The Prix Romy Schneider (Romy Schneider Award) is the most prestigious award for promising upcoming actresses in the French film industry.

It was initiated in 1984 by the French journalist Eugène Moineau and is named after the actress Romy Schneider (1938-1982). The prize is awarded by a jury each year in Paris in conjunction with the Prix Patrick Dewaere (formerly the Prix Jean Gabin).
