Which actor played Helena Shaw in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny?

Phoebe Waller-Bridge played Helena Shaw in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny.

Helena is the daughter of Indiana Jones’s former colleague Basil Shaw and becomes central to the search for the Antikythera mechanism. Her relationship with Indiana is complicated: she has personal history with him, but she is also willing to manipulate situations for financial gain. That tension drives much of the film’s partnership and conflict.

Waller-Bridge is an English actor, writer, and producer best known for creating and starring in Fleabag and for creating the television series Killing Eve. Her casting gave the final Indiana Jones film a younger co-lead with a distinct comic and dramatic style.

Helena is sometimes described as Indiana’s goddaughter, which is correct, but she is not his biological daughter. Indiana’s biological daughter, Mutt’s sister, is not part of the established family story; Helena belongs to Basil Shaw’s family instead.
