The Lone Wolf Returns is a 1935 American mystery crime film directed by Roy William Neill and starring Melvyn Douglas, Gail Patrick and Tala Birell.

Douglas plays jewel thief Michael Lanyard, aka the Lone Wolf.

Retired, the Lone Wolf is forced back into crime, but turns the tables on his enemies.

It is based on the 1923 Louis Joseph Vance novel The Lone Wolf Returns, which had previously been made into a 1926 film of the same name.

The New York Times critic Frank Nugent gave the film a poor review, writing, "the time may pass pleasantly enough if this sort of thing is new to you, or if you may be beguiled into a more charitable mood by the performances of Mr. Douglas, Douglas Dumbrille and Raymond Walburn or by the beauty of Gail Patrick and Tala Birell.
