It looks as though the Jones family is getting a new member. Ish. Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s Indiana Jones 5 character has finally been revealed and it isn’t, as some surmised, his canonical daughter, Sophie. Instead, Waller-Bridge will play Helena, Indiana’s goddaughter and an entirely new character in the franchise.
“She’s a mystery and a wonder,” as Waller-Bridge described her character to Empire, with the film’s director James Mangold adding that she’s “slippery, charming, the girl next door, a grifter.” The character will no doubt prove to be not just an assistant to the famed adventurer/archaeologist but also a thorn in the side, as Mangold says she is largely based on Jean Harrington, Barbara Stanwyck’s scheming but delightful con artist in Preston Sturges’ The Lady Eve.
