Mr. Wrong is a 1996 American romantic black comedy film starring Ellen DeGeneres in her film debut and Bill Pullman, and produced by Touchstone Pictures and Mandeville Films. It was released on February 16, 1996, by Buena Vista Pictures Distribution. The film's story follows the misadventures of a woman who realizes her fiancé is a mentally disturbed criminal.

Mr. Wrong was a critical failure and box office bomb. DeGeneres used to mention the film occasionally in her talk show, The Ellen DeGeneres Show, poking fun at the disastrous reception. As of 2023, it remains her first and only film as lead actor in a live-action film.
