Charles Boyer (28. august 1899 - 26. august 1978) bio je francuski glumac koji se proslavio ulogama uglađenih evropskih zavodnika i džentlmena u nekim od najzapaženijih klasičnih hollywoodskih filmova 1930-ih i 1940-ih.
Boyer se rodio kao sin lokalnog trgovca u Figeacu, zabačenom gradiću u brdima južne Francuske, gdje je, prema vlastitim riječima, prvi film mogao vidjeti tek u dobi od 11 godina. Za glumu se zainteresirao za vrijeme kratkotrajne službe bolničara u Prvom svjetskom ratu, gdje je slobodno vrijeme kratio pišući skečeve kako bi zabavio pacijente. 1920. godine je otišao u Pariz gdje se zahvaljujući markantnom izgledu brzo probio na tamošnjoj teatarskoj sceni.
Boyerov izgled su zapazili i agenti hollywoodskog studija MGM sa kojima je 1929. godine potpisao ugovor. Boyer je bio jedan od prvih ne-američkih glumaca koji se ne samo prilagodio zvučnom filmu, nego nastojao iskoristiti svoj primjetni francuski naglasak kao prednost. Slijedio je cijeli niz prestižnih i popularnih filmova, a od kojih je možda najpoznatiji Algiers iz 1938. godine, gdje je tumačio lik šarmantnog kriminalca Pepea Le Mokoa. Njegov je nastup bio tako impresivan da je filmski animator Chuck Jones upravo po njemu stvorio lik tvora Pepea Le Pewa.
Na njegovu karijeru je uticao relativno brz gubitak kose, zbog koga se morao postepeno orijentirati na karakterne i uloge negativaca. Usprkos toga, očuvao je status jednog od najuglednijih glumaca u Hollywoodu i dobio nadimak "posljednjeg filmskog zavodnika".
Boyer je, za razliku od imidža zavodnika, u privatnom životu bio izuzetno skroman i povučen. 1934. se upoznao s britanskom glumicom Pat Paterson sa kojom će se vjenčati i ostati u braku 44 godine. Sa njom je imao sina po imenu Michael Charles Boyer, koji će tragično okončati život igrajući ruski rulet nakon što ga je ostavila djevojka. Dva dana nakon što mu je supruga umrla od raka, ostarjeli Boyer je izvršio samoubistvo predoziranjem Seconalom.
