Fan Casting Veska in Indiana Jones and the Saucer Men From Mars

The younger, more reckless partner of Vadim Cheslav. Veska is a Russian spy who disguises himself as a cowboy and later as a military photographer. He is cold, efficient, and utterly ruthless—shooting two MPs without hesitation. He fights Indy on the rocket sled, trying to kick him loose, until Indy sprays hot oil in his face. The oil ignites from the rocket exhaust, roasting Veska alive. His death is one of the film's most shocking moments, bringing intensity and physicality to a memorable, brutal henchman.
