Rodney Sturt “Rod” Taylor (11. januar 1930 – 7. januar 2015) bio je australijski filmski i televizijski glumac, koji je vrhunac slave uživao 1960-ih.

Rodio se u umjetničkoj porodici - otac mu se bavio izradom reklama, a majka je bila književnica. Na bavljenje glumom ga je potaklo gostovanje Laurencea Oliviera u Australiji. Karijeru je započeo na radiju, nastavio u nekoliko relativno nepoznatih australijskih filmova, prije nego što je u drugoj polovici 1950-ih otišao u Hollywood. Tamo je producente impresionirao sposobnošću da replike izgovara različitim američkim naglascima. Svoju prvu glavnu ulogu je dobio u znamenitom SF-filmu The Time Machine 1960. godine. Od 1970-ih je uglavnom nastupao na televiziji. Jedna od njegovih posljednjih uloga bila je lik Winstona Churchilla u ratnom filmu Inglorious Basterds, koji je 2009. godine bio režirao njegov veliki poklonik Quentin Tarantino.
