Roman Coppola (born 22 April 1965) is an American film director and music video director. His feature-film debut and love letter to cinema, CQ (2001), starring Jeremy Davies and Angela Lindvall premiered at the Cannes Film Festival. He directed all the music videos for songs of The Strokes' albums Is This It and "12:51" for Room on Fire.

Coppola has also directed clips for artists including Green Day, Fatboy Slim, Phoenix, Daft Punk, The Vines and Wyclef Jean. His music video for Phoenix's "Funky Squaredance" was invited into permanent collection at the New York Museum of Modern Art. He is an accomplished television commercial director as well.

He is the son of 5-time Academy Award winning director, producer, and writer Francis Ford Coppola and Eleanor Coppola, and brother of Academy Award winning film director Sofia Coppola and the late Gian-Carlo Coppola. He appeared in The Conversation as a nine-year old child walking out of a confessional. Francis said he frequently gave his son cameo appearances in his films in the director's commentary to The Conversation.

He has also had a great deal of work in other production realms, including second unit direction for such films as Dracula, The Rainmaker, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou and Sofia Coppola's Marie Antoinette.
