Hans Moebus (born Johann Möbus, September 23, 1902-April 3, 1976) was a German actor. He played the character of a casino patron opposite Barry Nelson's American James Bond in 1954's Casino Royale.

Han Moebus drifted to Hollywood in the 1920s where he started out as an extra in films. However, with the coming of World War II, his career took an upward swing because of the growing anti-German sentiment. If there was a Nazi scene or a foreign military scene Moebus was most likely there either with dialogue or collecting a paycheque as a high ranking official.

By the 1950s, Moebus found success by appearing in television through his usual roles as diplomats and various foreign leaders. By the late 1950s, the now wrinkled and serious faced Moebus found himself traversing the unique path of gritty detective dramas and the unpaved streets of televisions old west. Hans Moebus retired in 1973 and passed away in 1976 leaving behind a great body of work spanning many different generations and boom periods of interest in various subjects.
