Tetsuya Watari (渡 哲也 Watari Tetsuya, born December 28, 1941, died August 10, 2020) was a Japanese film, stage, and television actor. He made his screen debut in 1964, in Isamu Kosugi's Abare Kishidō.
Watari was mentored at Nikkatsu by Yujiro Ishihara. When Nikkatsu shifted to focusing on Roman Porno films in the early seventies, Watari was one of many of their actors who left the studio.
He was the president of Ishihara Promotion after Yujiro's death in 1987, but in 2011 he resigned due to his health conditions.
His late younger brother, Tsunehiko Watase, was also an actor.
