Terence Young (June 20, 1915–September 7, 1994) was a film director best known for directing three films, including the first, in the James Bond franchise: Dr. No (1962), From Russia With Love (1963), and Thunderball (1965).

During World War II, Young was a paratrooper that took part in the battle at Arnhem, Netherlands where he was wounded and taken to a Dutch hospital. At this hospital he met a nurse named Audrey Heenstra who would later be better known as actress Audrey Hepburn, and who he would unite with twenty years later for the 1967 film Wait Until Dark.
