Brigitte Eva Gisela Schittenhelm (Berlijn, 17 maart 1906 - Ascona (Ticino, Zwitserland), 11 juni 1996)) was een Duitse actrice. Haar bekendste rol was die van Maria in Fritz Langs' stomme film Metropolis uit 1927. Na Metropolis, die de tweede film was waarin ze te zien was, speelde ze nog in dertig andere films mee waaronder ook gesproken films. Zo verscheen ze in Die Liebe der Jeanne Ney (1927), (1928), (1931), (1932) en (1934). In 1935 verhuisde ze naar Zwitserland. Ze was bang geworden voor de groeiende nazi-invloed in de Duitse filmindustrie. Met haar tweede echtgenoot, de industrieel Hugo Kunheim, kreeg ze vier kinderen. Ze hield het acteren voor gezien in 1936. Daarna weigerde ze elk interview over haar carrière.
