Zoran Žižić (Serbian Cyrillic: Зоран Жижић; 4 March 1951 – 4 January 2013) was a Yugoslav and Montenegrin politician. He served as Deputy Prime Minister of Montenegro in the first two Đukanović cabinets from 1991 to 1996, and was the first Prime Minister of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia following the overthrow of Slobodan Milošević in 2000.

Žižić resigned from the position of Prime Minister in protest over the extradition of Slobodan Milošević to the ICTY in June 2001. He was part of the hard-line Serbian nationalist wing of the Socialist People's Party and was expelled in 2005 following disagreements with its moderate leader Predrag Bulatović.
