André René Roussimoff (bahasa Prancis: [ɑ̃dʁe ʁəne ʁusimɔf]; 19 Mei 1946 – 28 Januari 1993), lebih dikenal dengan nama ringnya André the Giant, adalah seorang pegulat dan aktor profesional Prancis. Roussimoff dikenal karena ukuran tubuhnya yang besar, yang merupakan akibat dari gigantisme yang disebabkan oleh kelebihan hormon pertumbuhan. Itu juga menyebabkan dia disebut "Keajaiban Dunia Kedelapan".

Memulai karirnya pada tahun 1966, Roussimoff pindah ke Amerika Utara pada tahun 1971. Dari tahun 1973 hingga pertengahan 1980-an, Roussimoff dipesan oleh promotor World Wide Wrestling Federation (WWWF) Vincent J. McMahon sebagai "daya tarik khusus" keliling yang bergulat untuk promosi di seluruh dunia. Amerika Serikat, serta di Jepang untuk New Japan Pro-Wrestling. Selama booming gulat 1980-an, Roussimoff menjadi andalan WWWF (saat itu berganti nama menjadi Federasi Gulat Dunia), dipasangkan dengan manajer jahat Bobby Heenan dan bermusuhan dengan Hulk Hogan. Keduanya menjadi headline WrestleMania III pada tahun 1987, dan pada tahun 1988, ia mengalahkan Hogan untuk memenangkan Kejuaraan WWF, satu-satunya kejuaraan dunia kelas berat, pada episode pertama The Main Event. Ketika karir WWF-nya berakhir setelah WrestleMania VI pada tahun 1990, Roussimoff bergulat terutama untuk All Japan Pro-Wrestling, biasanya bersama Giant Baba, sampai kematiannya yang mendadak.

Setelah kematiannya pada tahun 1993, Roussimoff menjadi orang pertama yang dilantik ke dalam Hall of Fame WWF yang baru dibuat. Dia kemudian menjadi anggota piagam Hall of Fame Newsletter Pengamat Gulat dan Hall of Fame Gulat Profesional; yang terakhir menggambarkan dia sebagai "salah satu tokoh yang paling dikenal di dunia baik sebagai pegulat profesional dan sebagai ikon budaya pop." Di luar gulat, Roussimoff terkenal karena tampil sebagai Fezzik, raksasa dalam film 1987 The Princess Bride.
