Biography

Lutz Moik (November 10, 1930, Berlin – July 4, 2002, Berlin) was a German actor and voice actor. He became widely known at a young age for his leading role as Peter Munk in Paul Verhoeven’s fairy-tale film The Cold Heart (Das kalte Herz, 1950), the first German postwar color feature, which received international acclaim. Moik began his career as a child actor during World War II and worked in both DEFA productions in East Germany and films in West Germany. After political circumstances curtailed his film career, he increasingly focused on theatre and television, appearing in numerous series from the 1960s onward, including Till, der Junge von nebenan, Tatort, and Ein Herz und eine Seele. Despite later being affected by multiple sclerosis, he continued working in television and public readings into the 1990s. Moik was also a prolific German dubbing artist, providing the voice for actors such as David Hemmings, Mickey Rooney, George Peppard, and Earl Holliman.
