Adam MacDonald (born May 16, 1977) is a Canadian actor and film director. He is known for his role as Josh MacIntosh on the CBC show Being Erica, for his starrings role as Peter McGregor on Wild Roses, and Detective Steve Peck on Rookie Blue, and for his guest-starring roles in several other shows, including Murdoch Mysteries, and Republic of Doyle. He also starred as Nick McAllister on the short-lived supernatural show Vampire High.

MacDonald was born in Montreal, Quebec and grew up in the suburbs with his mother, father, and older brother. His parents divorced when he was 12.

He first gained interest in acting during high school, but kept getting kicked out of student plays. Nonetheless, he kept pursuing a career in acting. He gained a brief interest in music, but chose to focus on acting because that is where his passions lied.

MacDonald has recently expressed interest in directing feature films, and is close to directing his first one. He has directed three short films, one of which ("Sombre Zombie") aired on Bravo! Television.

He was the first actor to be cast in the series Being Erica, and was one of its principal antagonists.

MacDonald has said that one of the highlights of his career thus far has been working with Jennifer Love Hewitt, whom he has admired since childhood.

He speaks Spanish and is fluent in French. He is also cousins with actor Jeff Roop, who played Drew French in Vampire High. He made his directorial debut in 2015 with the feature-length film Backcountry.

In 2016, MacDonald filmed his second movie, Pyewacket, an occult horror film starring Laurie Holden.
