Who is Dougray Scott’s wife Claire Forlani from “Mallrats”?

Career Beginnings
Claire’s career really started in the early ‘90s, with a minor role in the TV series “Press Gang” (1991-1992), followed by playing Katarina in the film “Gypsy Eyes”, starred next to Jim Metzler and George DiCenzo, which persuaded her that an acting career was for her career. Encouraged by her immediate success, Claire and her family moved to the USA and settled in San Francisco, and she was soon cast in the series “JFK: Reckless Youth”, and then in the film “Police Academy: Mission to Moscow”. She continued quite successfully, honing her skills and building a name for herself in films such as “Mallrats” (1995), then “Basquiat” in 1996.
