Ferenc Kiss (16 April 1892 – 13 August 1978) was a Hungarian actor. He appeared in more than fifty films from 1921 to 1977.
He was the first President of the Hungarian Film Chamber and was outspokenly antisemitic at a time when Anti-Jewish Laws were restricting Hungarian Jews from participating in the Hungarian Film Industry. At his trial in December 1945 following the Second World War he insisted he was following the will of his members.
