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.
