Get a filter to run before checking the model

I have a filter that sets CurrentUICulture of the current thread as a value pulled from a cookie

And I have a model that is being tested using the FluentValidation library

[Validator(typeof(MyInputModelValidator))]
public class MyInputModel


public class MyInputModelValidator: AbstractValidator<MyInputModel>
    {
        public MyInputModelValidator()
        {
            var x = Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture.Name;
            RuleFor(o => o.Country).NotEmpty().WithMessage(Resources.NoCountryError);

I want the thread culture to be changed to this point, so it pulls out the correct language for the error message

If I set a breakpoint on the validator above, I see that the thread has the wrong culture.

If I run the code further, it then hits the breakpoint on the filter, which changes the flow culture

How to make filter code run before model validation hits in

I tried both to decorate the controller action method with a filter attribute, and apply it globally, for example.

GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Filters.Add(new LocalizationApiFilter());

it is a web api, not mvc, although the concepts are the same
