D.C. Douglas (born February 2, 1966) is an American voice actor born in Berkeley, California. He used to be a stage performer before becoming a voice actor. While he did do some voice acting, it was mostly on the minor side, but he gained fame when he voiced Albert Wesker and Legion. His role as Wesker is so famous that he pretty much propelled himself into being a fan-favorite voice actor in a short period of time.
He got into trouble
when he left a voice mail for a Tea Party group called Freedom Works, which helped him build up a side career as a left-wing political satirist.
He also does occasional live acting for TV shows and films from The Asylum.

Those tropes will be released into the atmosphere, ensuring complete. Global. SATURATION.
- Acting for Two: Douglas's farewell video to his two major roles in the video game industry involves Legion trying to establish an alliance with Wesker.
- Deadpan Snarker: Many of his political YouTube videos tend to be very sarcastic (particularly in regards to the Tea Party and Donald Trump).
- Friendly Rivalry: With fellow Resident Evil VA Roger Craig Smith.
- Large Ham: A lot of his characters come out this way. For example, Wesker.
- Man of a Thousand Voices: While usually cast as characters with baritone voices, he has an impressive range. In one political cartoon he wrote and voiced in, he provides at least four voices: a "normal" voice, a female voice, a Deep-Southern voice, and one with a thick Russian accent.
- Pigeonholed Voice Actor: A large majority of the characters he voiced tend to be deep-voiced villains.
- Playing Against Type:
- The dance instructor from Persona 4: Dancing All Night has Douglas using a higher-pitched super-camp voice.
- Kira pushes him into the territory of Soft-Spoken Sadist, which is a rarity for Douglas beyond a few instances of Cold Ham.
- Rule 34: He's well aware of this existing for Wesker, and even hosted a panel at cons where he read adult Wesker fanfiction. In his Wesker voice. He also enlists volunteers from the audience and assigns the other parts to them. It is as hysterical as it sounds.
- Star-Making Role: His role as Wesker in Resident Evil 5 made him a household name among American voice actors, along with Legion from the Mass Effect series.
- Streisand Effect: Ironically, after the Tea Party and Freedom Works lampooned him and got him fired from his job with Geico, he got a lot more work, became considerably more prolific and broke into mainstream video games with both Resident Evil and Mass Effect. He took a minute to rub this into their faces after 2012.
- Take That!: After becoming a famous voice actor following his troubles with Freedom Works, Douglas took an opportunity to lob some potshots at them.
- Teasing Creator: On his Facebook and Twitter accounts, he alludes to voicing "some evil dude" (a.k.a., his most famous role) in the upcoming Umbrella Corps game. Afterwards, he drops more hints regarding his involvement in the game.
