Albert Hodge (Ravenna (Ohio)|Ravenna, Ohio, 18. april 1912 - New York, 19. mart 1979.) bio je američki glumac najpoznatiji po naslovnoj ulozi svemirskog pustolova u TV-seriji Captain Video, a prije toga kao tumač uloge Zelenog obada u popularnoj radio-seriji koja se emitirala od 1936. do 1943. godine.

Hodge je u ulozi Kapetana Videa 1950. godine zamijenio Richarda Coogana koji je seriju bio napustio kako bi se posvetio kazališnoj karijeri. Hodge nakon prestanka snimanja serije nije uspio iskoristiti svoju popularnost, te je brzo pao u zaborav.
