Carla Juri (; born 2 January 1985) is a Swiss actress. Her acting credits include 180°, Wetlands, Finsterworld and Blade Runner 2049.

Early life and education Juri was raised in Ambrì, a village in the Italian-speaking Canton of Ticino in Switzerland. Her father is a lawyer, and her mother is a sculptor. Fluent in German, Italian and English, she learned the first two when she was young, and English at 15. In school, she played ice hockey for HC Ambrì-Piotta and went on to be a forward for the Swiss Class A team, SC Reinach. From 2005 until 2010, she studied theatre in Los Angeles and London.

Juri started her acting career by hopping between auditions in Berlin, London and Rome. She maintained a busy schedule trying to find work while making use of her trilingualism. Between 2007 and 2008, she took part in the ensemble of the Theatrical Arts Theatre Company in Los Angeles. From 2008 to 2010, Juri attended acting classes at The Actors Centre in London. She also played the leading role in the 2013 film adaptation of Wetlands, which is arguably the role she is best known for. The novel it is based on was a controversial bestseller in Germany. To prepare for this role, Juri wore the clothes of her character, Helen, for several weeks and spent a lot of this time in Berlin, where her character lives.
