Alyson Stephanie Court[2] (born November 9, 1973) is a Canadian actress who first appeared in the 1985 children's film Sesame Street Presents Follow That Bird, and played summer camper Dawn in the animated film Care Bears Movie II: A New Generation the following year. In 1988 Court was in the pilot for the Canadian television series My Secret Identity as Caroline, neighbour to the main character that Jerry O'Connell starred. Court played Loonette the Clown, the lead character of the Canadian children's television series, The Big Comfy Couch,[1] from 1992 to 2002. Court had been the only actress to voice Claire Redfield in the Resident Evil series, having voiced her in Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil Code: Veronica, the CG animation movie Resident Evil: Degeneration, Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, and Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City. Court did not reprise the role of Claire in the 2015 video game Resident Evil: Revelations 2. In addition, she directed the voice-over and motion capture portions of the spin-off title Resident Evil Outbreak, which did not feature Claire. In addition to voice acting, Court was also involved in the localization process of several Capcom games in North America. Among the most noteworthy being Mega Man X5 in 2001, in which she was directly responsible for the infamous decision to rename the initial eight Maverick bosses to reference Guns & Roses members, meant as a tribute to her then husband's love of the band.[3]
From 2000 to 2003, she was the host of the morning children's programming block on CBC, Get Set for Life (now Kids' CBC). In addition, Court appeared as herself on Mr. Dressup[4] from 1984 to 1994.
Voice acting
Court voiced Emily Elizabeth in the Clifford's Fun with... videotape series from 1988 to the early 1990s. Among her animated series voice acting roles are Malani the Ewok in the animated television program Star Wars: Ewoks, Lydia Deetz (originally played by Winona Ryder) in the animated adaptation of the 1988 film Beetlejuice. She voiced Terri Cloth on The Garbage Pail Kids animated series of 1987–1988. In 1992, she voiced Jubilee in X-Men: The Animated Series and Nora Mouse in the animated series Timothy Goes to School. During 2006 and 2007 she was the voice of Dahlia in the animated series Skyland. She voices Coco in the animated show Urban Vermin, and was the voice of Pixx in the animated show "Ultraforce".
In video games, she provides the voice of Claire Redfield in Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil Code: Veronica, Resident Evil: Degeneration,[5] and Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles,[6][7] as well as reprising her role as Jubilee in Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes.
