Andrei Strasser is the main antagonist of the 1998 Disney film Mighty Joe Young, a remake of the Oscar winning 1949 film of the same name. He is a ruthless Romanian poacher who murdered the titular ape's mother as well as Dr. Ruth Young, mother of the film's protagonist Jill Young. However, in the process, Strasser loses his thumb and trigger finger after Joe bit him, and he swears revenge on the gorilla for the damage. 12 years later, Strasser sees Joe on TV and decides to pay the ape a little visit and get his revenge on him for costing him his fingers, and he will stop at nothing until he kills him (along with Jill or anyone else who gets in his way).
He was portrayed by Rade Šerbedžija, who also played Murad in Taken 2.
