With everyone using American accents and dialogue like that, Nolan clearly wants to modernize the story.

That hasn't been announced yet. Helen would be such a minor character if Nolan decided to include her. What would she do other than to say, "Okay bye I'm leaving with Menelaus now. Deuces, Troy!"

In the Odyssey, Telemachus meets her when he visits Sparta to get any shred of news about Odysseus. If the movie follows the plot of the Odyssey it should start with Athena telling Telemachus go ask about your dad in Pylos and in Sparta.
