest building and the second-tallest in the world – makes its Hollywood debut in Marvel Studios’ Thunderbolts.
Filmed in August 2024, the movie features British actress Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova leaping from the 678.9m skyscraper, with Kuala Lumpur’s skyline visible in the background.
