Anna Falchi (born Anna Kristiina Palomaki on April 22, 1972) is a model and film actress of Italian descent. Born in Tampere, Finland, she is widely known as a film star in Italy, where her father is from.

She started her career as a model. She first appeared on TV in a commercial for an Italian bank in 1989. The ad starred Paolo Villaggio, and was directed by the famous Federico Fellini. This helped her launch a film career, starting with Nel continente nero (On the Dark Continent) in 1993. She appeared in many films since, with the most recent being the comedy Nessun messaggio in segreteria released in 2005. She has also been a popular television personality, hosting various specials on Italian TV.

She is less widely known in the English speaking world. Some fans of the horror comic Dylan Dog, know her as the lead female in a film adaptation called Dellamorte Dellamore, which was released in the U.S. as Cemetery Man.
