Günter Lüdke (1930-2011) was a German actor and voice artist who dubbed Eliot Shag in the German version of Dog City and, for a time, the right head of the Two-Headed Monster on Sesamstrasse.

Active in German television and cinema in the 1960s, Lüdke was a regular on the crime/adventure series Polizeifunk ruft (as assistant Herr Bollmann) and Percy Stuart (as the club butler James, opposite Claus Wilcke, later to dub Ace Hart). He appeared in the Edgar Wallace "krimi" film The Forger of London and in episodic roles on Tatort and Grossstadtrevier. For the 1993 season of the German puppet series Hallo Spencer, with a five episode story arc involving a school for dragons, Lüdke supplied the voices only of dragon teacher Professor Schlotter and the dinosaur classmate Saurius.

Dubbing assignments included Lew Ayres and other guest stars on Columbo, bit parts on Bonanza and Mannix, Peter Sallis in Witness for the Prosecution, and Frank Dawson in The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (1939). In animation, he voiced Farmer Smurf on The Smurfs, Verminous Skumm on Captain Planet, and Karl Rossum on Batman: The Animated Series, while audio tape roles include the ringmaster in several Dumbo titles. For video games, he voiced characters in two Harry Potter games and Herman Toothrot in Escape from Monkey Island.
