Claire Redfield (Japanese: クレア・レッドフィールド, Hepburn: Kurea Reddofīrudo) is a character in Resident Evil (Biohazard in Japan), a survival horror video game series created by the Japanese company Capcom. She was first introduced as one of two player characters in Resident Evil 2 (1998), alongside Leon S. Kennedy. The character was formerly known as "Elza Walker", a motorcycle racer in the original version of Resident Evil 2 that was canceled at approximately two thirds completion as series creator Shinji Mikami decided it was inadequate. In the final version of the game, Elza was renamed Claire by the game's screenwriter Noboru Sugimura as the sibling of Chris Redfield, in order to introduce a connection to the plot of the first game. A popular character, Claire has appeared in several Resident Evil games, novelizations and films, and has also appeared in other franchises, including Dead by Daylight. Several actresses have portrayed Claire. In her initial video game appearance, she is voiced by Canadian actress Alyson Court, whose features were also later used for the character. In the remake of Resident Evil 2 (2019), she is voiced by Stephanie Panisello and modeled after Canadian model Jordan McEwen. In the live-action Resident Evil films, Claire has been portrayed by Ali Larter and Kaya Scodelario. Claire has received mostly positive reviews from video game publications, with particular commendation for being a non-sexualized female lead. Source: Wikipedia (en)
