Kane Takeshi Kosugi (ケイン・健・コスギ, Kane Takeshi Kosugi, born October 11, 1974) is an American martial artist, actor, and media personality of Chinese and Japanese descent.

The son of martial arts film star Sho Kosugi, Kane began his career as a child actor, appearing alongside his father in films such as Revenge of the Ninja and Pray for Death. He first gained recognition in Japan for his lead role as Jiraiya (Ninja Black) in Ninja Sentai Kakuranger, becoming the second American Sentai warrior. He has appeared in more than 30 films and television series, including the video game adaptations DOA: Dead or Alive and Street Fighter Alpha. He participated in five seasons of the obstacle course show Sasuke, where he was the first American participant.

Like his father, Kosugi has appeared in both Japanese and American media. In Japan, Kane is regarded as a gaijin tarento (foreign talent) due to his nisei (second-generation) background, having been born abroad.
