Lutz Mackensy (b. 1944) is a German actor who dubbed the voice of Bob in the first four seasons of Sesamstrasse and on records, prior to the introduction of German-produced street scenes. He later voiced Bob again, in Die Abenteuer von Elmo im Grummelland (The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland). As the regular dubbing voice for Philip Michael Thomas on Miami Vice, he also voiced Tito in the "Miami Mice" spoofs on Sesamstrasse.

Other Muppet/Henson dub credits include Dr. Bunsen Honeydew in the German dub of It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie, Ivan the Guard in the dub of Muppets Most Wanted, and others.

On camera, Mackensy played Police Kommissar Zimmerman on the detective series Stubbe- Von Fall zu Fall from 1995 to 2014 and appeared in multiple episodes of Tatort. In dubbing, he became the primary German voice of Stanley Tucci (including Captain America: The First Avenger), Christopher Lloyd (including the Back to the Future sequels), and Rowan Atkinson (as Mr. Bean, in Black Adder, and others). He dubbed Derek Jacobi in Gosford Park, Geoffrey Rush in Shakespeare in Love and others, Pierce Brosnan in the 1989 version of Around the World in 80 Days, and Gene Kelly in Take Me Out to the Ball Game. Cartoon roles include Mr. Ping in the Kung Fu Panda movies, Barkis Bittern in The Corpse Bride, Flash Gordon on Defenders of the Earth, and Lord Bravery on Freakazoid!
