Roger Hanin (born 20 October 1925) is a French actor (and film director), best known for playing the title role in the 1989–2006 TV police drama, Navarro.
Born as Roger Lévy, his brother-in-law was a former President of France, the late François Mitterrand, whose wife, Danielle, was the sister of Hanin's wife, Christine Gouze-Rénal.[citation needed]
With Claude Chabrol, Hanin co-wrote the scripts for a pair of spy films in the mid-1960s. Chabrol directed Code Name: Tiger (1964) and Our Agent Tiger (1965), both featuring Hanin in the starring role of secret agent Le Tigre.
