Alfredo Varelli (born Alfredo Ciavarella, 31 August 1914 – 18 August 1996) was an Italian film actor whose career spanned more than six decades. He debuted in Alessandro Blasetti's 1934 film Vecchia guardia. Varelli played a leading role in the 1942 historical drama The Jester's Supper, but most of his work was post-Second World War. He is also known for playing Lucan in Quo Vadis (1951). His last role was in the film Roseanna's Grave, released posthumously in 1997.

Varelli died in Rome on 18 August 1996, at the age of 81.
