Daughter of Oscar-winning director Ron Howard, Bryce Dallas Howard grew up away from the harsh lights of Hollywood, but that hasn’t stopped her from making a name for herself. She got her start in several New York plays, including Tartuffe and As You Like It, before garnering the attention of M. Night Shyamalan, who cast her without an audition in his movie The Villiage. In The Help, she portrays Hilly Holbrook, the overly snooty ringleader of their town’s segregation efforts.
